So my Thai Con is gorgeous, I love her so much, but I’m trying to get her to grow faster. She’s just a little guy and hasn’t given a new leaf in about 3 months. Thoughts please????

    I think they are just slow growers. I'm making sure mine has the best light I can offer and hope for the best 😂.

    She probably took a bunch of time to adapt to the new environment. My Thai Con also grow very slow. Also maybe try the plant light

      Yeah she’s under a grow lamp. But I’ll just give her time I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️

      I see, then just give her some time! Mine didn’t grow out the first leaf for almost half year, they can be picky. Also almost 4 months after I put up a grow lamp, it finally has a big leaf recently

    Honestly mine grows like a weed…. I’d try more light, keep the pot small, fertilize often!

      You could also try getting a higher wattage grow light! That helped mine a lot, I have a 40watt and it’s about 1.5 feet above the tallest leaf! I’ve also noticed it helped the newer leaves coming in get better variegation!!

    Lots of light, chunky aroid soil, small pot…TPS monstera fertilizer from Amazon.

    They are slower growing than their normal counterparts because they lack some chlorophyll, which is what plants need to grow. Mine only grew taller, no shoots yet 🥲
