Good light and some silica to prevent any browning on the varigation

Do you add the Silica Gold when watering, or just when misting?

#### Wolfen 🐺 svarade den 2025-03-23

I add it to my watering can. I only mist with distilled so I don't get mineral deposits on the leaves

So pretty! Give it lots of light, fertilize often, and only water when the soil is dry! Definitely invest in a good chunky aroid mix when you repot to help prevent root rot. Check out Kill This Plant on YouTube! He has tons of good advice that really helped me when I got my first monstera. They’re such awesome plants! You’re absolutely gonna fall in love with monsteras! ❤️🥰

Thai Constellation are sensitive to too much light. So it doesn’t need to be directly in a window. Too much can brown the white. It’s not picky on soil really. Just one that’s got good aeration. It’s also a slow grower so don’t be worried if it’s not pushing out as many leaves as quickly as a regular Monstera.
