Okay so I know it’s not a good idea to repot a monstera (or any other plants) in the winter, but what about propagating? Should I wait until Spring or is it okay to propagate now? I have grow lights in lieu of sunlight as I live pretty far up North.

My monstera took a pretty hard hit during a recent move and I’m hoping for any and all recommendations to get some new growth and help the plant. Thanks!

it’s totally okay to repot and propagate indoor plants in most circumstances. as long as your house is relatively warm (bonus points for humidity) it’ll be fine. especially since you have grow lights!

Okay awesome! I also have a South facing apartment so definitely warm and I’m doing my best to keep it humid until I get a humidifier. Thanks!
