Hey, it’s me again! I was watering my girl today. When I noticed she has gnats, is it the soil or am i overthinking it? Or how do you suggest getting rid of them? Thanks in advance!

Monsters Update: 1. I transferred Betsy into soil and a pot this week! I gave her a left over orchid trellis as a stake since that was the smallest stick I could sing for her. I changed her settings in planta and it said that I needed to water her today, but I’m pretty sure that it’s too early since I watered her when she was put into soil. I tried to fix the watering schedule, but was unable to find a way to adjust it, so if anyone has any way to fix this please give me some advice. Her newest leaf also fully unfurled and is about twice the size of her previous leaves I believe, so hopefully she’ll have some fenestrations soon. 2. I got my second monstera today! It’s a Thai constellation from Home Depot. I got a smaller, immature one since they were the healthiest of the Thais, but it already has a hole in it! I moved it into some fresh soil since the soil it was in was a bit too wet and heavy for my liking and I gave it a good watering. It’s been treated for any pests it might have (I didn’t see any) and is now living out a week long quarantine before joining the other plants. His name is Clarence.

Thinking 🤔 about separating my monstera. Any advice or opinions?

First moss pole, I kinda got 6 so I might have to put some in a pothos too

He just wouldn’t leave that leaf!!! Was there for nearly 3 full days!!! I wore my leaf cleaning gloves and successfully evicted him to the wild. Felt good watching him scurry away to find his much needed next meal!🪴🦎🤗

I’ve got this silica to add to my albo, do I need to add this in every water? Thanks

all right team, my newest leaf on my Monstera just popped out some varigation, which is so extremely fun! However, it is also now touching the ceiling.… It’s growing on a moss pool with two stems, but one is shorter than the other. I’m gonna chop and prop it at some point but want to get at least three mature Monstera’s out of chopping it. I also really want to encourage the varigation growth! Anyone have any recommendations?

I came home to be scream giggling in excitement when I saw the newest leaf on my albo already pushing another new leaf after 3 months 😍😍 side note: it took 9mos to push the first one after taking it home. 1st photo after showering in water last night, no leaf yet 2nd photo from this evening, baby leaf 🥹 3rd photo from April

My mum broke a stem of my monster, but it’s still a little connected :( is there anyway to save it or do I need to chop it. Trying to avoid it, my plant only has 2 leaves at this moment so if I have to cut it I’ll only have one and very little hope of it surviving :(

The one leaf on my monstera propagation has been getting REALLY yellow. The other leaves are fine, but I’m not sure why it’s just the one. I’ve been trying to give it more sun but I’m wondering if it’s anything else. Any advice is highly appreciated :]

My Leafy Life
After two years, Monster has fenestrations! Granted, it's only her two newest leaves but it's a start. 🙂 She went from 6 to 8 inches to 2 feet 2 inches tall in that time. If she gets much taller, I'm not sure where I'm going to put her or how I'm going to water her. What do people do when they get so tall and heavy you can't carry them? Is there a way to keep them smaller without killing them?
