I’ve had this Monsterra for almost two years and it’s starting to take over my kitchen.. any advice would be much appreciated🍃🌿🌱 1- I bought a moss pole but she’s so out of control I don’t even know where to start the support. 2- I’ve only propagated a few but never repotted them back. Should I add them back to her pot? 3- she has little new leaves coming in but they’re yellow/green because they’re not getting enough light. any advice? Do I need to separate her? Do you snip off the small new leaves if there’s no room? 4- she has millipedes but online I’ve read it’s fine because they eat dead compost. But sometimes they munch on her good leaves (pictured). Is it okay to leave the millipedes?? ![3개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gOcNxN95WGBNpTuV0YaJv6pucSO5KuxHqTG5hAy1VBs/Q-f0qWnKQwaLmHOM7-pIaw.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gOcNxN95WGBNpTuV0YaJv6pucSO5KuxHqTG5hAy1VBs/XekcC_ZiT0CN-IiNht0JnQ.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/gOcNxN95WGBNpTuV0YaJv6pucSO5KuxHqTG5hAy1VBs/zJ1O9EdMQ3iB4giVlRMNbA.webp?size=large) ## 8개의 댓글 ### Women are Water님이 2024-02-17에 댓글을 남겼어요. Yes. Give her more light but understand that that’s also going to make her grow even bigger lol. This is the picture I saw when doing my research on the plant when determining whether or not to get one. Massive!! Even when grown indoors. Yours is beautiful but you haven’t seen anything yet! Lol Also I’ve never had millipedes but if they were eating my plants they’d have to go. Lol ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/vpyZc8ITdqrtEIsb6abRUlTe_E-H019oUDdZnDiD_MA/pfQJm7LNSO6LeloFATAakg.webp?size=large) #### Sharona님이 2024-02-17에 답변했습니다. Oh my goodness!!!! My tiny apartment could never😂 I was thinking of propagating and gifting parts of her to friends just to keep her at a manageable size.. #### Women are Water님이 2024-02-17에 답변했습니다. That’s a great idea. Share the love ❤️ #### Amie206님이 2024-02-17에 답변했습니다. I dream of having a monstera that big……even though there would be NO WHERE to put her 😂🤣. It’s why I love visiting Arboretums, etc. to see the MASSIVE “houseplants” ### Women are Water님이 2024-02-17에 댓글을 남겼어요. As far as the support, depends on what type of support you purchase. Some are best placed deep in the pot. If it’s a stake for example you could try to push it down but you risk damaging the roots. Ideally I’d say if possible wait until your next repot. But that’s not always possible. #### Sharona님이 2024-02-17에 답변했습니다. Yeah I might wait to open her up.. I have the moss pole which looks like a stake. Do you happen to know what the rule of thumb is for size of pot? #### Sharona님이 2024-02-22에 답변했습니다. Thank you!! 🙏🏻 I’ll try to hold off until spring ### Amie206님이 2024-02-17에 댓글을 남겼어요. I have two monsteras - one at home and one in my office at work. This is the one at home. The one at the office is bigger than yours and MORE out of control because it’s not staked 😬. Plus provides some screening from the hallway window. I decided to use wooden stakes (five of them) to make her more upright. She’s about 5 feet tall and in a 10 (12?) inch heavy ceramic pot. There are a lot of YouTube videos on how to stake a monstera. There is a front and back to the stems and it’s helpful to stake on the back side. Yours will definitely keep growing. Staking will just control the “spread” ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/rLkdsfZry_mmttY12utbuWXEpkypn5xdaSt3fFIquCc/rBT-QLhCTiuvmDYd4WK9qw.webp?size=large) --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
