# Okayyy another question about my new Monstera plant. When I bought…

_Posted by Nicole Araya on 2025-05-06_

Okayyy another question about my new Monstera plant. When I bought it, the people at the nursery had said that I picked a very full one. There are tons and tons of roots that I could split this into multiple plants. Should I do this while it is still fairly young or wait?

Doing it while it’s young  
Or waiting
