And appreciate that cat. Such an adorable sweetie

Thanks! He’s my curious, ever present plant care assistant.

I love that your cat had to make sure he was the one being appreciated! I turn my plants about 1/4 every few days and it seems to help them stay balanced.

I have that same pot for my monstera on a very similar stand  
Love it

Thai cons are definitely growing on me. I've seen a bunch at my local nursery lately and I have been considering getting one. I've heard they are harder than regular monstera deliciosa. How has your experience been growing yours? It's beautiful and healthy looking. 😍

#### Jcook replied on 2025-07-07

Thanks! I don’t have a regular monstera, but the two Thai con’s I do have are pretty manageable. They get bright indirect, some direct, sunlight from a south facing window and get 20-50% humidity in my house. I have the large form variety so they don’t grow as fast as the regular monstera and I haven’t needed to add support yet.

Have you fertilized at all?

#### Jcook replied on 2025-07-07

I could do better with consistency, but I try to use one of these four every 3rd or so waterings. The ones on the outsides are a little more niche (silica for the variegation and myco for beneficial fungus root health) but otherwise I try to keep it simple.

Thanks for the pic! I'm always super interested in what other people use for fertilizer. It's actually pretty reassuring to see other people use miracle gro too. I've been seeing that TPS brand on Amazon a lot especially with their variety of specialized fertilizers. Have you tried anything else from them?

#### Katomarose replied on 2025-07-08

Also, do you use silica on all your variegated plants?
