Does Herman look like he needs any support yet? And, what is your recommended support system?

Has anyone gotten the Monstera Tai plant from Costco? If you have,’please take a photo and share them. The cost is only $29.99. Do you live in an apartment or home and how many Monstera plants do you have?

It’s Herman Monstera, again!!! (I’m actually watching the Munsters right now! 😂) Is the bamboo stick and string combo gentle on his biggest leaf? It was sagging slightly…

Hey everyone! This is my first ever post. I'm writing because I have a concern... Where I live, there's no direct sunlight but we do get indirect sun. I had my monstera in the window sill but now that I have a grow light I want to keep it by my couch (about 6-8 feet away from window). I'm unsure if this is a bad decision. AI says it should be okay, even thrive and grow, using basically only the grow light. PLEASE let me know, I really do like my monstera. Monstera deets: Water propagated about a month or two ago. Transfered into pot like a month ago or so idk. Feels pretty rooted in, no budging. Slightly bent, it was a cutting from a massive plant at my mom's. (Photo taken at night so it's dark sorry!)

I mounted a lattice panel to my wall to support my big monstera, and this is the first big leaf I’ve gotten since. I can’t wait to watch it unfurl, there are so so so many holes.

Is this mold or some kind of eggs…..? 😭 my beautiful Thai Con. She’s doing well aside from one leaf turning brown on the tip. She has two new leaves coming through currently.

Herman and I have been getting to know each other for about 2 weeks now! He seems happy, other than a bit of yellowing new growth at the soil level. He’s still in Walmart’s mix. What’s the best soil mix to transfer him to? He came in a wick system self watering pot…

Hi everyone! I recently joined this group and I’m thrilled to get your advice. My monstera is thriving. It has a baby plant and a larger one that’s currently supported. The roots are also growing quite long. I’d love to know your suggestions for supporting the larger plant and managing the long roots.

Just rotated Herman. Do they like that, for light variety? Or, should I do that if they’re the kind that leans toward the light? Herman is my first Monstera…

Is my grow light too close to my Thai?

My Leafy Life

Question: Will this node wrap around the closest pole or will it continue to grow in this direction? You can see one of the other nodes by going to the plants photos. She has really exploded in growth since someone suggested I move her to get more sun! These nodes were barely a half inch long before I moved her a few months ago and now look at them. I'm so happy!

How to fix this? Dark spots on some of her leaves. She was just repotted.

Got these gloves today from Amazon! Super easy and gentle on the plant! Herman Monstera loved his little spa treatment!🪴🥳

This Monstera Deliciosa is ready for some support, and I am unsure whether I should get a moss pole or trellis. It’s been growing like crazy. I’ve repotted him twice in the last 2 months due to circling and escaping roots. What are the pros and cons of each support, and what have people’s experiences been?

I just bought this Monstera Standleyana ‘Albo Variegata’. Should I add some support right away? And if so, what should I use and where exactly should I place it? It’s super tiny, not quite 4.5 inches.
