How would you experienced monstera parents Do with this? I was thinking about repotting it and laying the main stem that is almost horizontal with the ground, into the dirt and have new roots grow. What might you do?

I wouldn’t bury the stem in soil as that can cause root rot which can kill the plant. What I would do is chop the plant where the aerial roots are already forming and either stick it right back into the soil or grow it in water for a few weeks until more roots grow. If there are nodes from the other part of the stem it might grow another plant!

I have tried Moss poles and other different kinds of poles to keep them growing upright. Can you recommend a YouTube video or a way to do that?

Thank you so much for your input. That’s exactly what I was thinking about doing.
