I have a smaller specimen, and I feel the same way that you do! It is always exciting when a plant can make you feel that way, even after caring for it for a few years!
i just got a little rooted, high varigation thai with 3 leaves for $35 from a local plant shop in NYC (to keep up with the comments on prices). i"m super excited to watch it grow and i really appreciate these videos. i feel like i actually know what to expect thanks to you 😊
Just bought a $30 baby from the local grocery store! 6 leaves and rooted, but no fenestrations just yet so🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻I’m so glad to see the price FINALLY dropping into a more consumer friendly range so if anything happens it’s easier to get a back up lol
@@elliottbrown6291 geeze I wish they were that cheap in Australia. Had to resort to a two leaf tissue culture still cost me $25 not including transport
Just to say you look radiant 😁. Like fresh and vibrant. I am definitely here for the plant chat…I have a Thai. Con. too, but I just really wanted to let you know 😊.
I saw Thai Constallation monsteras very juvenile in a plant shop for 79€ last month. I'm going to a plant fair this Saturday to celebrate my birthday (that was yesterday) and see with what I fall in love (I definitely have to fix a budget if I don't want to be ruined at the end of the day :D )
Ohhh interesting, they are holding their prices even in Euros too then. Yeah a budget would be adviser, I try to do the same when I can otherwise it can really get out of hand 😅😅😅💚🌿
I JUST bought 2 tissue culture plants of the Thai Constellation Monstera. (My first experience with tissue culture and two gives me better odds 😅) but I've seen allot go wrong with the albo; both online and people in my personal life. So I did a bit of research and decided on this one. Not only do I love its variegation pattern but also that it seems to have a more stable variegation. I'm still new to plants, and it's my first variegated monstera, so we'll see how that theory/idea (based on all the videos and reviews I've seen) holds up.
I got my Thai Constellation as a little baby with no splits in a 4 inch pot about 8-9 months ago. I've repotted a couple times and it stayed outside all summer. I've now got some large leaves with splits and holes. It's inside for winter now, but still pushing a new leaf.
I’ve also considered getting a 3d printer to make pots. 😂 I bought a small highly variegated seedling for about $80 5 months ago. It took a few months to start growing after being shipped and me changing the substrate but I’ve gotten 2 new leaves over the last 2 months (one per month). The newest leaf is more than double the size of the last. I’m blasting it with a sansi light about 12 hours a day though so that might make a difference. Such a gorgeous plant! 😍 Love these videos!
I just got a really baby Thai. I have seen people who let theirs crawl instead of putting it on a moss pole. I think I might go that direction. Hope mine looks as beautiful as yours does one day.
Your Thai is so beautiful 😍 I’ve stunted mine out of fear of it rotting. Kept in small pot an low watering. Got it back in 2019 an just now getting one little split. Lol Still love it 💚💚💚💚 The best price I’ve seen in the US is 60$.
Hey Sherry, thank you, that is super kind of you to say, yeah I think mine might be as slow as it is due to me being super careful to not cause rot, but I would be curious to see what others say too. Wahooo its great that it is getting its first split 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉💚🌿
I have a juvenile thai con in lechuza pon and it has been putting out about 1 leaf per month. It's up to 7 leaves now, and I have lost none. I keep it under a strong grow light, so that probably has something to do with how quickly it seems to be growing.
Forgot to mention I’ve got a baby Thai, would have thought she is a tissue culture was tiny when I got her. She is getting bigger but terrified to water it have heard so many horror stories about root rot 😮
Ohhh congrats on the new addition Kathy 🙌🙌🙌 yeah they can be tricky that was why mine went straight into semi hydro without a reservoir, so I can monitor the roots and avoid rot as much as possible 😬😬😬😅😅😅🌿🌿💚
Same here, I've got a juvenile form, in 5 months (spring/summer) she's made 2 leaves only... it's going to take a couple of years (if she survives) until I can see some fenestration :D
@@Houseplantygoodness out of curiosity, how many of your semihydro plants are in non-reservoir setups? What is the advantage of doing this over aroid mix? I thought the whole point of semihydro was to have plants that don't need to be watered as frequently because of the reservoir. I asked because I've destroyed a couple of plants via root rot in semihydro 😢
Mines quite juvenile she has one leaf with fenestration and 3 very immature leaves I’ve had her nearly 6 months and absolutely no sign of a new leaf yet!! Nothing at all 😭 it has to be the slowest plant in my collection
two youtubers that i’m aware of have experienced scale on their thais (Pete vs Plants and unplantparenthood). im suspecting thais might be prone to scale infestations.
Hey Daisy, ohh interesting, must reach out to Pete and see his experiences, so far never come accross scale on any of my plants, so can't comment, but that is great that you shared that, I think it will help a lot of people in the comment 😊🌿💚
Hello hope you are fine! I own a couple of Thai cons and noticed that the clear (cream yellow colored) part of the leaves get a bit brownish at the top end of their leaves, why does it happen? I see it on yours too, again only in the parts where no green is shown . Is it a way to stop it ?
Hmmm not sure I have ever tried to do it faster, but I think I saw some people trying with Keiki paste, not sure if it was to stimulate one or to make it grow faster though. Maybe someone else in the comments might know? 💚🌿
@@sherryporsch9349 thank you so much! It started with a node in moss and has been in a greenhouse since then - and now has lots of roots and I am watching that node impatiently)
I have used Keiki paste with much success! The node was completely covered in that dark bark and I applied the Keiki paste and it popped within a month.
Most of the places near me the Thais are selling in three digit range. I found this sale, there is a limit of 1 per household. I am happy for mine. The Costa Farm problem hit people hard.
Ok I just realized who you remind me of. Are you related to the Walsh twins? Like the ones that do make up and skincare? You look exactly like they’re not twin brother and you have the same exact accent.
I just scored a seedling for $70. I'm stoked! 😂 Thanks for the help Memo . 😂
I really appreciate these follow up reviews. Thank you

Hey Patty, yeah this is definately one, that if happy it needs space to grow into 😬😅, glad you can live vicariously 🙌🙌🙌💚🌿
I’m sure she will love it in your office , plus you get to look at the beauty that it is. 😉🌱💚

Also, 10 out of 10 for me!
Awww I thought you might appreciate Robin 💚💚💚
I don’t drive by choice ! I have carried sone giant ass plants back from the store on foot!
Hi, yes I needed this info as I'm awaiting the arrival of my 4in, but a big 4 in Thai. So excited🤗💚🌱$55.00 not a bad price 🤞I can make it happy!!! 🤗💚🌱
I paid about $350 for mine. Not quite as mature as yours but several leaves with fenestrations. The smalls are going for $65-$95 here now.
Wow thanks for sharing Vicky! It seems like they are still quite pricey in places 😬😅💚🌿
I just got a really baby Thai. I have seen people who let theirs crawl instead of putting it on a moss pole. I think I might go that direction. Hope mine looks as beautiful as yours does one day.

My very large, regular monstera gets about 4 leaves a year
they are about 80cm across though

Hi! I'd need help. My TCM is turning brown around the edges.... it's a soft browning, not crispy... what can i do to help it? Thanks

Mr. Memo, do you think it’s possible to stimulate an “eye” pop on the node? It is there and it slooowly starts to green up. Very slowly)
Hmmm not sure I have ever tried to do it faster, but I think I saw some people trying with Keiki paste, not sure if it was to stimulate one or to make it grow faster though. Maybe someone else in the comments might know? 💚🌿
Thank you! I’ll certainly look into that one!
I think the best you can do is high light an humidity. Hope it pops for you soon 💚

Oh no really? I would have thought they would have slowly come down in price 😢 💚🌿
I just got my first Thai, on sale for less than $50 us dollars. I'm super excited to get it. It's tiny, it has four leaves, terrific variegation.
@@EMuro-wu7uy definitely came down in price a lot since I commented 5 months ago!
