So I received a giant monster plant yesterday. I called my local plant store and ordered stakes to stand up the plant, fertilizer, potting soil, larger planter, and food spikes for plants. Also twine to hold up my plants I n spikes. Did I order wrong or is this the way to a take care of my plant
Im loving seeing your smaller monstera. I have a baby well had her a year now shes doing good but no where near old enough to have any split leaves. You dont usually see smaller ones in videos so its encouraging to see what mine will hopefully turn out like. I didnt know it would take so long to start seeing split leaves then i saw a big one that needed saving and was 40% off so i had to buy it 😅 great tips!
Thank You. I Love my Monster, just got her today. Bless.... As for watering, I suggest spending alot of time with her at first. Staring at her, Misting her leaves and stems, gently wiping her leaves with warmed filtered rainwater.... soon you can just tell by looking at her if what she needs.. water, food whatever. Almost a telepathic connection... kinda. :) Bless.
One day I kept my monstera in sunlight since it was kept in my bedroom. But that caused leaf burn. Few of the leaves were damaged because of that. So what should I do in this case? Should I remove those leaves or what? Plz help.
Remove the damaged leaves if they are very conspicuous. That will save you the anguish of being reminded of the event. However, u may just leave them on if they don't bother you.
cut off the burnt part of leaf. if you want to keep monstera in sunlight after keeping it in a shadow, you should do it slowly, firstly put it to a place that’s just a little more sunny then previous, after some time (longer better) again move it in more sunny place, and keep doing it each time giving enough time to monstera to adapt to sunlight
Just “leaf” it alone, decrease the sunlight and introduce it to sunlight more gradually. It probably wasn’t too bright, but instead the suddenly increase in light which shocked / burned it
Mine has been growing for the 4mo I have had it. However the leaves have started drooping. Not the entire stwm but just the leafy part at the end of the stem is droopy. I've been so scared to over water, am I underwatering? It is in a fairly bright room w/West facing windows, about 4' from window.
Good video, thank you. I finally bought my first Monstera about 2 years ago. Have to admit, it hasn't gone as smoothly as I expected.. With all my other plants, I've quickly figured out how often they need watering. But with the Monstera I'm just not sure.. When it makes new leaves they tend to turn yellow before growing big ~ trying to figure out if I'm over- or under-watering, or is it a light-issue...
Just noticed roots coming out of the drainage hole, but it’s now early September here in Massachusetts :/ next week will be in the high 70s/80s but is it too late? Should I wait till Spring? Should I separate some out or is it ok to leave the family together?
I know you posted 2 months ago, but I hope you can see this message. I have a mounstera for 8 years . She is beings struggling by movings and different spot through the house. Right now I replanted with a good soil and all the mix that you mention here. Is being 1 week and she look sad and turning yellow. I don’t know what else I can do. By the way she is in my living room windows where she doesn’t get direct light, but is bright. She is big and I notice that she didn’t have too much roots. The pot is the same size , so I don’t know if I had to size down the pot.
Theres a product called leaf shine, its some kind of oil. You wipe it over the leaves and it removes dust and makes the leaves shiny. However, if you use it, the plant will not be able to tolerate direct sunlight for a while. It may burn if you do put it in direct sunlight after that oil is on the leaf.
Water when the top layer of soil is dry. Which 2 weeks seems about right depending on the volume of roots. Could be fertilizer burn 🔥 from excess fertilizer or maybe the soil needs to be leached. Also, try using RO, rain or distilled water.
You get a thumbs down for only giving temperature in Fahrenheit, when the vast majority of the world uses Celsius. Great way to reduce your prospective audience.
@@Bobaaja Oof. I guess now is not a good time to tell you that the calculations used for the moon landings were in metric, huh? Thank you for your contribution to the 'dumb American' stereotype though. 👍

You’ll just have to wait until it out grows the leaf and they drop. You can remove them if it is no more than 25% of the stems

I put my monstera outside for the summer, they burned like crazy but then thrived and put out so much new growth.

When new leaves first appear they are lighter in color and a softer, rubbery tissue. Is that how yours look?
Get a sustee aqua meter.

It'll be fine till spring.
Any know why cheese plan has begun getting yellow leaves at the bottom of the plant
If it’s one or two. Could just be old leaves. If not check you watering, if rootbound or pest. Any of these?
Do you get Fruit on those indoor monsteras?
Good video - thanks! May I ask a really dumb question? Are you meant to turn a monstera periodically or keep it facing the same direction?
Wow beautiful Plants ^^
Like 59
My friend, thank you for good sharing
When is a good time to plant the plant if it's in water

You said you repotted to the same size pot. Did you root prune? Sorry, just trying to better understand.
@@monstrofarm the roots rotted. Sh is big but it doesn’t have to much roots
@@monstrofarm yes
Such a beautiful monstera❤. Do you have many plants in your single pot?
Can you do some content on Hoyas please
Will try to work it in. Thanks for your input. Love to heat what you all want.
I water mine when lifting it up feels light.I give it enough water to make sure everything is wet The excess water runs out through the bottom.
Can we use monstera leaf in compost?
If you’re using the compost to grow ornamentals I don’t see an issue.
What about the brown spots behind the leaves?
Could be pest. Maybe thrips. Look closely.
How do you make the monstera leaves shiny?
Theres a product called leaf shine, its some kind of oil. You wipe it over the leaves and it removes dust and makes the leaves shiny. However, if you use it, the plant will not be able to tolerate direct sunlight for a while. It may burn if you do put it in direct sunlight after that oil is on the leaf.
Im in az, all my jungle plants are 7 feet from an air conditioner, low humidity and they're having no problems 🤷♂️
I was thinking this guy knows alot about this plant then I noticed the channel's name lol
The tip of the one leave is getting dark brown. What could be the reason? I water the monstera in every 2 weeks
Water when the top layer of soil is dry. Which 2 weeks seems about right depending on the volume of roots. Could be fertilizer burn 🔥 from excess fertilizer or maybe the soil needs to be leached. Also, try using RO, rain or distilled water.
Next can you talk about anthrium
Will try to work it in to what I have on schedule. Thanks for watching.
Take too much room.
And I though kids were a lot of trouble.
Who thinks growing kids is easy compared to growing this plant :p
Eewwwww
The plants dont talk back😂
Why you screaming bruh? It's annoying

Damn girl calm down
You get a thumbs down for not landing on the moon.
You typed all of this out but couldn’t type out two numbers into a converter 😅
@@lukescally8433 No, I did both. I guess you find doing more than one thing at a time challenging? 🤷♂️
