Is there a reason why are my aerial roots on my monstera stop growing?

I don't see a lot of growth on my in winter. Or if they are super well watered, high humidity.

I’d have to agree with Wolfen, I only get little nubs. Except the ones in my cabinet with a higher humidity

#### Karilisa respondió el 2024-12-02

Yeah in summer they were definitely growing, now that is winter they have stop i may get a humidifier

It could be also because it’s not on a moss pole and on a coco coir pole instead, which doesn’t hold as much moisture as a typical moss pole which would stop the growth. Also when the heat is on during winter the air gets dry without much humidity, which leads to lesser growth. Monsteras don’t really need moss poles or coco coir poles if you don’t want aerial roots and you don’t want them to climb as much. But if you want them to climb and also have the benefit of easy propagation then moss poles are the way to go!

I made a moss pole but i am scared to replant it right now since its winter here and the heather are on i wont want it to go into a shock so i may be both, thank you

Oh good! Yeah I’d wait till the spring to do that repot and moss pole.

Honestly, mine is on a broomstick handle and grows just fine. Obviously not as much in winter, but its been getting the job done. Jank gardening loool. I plan on repotting and giving it more support in the spring bc omggg is it top heavy. Better than me with an actual trellis haha 🤣 it's probably the most goofy and questionable way I've been climbing the guy, or taking care of plants with as a whole.
