I hope ya'll enjoy me chopping up one of my favorite plants! I'll be sure to do an update on how these cuttings root. Hope it's not a million degrees where you are too..
Just chopped my thai constellation yesterday. I also chopped some of the roots because they’re very large and healthy. Will the chopped roots also grow shoots eventually? I think the answer is yes but I’m just worried that I did the wrong thing because I haven’t seen videos or articles about growing from thai constellation chopped roots. Thanks!
I know how you feel, I cut my Monstera "Albo-Variegata" a few weeks ago and just found roots growing at the bottom of one of the pots and got really excited :D The difference was since they had strong aerial roots I potted them directly and it seems it worked! I do live in Costa Rica, a pretty humid place so that makes a difference for sure.
I just brought my two Monstera plants inside the house for the winter. Loving them inside, but can’t wait to add them back to the garden next summer. Thank for this. I might be brave enough to try this sometime soon.😊😊
@@MandiMomOf9Channel check your local hardware stores, supermarkets, sometimes they can get nice Monsteras. You should see the Monstera I found at Fred Meyers (local supermarket) its 2 meters in diameter, 20 leaves nearly the size of my torso and 4 feet tall, for 30 bucks.
I did five cutting and I been puting them right away on dirt, and they been doing fine as long you keep them moistered. I love them. I'm looking to get the white one
This is so helpful! My Medusa-like Monstera cluster is out of control big - over 4 feet tall with my sloppy staking, and I can't even measure the diameter. I wasn't really sure what to do with it, and am worried it can't be super healthy with the weight on some of the arms. This gave me a great idea for my office. About 15 of us (out of 250) returned to the office in June 2021 after having been out since March 2020, and we hope to bring everyone else back this spring. Most people left their plants behind thinking we'd be back after a few weeks. That was an eerie discovery - even the bamboo. :( I'm going to replace the deads with Monstera babies. Oddly, one person also had a little jar of sea monkeys and two of the four survived in the dark office. Go figure. I hope to have a small jungle by April.
That snipping sound is ASMR to me too 😂 Love your channel. So chill and authentic ❤ And those experiments is what really helps accumulating knowledge :)
If put in cuttings directly into soil after big root is finger length mine just started to turn its leafs up meaning its very much alive and growing now.
Hello I really NEED HELP with my Monstera Deliciosia .. Monstera End of the stem started rotting. And it had just one mushy Arial root... I had no choice but to cut the stem just right there.. will it survive. ?? Can send u a pic
I’ve just got two albo cuttings. I started propagating in perlite but both started rotting so now moved to water and one is still rotting. How do you avoid this? I really don’t want to lose my cuttings!!
Your Thai constellations is very beautiful! You are very brave to chop it all up. I have a juvenile plant and it hasn't produced very large leaf, though I like it a lot. Just found your channel and immediately subbed! Looking forward to your updates. By the way how your cuttings are doing? Have they grown a new leaf? Thanks for sharing and happy growing.
When I propagate my plants, I do change the water weekly or so, (whenever it starts to look cloudy). I'll rinse off the roots in the sink., rinse out the jar, and refill it with fresh water. The reason is, you don't really want bacteria growing especially when the cutting has gone through the initial "shock" from being cut off, and also as it's growing and becoming its own plant.
I wish they sold one here in Netherlands but i only wanna get one at garden center due pest issues and can't go to garden center until after pandemic is gone 😷
I didn't - I just put them straight into water. I think I would add rooting hormone/cinnamon if I was doing soil propagation or sphagnum propagation but the water wipes it all away.
Well all my Monsteras were seriously floppy and were constantly trying to fall/jump out of their pots. I added the top dressing to both weigh the pots down and also solidify their stake. It also helps the soil stay consistently moist AND the gravel keeps the soil from pouring out when I'm watering. I chose 1/2"-3/4" gravel because it still allows some ventilation. If I had a fungus gnat issue, I would probably not do a top dressing so that the soil can dry out completely and kill those little dudes.
Wow! I've never seen an aerial root become a root that is a drinking root. Aerials CAN take in water but don't necessarily do so...that's my understanding from my reading.
I been looking for the thai monstera but it's hard as finding Toilet paper! Any recommendations? Love to get some cuttings. And couple days ago I saw someone selling seed of monstera is it even real? Seeds? Lol
behold! it's beheaded. I like your series, James, as I too share plants and gardening as hobbies. However, it's usually just me in my head talking jibberish to myself. You put an externalized voice to the hobbies and none of the jibberish. I did chuckle at your use of the word 'beheaded'; fitting perhaps but hasn't occurred to me previously. Enjoy!
I often wondered if adding seaweed or fish emulsion fertilizer would help cutting grow roots faster. So, I'm anxious to know if that works for you. Would the addition of the seaweed fertilizer required the water to be changed more often or is it about the same? I always learn a lot from your videos and appreciate you taking the time making them!
It's an interesting question. I've been changing the water on my plants I'm propagating (with or without seaweed) every three or four days. I find in either situation, there begins to be a bit bacteria/microorganism build up, but it's especially more evident with seaweed. I've added seaweed to Rhaphidophora cuttings in the past with no harm but I don't know 100% SURE that it's helpful, but it hasn't been harmful. Best answer I can give so far!
I hope ya'll enjoy me chopping up one of my favorite plants! I'll be sure to do an update on how these cuttings root. Hope it's not a million degrees where you are too..
Just found your updates and watching now. Thanks.
Ummmm you’re adorable!!!
So funny 😂
Awesome!!! So jealous

I love how chill you are while cutting into a plant that would cost a few hundred dollars. Pretty sure I'd be shitting my pants

This is gotta be one of the most satisfying videos I’ve watched. Lol! Great job!
*I have so many plants, but I've still never had a Monstera. I really hope someday 😌 I've been dying for a Monstera forever*
Why don't you just buy one? 💚

@@RamsdellProductions I had one and it died. I've been so busy I couldn't keep up with my plants (plus I somehow ended up with too many plants) 🌱🌿
Your videos are so helpful. I just purchased an albo cutting with a super long aerial root and you’re the only one who explains it. Thank you!
I have just got my first monstera cutting, and I wondered what will happen to the mother plant after taking a cutting. So THANK YOU
Just got my first Thai C plant and Albo rooted cutting today. Thanks for the tips! Looking forward to seeing them grow!

It's Exciting... new babies to take care off... and love the sound, almost like AMSR.. love it
Do Thai Constellations have an axillary bud or "eye?" I propagated mine and can't seem to find the bud but there is a bump by the aerial root.
I use the wide mouth quart jars too! They really help support larger sized cuttings and I can put leca clay balls in there as well...
Thai constellation monstera is so pretty! Ty for sharing! 👍🏼💕🌿

Great video and yes it was satisfying watching you propagate I bet by now you have 5 beautiful plants.
I really love your channel and the way you talk.
I’ve just had the second new leaf since Spring (now summer). How long until i can propagate? Will you do it after the new leaf is mature?
Such a satisfying sound
Great video per usual! Where did you buy your variegated /Thai constellation ? My Bday is next Tuesday so I’m thinking of gifting myself one 😬
I think this one came from Sprout in Chicago!
I want one 😩😩 … they are beautiful

Is it safe to immerse stem w/ node but without leaf in the water, will it survive?
Thanks for sharing this! For sure will be trying this in the future :)

Super helpful video!!!! No one really has any good videos with updates for variegated Monsteras. Also, sent you a message on Instagram! :)
I'm glad you enjoyed!!
I just stumbled across your channel and i love it, I just subscribed! Can’t wait to watch your channel grow over the years:)

Thank you! I have posted a few updates from these, so be sure to check them out! They're doing great.
Can you please put locks to the updates? Trying to find them!
Such a useful info. Thank you very much. I will try it out :)
Awesome roots! Quick question, did you have to change the water ever so often when propagating your cutting?
When I propagate my plants, I do change the water weekly or so, (whenever it starts to look cloudy). I'll rinse off the roots in the sink., rinse out the jar, and refill it with fresh water. The reason is, you don't really want bacteria growing especially when the cutting has gone through the initial "shock" from being cut off, and also as it's growing and becoming its own plant.
I wanna ask, what is the tips to grow bigger leaves ?
Wow , nice video! What potting mix do you use?
I wish they sold one here in Netherlands but i only wanna get one at garden center due pest issues and can't go to garden center until after pandemic is gone 😷
So you put the whole stem in water with the seaweed ans what else?
Heya, do you have to let the cut dry first? I'm afraid that it gets moldy and my cutting would die =(
DreamRice personally i only let cacti and succulents dry and callous. Haven’t had rotting issues - just make sure you use clean water!
@@Baetanical Okay! Thank you very much =)
Thank you for the vid. You make it seem very easy to do. Did you add any rooting hormone or cinnamon to the cutting
I didn't - I just put them straight into water. I think I would add rooting hormone/cinnamon if I was doing soil propagation or sphagnum propagation but the water wipes it all away.
@@Baetanical I had no idea. Do you sell any cuttings or plants of the variegated monsteras?
@@jamieb7342 Not at the moment, sorry!
Wow so many Thai babes! Random question, do you top dress for aesthetic or for fungus gnat prevention?
Well all my Monsteras were seriously floppy and were constantly trying to fall/jump out of their pots. I added the top dressing to both weigh the pots down and also solidify their stake. It also helps the soil stay consistently moist AND the gravel keeps the soil from pouring out when I'm watering. I chose 1/2"-3/4" gravel because it still allows some ventilation.

Where could I get a Thai constellation monstera online ? Live in the Midwest
Hello, I have been looking for this plant for a very long time...can I buy a baby from yours?..OMG 🙏🙏🙏🙏🦋Thanks so much for the video :)
Wow that cutting better than coffee. I'm scared and excited every time you cuttings on those monstera. Can I have one ? Hehehe .
Wow! I've never seen an aerial root become a root that is a drinking root. Aerials CAN take in water but don't necessarily do so...that's my understanding from my reading.
Wish i hv that ones😍😍😍😍
is there such thing as monstera thai cons seeds?
Quero uma muda desta costela variegata 😍😍
