    Yes I’ve seen people do this thousands of times. It also makes it easier to see how the roots are doing! but maybe try to see if you can bring up their stem a little bit more of the water just in case because plants can have stem rot from being too far submerged in water. Especially with monsteras. If their hard to propagate I can’t imagine on how easy it is for them to get stem rot

    Thats how I keep mine and love it. So easy to take care of. It will need fertilizer though. I change my water every 7-10 days and add a diluted hydroponic fertilizer every time. I’d wait a little longer with yours though until it grows more secondary roots (unless I just can’t see them in the photo!) before adding fertilizer.
