My monstera is getting bigger and i want to make sure it’s strong and grows healthy, i feel like i should support it but im not to sure how? should i tie it to the pole? get a pole for each little plant?? Just looking for a little advice on what to do with it?? What will make her happy 🌿✨

Make sure the plant is not so much hurt or crushed of this pole, but yes, it is a great way to support your monstera. It is becoming leggy, so make sure it doesnt completely fall over😅😂

If she was mine I’d remove the coco coir pole and use 3 wood stakes instead. They won’t take up as much room and the monstera won’t mind. It just wants to climb!

i agree, either this or a trellis. coir poles aren’t all that beneficial for monstera

My big chore at repotting this year includes transitioning the coco coir poles I used last year to trellis’ for several plants. Live and learn 😬
