Any advice to help my Monsterra get fuller? It got sun burnt a while back so that’s why some of the older leaves look bad but I’ve since learned my lesson the hard way lol. I’ve had this plant for a few years now - grown from a gifted cutting - and it’s always looked a little sparse. It does seem to be getting some good new growth so hoping it’s just a matter of waiting for those to fill in?
Bought a monstera from Ikea and instantly split them into 3 separate pots. Two with two plants and one with just one. I know it’s a risk when you first bring them home but had to get it into better soil mix. Anything to look out for? One of them has a big black spot and another has a small brown spot.
You were not here 5 days ago when I watered you…
My baby has thrips😭😭💔
I’ve ditched the moss pole and upgraded to a trellis. This is so much better! I feel like I can really train it to grow in a much more pleasing way. Had to go up in size for the new pot. It was so hard to get it out of the old pot because the air roots that I had stuck back into the dirt had fused themselves to the inside of the pot! A couple of days after repotting, most of the leaves have all turned foward.
ADVICE PLEASE: I’ve had this Monstera for about 2 years and she has grown out great but she is looking a little wild. What is the best way to make her look better? Should I divide it up? The moss poles don’t really do anything for it😭
Hello. I got a monstera that ended up getting a really bad fungus gnat infestation so i broke the stems up and completely changed out the soil. The separate stems seem to be going south so I wanted to see if the experts on here has any advice before it’s too late. My concerns being the yellow leaves and black on the biggest leaf in the last image. I’m trying to dry them out because of the previous gnats so the soil is quite dry.
My beautiful Esperanza finally getting fenestrations 🥰 I have nurtured her from a seed. She has grown super fast!
I was hoping for some green…
I need the best Monstera soil mix either you prep it or buy it. Mine needs to be repot like now. I normally in the past used Mollys but I cannot find it anywhere. ??????
Got a grow light today! This is how I placed it….would you change anything?
Anyone looking for a Thai Constellation - I stopped into my local Walmart supercenter today to checkout the end of summer garden clearance. My store (Monona, WI) had at least a dozen Thai monsteras that didn't look dead yet, many other plants that looked awful. Not sure the price or if they were even on sale. Just wanted to share.
Almost identical new growth on 2 different plants at the same time!😍
Hello All! a few months ago i acclimated a number of Tc’s. This beauty has been doing so well… Unfortunately I did not label her. What Monstera do I have here? Thank you!!😊
Hi! So this is my monstera. She’s gone through some rough patches. Just wondering if anyone had any ideas or ways I can help her. I know the leaf on the left is dying but should I cut it? I’m new to monsteras. The leaf on the right is pretty new. Only like a month old. Appreciate any and all tips! Thanks (The picture on the left is it on July 12th so we’re doing good so far)
I have this leggy Mini that I am thinking about chopping. There are aerial roots up top that I could pot. What can I do about the legginess at the bottom? Advice?
What are you guys cleaning your leaves with? I bought mine a month ago and I used Luke warm water and a microfiber towel but I’m noticing a lot of gnats and wanted to know if there is anything else I can clean with that might help that? I have already bought gnat traps and plan on watering with 1 part hydrogen peroxide next watering day to try to attack the larvae
I would like to purchase my first Monstera to be placed near a window in our guest room. I’d like it to eventually be 3-4 feet tall. Any recommendations on which to buy?
Kinda a crappy picture but I’m so excited about my new addition! This Albo is soooo beautiful! It’s so dangerous that I work at Lowe’s and I’m good friends with our plant guy.
This is my unintentional cutting when I separated my large Monstera Deliciosa last about 10 days ago. While the others planted in soil are doing ok 🤞, this one seems to be struggling. The one leaf that’s trying to open has been trying for days. The stem had some brown mushy stuff happening so I just cut it off and sprayed with peroxide. I don’t want to leave it out of water too long for it to callous. Any suggestions?
