I think they just grow on their own. Usually for support or more nutrients.

is your monstera on a trellis or is it crawling across the pot? climbing monstera are more likely to produce those monstrous aerial roots we’re all looking for

Yes, water/mist the moss pole. That said, you can also just buy wood stakes (cheaper than a moss pole) to tie it to. Depending on the size of your plant, you may need something like a wood plank vs stake. I got tired of keeping the moss pole wet, and as my plant is over 5 ft tall I needed something more sturdy.
