1.29.21 I killed it!!!!!!! I got so worried about overwatering it, I ended up underwatering it and it DEAD! =(
im sorry to hear that T.T it's not easy to fully satisfy plants but this video was very informative!
I was just about to ask for update then I saw this, so sorry :( i noticed you used very loose and easy to dry medium maybe thats why you underwater it
The pot didn’t have enough drainage
Sorry to hear that... I thought this plant prefers more water than any others... I have one doing quite fine at the balcony. i couldn't believe I actually dumped one while cleaning up my balcony garden... such a shame :(
I've done that. I used to water too much and got root rot now I'm afraid to overwater. I got a water meter which really helps with the bigger plants.
I think it must be a sign of underwatering/low humidity. I have a small adansonii which a year ago got one slightly yellowed leaf with a bit of brown crisp on the end of it. upped the watering + chopped off the leaf & now my plant is fully green, no yellowing or scarring etc. I think it needs a little more water in the winter than you might think :)
Great video! This is my 1st time running across your videos but I love how detailed you are, very easy to understand, and especially how closely you show exactly what you're doing, how you're doing it and why you're doing it!! Seriously great job!! Can't wait to see the progress/update video on this baby.🤗 #NewSubscriber 🙂 Happy growing! 🌿💚
Thank you! This video was quite a challenge and we had a lot of fun making it so really happy to hear that you enjoyed it! Its winter so I am not expecting much to happen. good news is that it hasn't continued to yellow, its most likely i under watered it and maybe it needed more nutrients. Will post another update when I see things turn around. a lot of my plants are not happy about winter...
All 3 of mine were browning and dying...got frustrated and kicked them out. I kept them near my orange tree...now, they are green and huge! Never knew these little leaves could grow so big! Mahalo for your vids
Aww thx learns a new word today! Are you still in Hawaii? Paradise!💚
I've had the same problems with bottom leaves yellowing, despite letting the plant thoroughly dry out between watering. I don't see any sign of insects. I just took it out of the nursery pot and realized that the pot had very poor drainage. I drilled about 25 holes in the nursery pot so hopefully this fixes the problem!
My adansonii is eagerly climbing a bamboo ladder, large leaves in the summer and smaller in the winter! That potting mix looks perfection, sending love from England ✨
Thank you! =) 💚
I have two. It took me awhile to get the leaves to stop yellowing. They really prefer medium light, despite what the internet says. Medium light, ignore this plant untill it's mostly dry, then water thoroughly and don't water again untill it's almost completely dry. Ignore it and it will grow like a weed. Mine just grows up the macrame hanger strings and across the ceiling. They want to climb.
i mean, heres the thing. ALOT of shops sell them improperly miss named. there is many many many monstera species that mimic adansonii. tbh if you didnt know any better would just say adansonii or the cringy "swiss cheese" and not saying you dont know this, but! ALLmay have different light requirements and humidity. some NEED bright indirect while others may hiss at it. some like lots of humidity while others dont, i have one thats dark and felty and HATES being wet on the leaves. i have quite a few species myself that were miss labeled and tbh its kind of a bonus xD but ID'ing them is a pain sometimes.
My Adansonii has had a moss pole for a while, it shot up very quickly when I first put the moss pole in and it went a bit leggy and had large long stems with gaps where leaves should be. Luckily it has filled out over time and I even took cuttings from the top to prop and put back in to fill out the bottom of the plant which helped a lot. It was one of my first houseplants besides succulent and cacti so it has a special place in my heart, even if it's super common.
Searching for why my adansonii started yellowing with brown tips and came across your video! I will start with a repot and check out your soil video!
Good luck!
Hi… how’s your adansonii now? mine is a challenge, too
Mine is on a moss pole and it loves it! The leaves are starting to get pretty big since adding it 7 months ago.
Great video and I loved the editing :)
Thank you so much! Its means a lot to us! Have a great sunday!😊
Cool video and nice editing, short but very informative :)
Thank you for the feedback! 😊 It's been difficult making longer video, we want to good content and we end up with very short vids 🤦😆
@@BotanicalWoman Not everyone has time for 20 minute videos, this was helpful and your editing and images were excellent.
love the style of this video!
Thank you for your feedback! Happy you enjoyed it!
Mine has started to do the same thing after being really happy and growing really well. I’m hoping it bounces back. Can’t wait to see how yours is doing.
I hope your recovers as well. Will keep you updated if things change!
In the wild or in nature the older leaves do die off anyway. Mine has climbed a tree and only the end few feet has leaves. You have done well!
That was a great video. I'm new to this video but so glad I found it (3 years later). My Monstera Adansonii isn't too happy with me right now. I got thrips (thanks to another plant) and although it doesn't appear to have anything right now, it's definitely mad at me. Some leaves are turning pale/yellow like yours and I have 1 stem that is growing but no leaves are sprouting. I've been waiting to spring to re-pot it but I may have to intervene before then. Anyone with any suggestions on how I can keep thrips away and care for this Monstera Adansonii please let me know. This new plant parent welcomes the help!
Can’t wait for an update!
Me too! I hope it gets better! Thank you for watching!!!!! =) Enjoy your sunday! =)
What soil mixture did you use? I loved this. Yours is so pretty! Mine is currently on a moss pole. She always has new growth 🥺
I had this problem with the adansonii and deliciosa. I tried everything and nothing worked, then I started misting them daily. That was it, they were lacking humidity in my house because my outdoor Monstera was doing great. I’m careful to not over water and I make sure to mist daily, if not, every other day. I’m finally not killing my indoor monsteras.
I recently got strong grow lights and the next day my Adansonii suddenly was yellowing. I tend to think its too much light in my situation. Perhaps this could be yours as well. Since u switched to supplemental light. Nice to find u on here!!! We met at the plant swap/annual plant sale at conservatory. Great video!!
maybe, i haven't thought of that. Hi Jennifer! Are you the one that came will a millions plants to our plant meet up? How are you?!
Your plant may be too close to the grow light
Just a thought....
I've been so frustrated by this plant. Not sure why it keeps yellowing. I tried varying watering frequencies but still the same
In that cause I would move on and ask hows the medium? its wants a well draining medium to do this i usually add perlite. What is it potted it in right now?
Mines too and it won't grow. I get new leaves but no thickness nor height. Its frustrating. And I still have baby leaves but when I got the cuttings the were medium sized before they gave up the ghost, yellowed and died😡
I m in the same boat guys, all my plants are happy but this one is being such a diva. I ve had it for half a year and all I get is a headache and no joy. Tried reporting without any success. Atm trying to increase humidity
Mine too. 🥲 how did you guys treat her?
I feel tbe same! 😔😔 mine is in very tall pole i made but not in great condition. I think i have underwatered it also.
I have had mine's for about 3 months and since has been repotted however recently I have had a few yellow leaves so I moved near a window and I am monitoring it to see how it reacts to being moved
I got my little “Ponciano” about a month ago (I named after my grandfather) and seems to be happy then started to get yellow too and I'm driving crazy haha, it's been the most difficult plant to take care, I have one on earth and another in water
its definitely sensitive to underwatering. otherwise, its hasn't been too bad. i want to chop mines up 😬
And They Say Its A Easy Plant To Take Of Lol
The most common nutrient problem associated with chlorosis is lack of iron, but yellowing may also be caused by manganese, zinc, or nitrogen deficiencies.
Cool video. Lovely camera work, short and precise. Loved it. Mine is on a moss pole btw. They've gripped onto it and are thriving now
Thank you for noticing! lol how do you get your moss pole to stay moist? I feel like thats the most challenging for most folks?
Oh what! My plant has the same pattern, yellowing here and there with a bit of brown patches. I changed the soil, watered it, and it started showing a lot of new growth! Seemed happy for a good week and started showing up with those leaves again. Hmmm
Hello I love your videos they are so easy to follow and understand. My question is. What is the green rope you have around this plant....
Thank you! I use to be a middle school teacher so it helps. its actually a small tomato cage i got from Daiso, a japanese chain.
Very good video
Thanks Alia!
I have them growing in my frog terrariums and they love it there! They are both growing on mopani wood my 3rd one isn’t in a terrarium and just doesn’t grow as fast or as much as the other 2 in the terrariums? Also, no yellowing from any of them. I only fertilize my plumerias which are outside (SoCal). I do use worm castings in my soil mixture & most of my plants were repotted this past spring/summer.
I imagine they would love being in a terrarium. I also use a small amount of worm casting. Are you on Instagram? would love to see your planties! instagram.com/botanical_woman/
I put my roots in my fish tank and my monstersas went BOOM.. like gripple growth in a month. It's gotten huge. My fish hide in the roots and all seem to be happy.
Make sure your fish don't nibble on it bc they are toxic.
great tips! mines on a moss pole but I think my brown tips are due to me letting the soil to dry out a bit too much.. I'm afraid to over water so I intentionally rather under water.
Yeah, i think thats why mines goes brown tips too. and it's going to stay that way now! Arg! When you repot it, add more drainage to counter your overwatering. I have started to do that with a few of mines, adding more bark and perlite.
Monstera adansonni like moist soil and misting. Soil that is too dry might kill it.
You can water it when the top of the soil is dry.
Loved the video, what medium did u used?
check out my potting medium video. its basically what i used.
I’d love to see the plant now
it looks the same really, the leaves that turned yellow stayed yellow...I want to chop it up!
Hello! How is this plant doing now? My Monstera has the same problem and I would like to repot it but I read that I shouldn't do that in the winter. But if I don't do it now I'm sure that the yellow leaves will only become worse! What do you recommend?
I just got one of these a month ago. It is very rootbound but I dont know how to untangle the roots without damaging them. Its dropping leaves like crazy and the nudes they drop from get brown and mushy. The leaves are brown and yellow and I am very concerned that it is going to perish
Mine is growing well after clipping the yellow leaves.
Can you help me.. I have questions... I bought a adansonii about a month ago it started dropping leaves from the day I bought it. Not sure if there is such a thing as a bad plant but it started with 4 leaves spry and everything now there's 3 and 2 of them are dropping.. there was a new growth coming in when I bought it. But it hasn't grown in since.. I think I've lost this plant but I'm trying to save it. Any advice?!
i just received some rooted cuttings and i've planted them in a draining ceramic pot. i've checked the soil and its not too wet nor too dry but i keep getting random leaves that are yellowing and turning black, as well as some leaves that are just straight-up thin and dry. I can't figure out for the life of my what is wrong with them! at first, i thought it was just stress from the shipping but its been a few days now and it hasn't recovered too much. what should i do : ( I was so excited to get this plant but its my saddest one so far.
also, what did you use in this video as a support for them to vine upwards? looks like a tomato rack?
It's a mini tomatoes rack I got it at daiso. Black to me means rotting. Give it some time? It's take a good month for your plant to adjust to it's new environment.
@@BotanicalWoman thank you for responding! calm my anxieties about this plant bc i was really excited for a lush adansonii haha
As long as new growth comes in healthy then you're good!
I thought a bug ate it because of a big hole in the leaf, but it looks like that. It's a unique and wonderful plant.👍,.,
lol do they not have this plant in your country? it's pretty common now in the US
🤣🥰
I plant it in water..do you have tips for make it grow..bec mine like doesn't want to grow bigger
Did it go into shock after repotting? I repotted mine about a month ago, she was glorious before and now is so sad and yellowing.
no, not that I noticed. sorry to hear, its so sad when the leaves yellow.
I hv adansonii too at my house for 5 years
thats amazing! Share your secret with us!
My stems are falling off as if someone made a cut from root. How to care for such monsteras?
I don’t Know if you’ll respond but I stumbled upon this video as a got a propagated monstera adansonii four days ago
The seller told me that the plant was ready for soil, so I did but now it gots two yellow leaves (had four total) and the other two are tinting yellow 😩 should I cut out the two yellow leaves ?
maybe too wet? what were you propagating it in? water?
Tried fertilizing.
Tries changing lighting.
Tried feeding it calcium.
One plant i gave up on
lol I finally killed mine cause i forgot to water it. I just don't have patience with it.
Hello I just came across your video I do realize it's like a two-year-old video I was looking at your swiss cheese plant and was wondering by any chance are you willing to give a cutting to someone like myself I am trying to get into plants and I am doing them with leca that is easy for me since I'am wheelchair-bound?
My monstera adansonii yellow leaf too
it happens unfortunately...
Have the same problem but also i noticed that ive been getting brown spots on my leaves as well im worried its just gonna keep getting spots everywhere does anyone have tips? Or why is this happening?
Me too. Some have brown/yellow tips not sure exactly what to do.
same
here. pls share once you figured out. thanks
I keep my soil moist, hardly drying out. Aquarium water or filtered water only in mine. The bottom leaves still yellow. I suspect it is the low humidity.
Low leaves yellowing could be old age as well I think. I don't find this plant to be fussy about humidity.
Hi,
Thank you so much for your video. I have bird of paradise and her leaves are turning yellow with brown spots (kind of like your plant) I have no idea what is going on. Please help me 🙏🙏 figure it out what is going on ?
(I wish I could attach a photo for you to see exactly how it looks)
Thank you
not enough light and too much water...that's my guess
@@BotanicalWoman thank you
Does it require lots of sunlight to make it happy?
no direct sunlight, bright indirect light so shade, 400 foot candles should do but thats not to say more like 800 fc wouldn't be good either.
Those roots thoo :-)
Monsteras have a pretty hardy root system, they are built to survive! 😉💚😊
Maybe it can’t take anymore of the chloride, I’m going to start using a filter when watering to see if it helps
Thats not the case for me as i use tab water for all my plants including my more sensitives ones, calatheas. Its most likely do to underwatering in my case. but you can check your tab water as well if you want to know what chemicals are in it etc.
Botanical Woman update! It totally helped no more yellow leaves
@@amandamejia7737 awesome! I am about to chop mines as the yellow leaves will never revert back...
Botanical Woma
My adansonii has yellow leafs too
it's a bit sensitive to watering
Hello...I'm very curious about how this developped, how is she is doing !! 🌱
I killed it! I stopped watering as much which helped but then I missed watering it and it when south! =(
You probably let it dry out too long.sorry to hear that.😢
I just repot mine but instead started yellowing leaves 🍃
I've had to my in plastic pots
I noticed when I let mine dry out leaves turn yellow.
yup! and too wet will also result in yellowing leaves...thats just the way it is
Hai. Hope you may share with is the medium you use ;)
you're in luck! i have a potting medium video =)
What is the new medium that u used?
ua-cam.com/video/-vLx78YKAMI/v-deo.html
Are you using coco coir part of the media?
Yes, if you like to see what i put in my medium watch this video 🙂ua-cam.com/video/-vLx78YKAMI/v-deo.html
Every time I water mine, I get yellow leaves. LOL
Where you buy the moss pole?
i made my own which i have a video on that but you can order on from amazon.
As Swiss cheese vine the bottom leaves die off. This is very normal
that is true but thats not whats happening here
Monstesa adansonii will get yellow leaves if it's old.
Literally all my leaves are turning yellow and I just don't know what to do
check the moisture of your would before you water.
Change the pot to a bigger pot, that worked with mine. Don't water it as much and only water it once a week.
Good tips! Thanks
The quality of your content is actually really great! I can see you put time into it! I started a shoutout series to encourage youtube growth for channels like yours who put a lot of effort into your videos! Swing by my channel when you have time to be apart of it!
Thank you! We enjoy making visually simulating plant videos as plants are beautiful and it also gives use an opportunity to be creative so thank you for noticing! Sounds cool, will check it out! =)
Do u know how to propagate it?
i do
You didn't talk about the compost mix enough, theres no way of being able to determine why you get yellow leaves without that vital piece of information
i am certain that i under watered this plant which is why it has yellow leaves.
@@BotanicalWoman Try adding less perlite or bark to your mix if you're unable to feed the plant when desired
Try not to use straight tap water because the Chlorine will do that to the leaves also you have so many roots so maybe a bigger pot .So Just let your tap water stay in an open bottle exposed to the air for a couple of days and the Chlorine will be gone.
thank you but thats not the problem with this guy plus i don't find monsteras to be sensitive to water the way calatheas are.
@@BotanicalWoman If you have tried everything else then look into iron deficiency as that also causes many plants to yellow on their leaves I use Milorganite fertilizer which comes from the sewage treatment plant in Michigan That has four percent Iron Stereate and you can use it on everything and anything and it will never burn any plant.Just make sure you put it under the soil because it will smell once it gets wet.Sounds gross right. But its been around for decades.
May i know the water tds at your home, please?
Seattle water is considered soft. TDS is pretty consistent around 40-50ppm.
@@BotanicalWoman thank you for the info, because to buy water with TDS around 50 is cheaper, than water with TDS 100 here. Ooh i read at another article, that overwatering can make monstera adansonii leaves yellowing too.
Use distilled water
Here is the complete guide to revive it back gardeninglovy.com/monstera-adansonii/
Good info, thanks for sharing!
Could be your soil mixture, something more draining might do it better.
i definitely underwatered it =*(
Ekk I would not have repotted in that pot with only one drainage hole
you're right, that a large pot like this one with only one drainage hole isn't idea. so you amendment the medium to assist with additional drainage like perlite, charcoal, bark etc. its all about finding a happy balance
I actually think this is a monstera acuminata.
why do you think that?
@@BotanicalWoman The leaves of acuminata are a little bit smaller and darker than the ones from adansonii. Plus they have a sheen on them.
me too, i have 2 slightly diffent adansonii they are still babys, both have leaves double to triple size, one is supposed to be acuminata which i was looking for in the first place, little leaf, very much vines - basically your plant :)
@anqilala interesting I didn't never know there was such a plant...💚😊
@@familienfotografin I just thought mine was the narrow form 🤷♀️
I reported swiss cheese and to shoots are coming out black and ones okay
so basically, you don't know why it has yellowing.. this was not helpful.
Mosaic virus
no
