Hello there! I just got my first Monstera(Thai Constellation) 😊 Please send all of your own personal tips! I have it in a self watering pot for now going to wait a bit and switch it to leca any opinions on that? (Humidifier coming tomorrow)
I personally don't have much experience with semi hydroponics but my biggest tip is that it's gonna need a lot of light to keep the variegation
0 J'aimethe biggest thing imo is that they are more prone to root rot than standard monstera deliciosa. I let mine dry out pretty good before watering. and lots of light.
1 j'aime This is where I have her? Should I get a grow light also?
Like panda said they are very prone to root rot it’s just in their genes so make sure to have them in a very airy soil.
0 J'aimewhat direction is that window facing? usually right up on a window is good, but I would lift the blinds to let in more light. they can take direct sun, though some people may recommend acclimating it to the light first. I have mine in front of my office window which gets direct west afternoon sun.
0 J'aime I get direct west light in the afternoon also! So it should be fine then?
0 J'aimeI think so! I'd just lift the blinds some so it gets some brighter light 🙂
