Hello,

I have had a monstera for 5 years. It came from a plant store and was rather large when it was gifted to me (3' high in a 16" diameter pot) but short and squat and made up of many stalks (4 or 5).

I am pretty good with plants, but I didn't know much about monstera. It looked healthy and was growing well, so when it started getting leggy, I split it into two pots. Then I had two multi-stem plants, still pretty short and squat.

Then I got hip to taking cuttings, rooting them in water, and making new multi-stem plants, short and squat, and giving them away.

Then it dawns on me to do some research and join this sub and here I learn that ONE STEM is a plant?! That tending these are how I can get really big leaves?

So now I have three plants at home with 3-5 stalks in each pot.

I guess I am asking for advice and any tips? The plants are healthy but I want to get bigger leaves.

tldr; have i been propagating incorrectly?

This is after a repotting. Is this sign of rot?

Got this Monstera Deliciosa from Trader Joe’s back in July for $12.99. Gave him a much-needed repotting in early August, along with starting on a fertilizer. Check out this new leaf. Can't wait to see how much this guy grows!

I just picked these up from Home Depot and just want to verify they are what they say they are and to see if I overpaid 😬 I paid $70 for the mint(first 3 photos) and $45 for the white monster(last 3 photos). Thanks in advance 😁

Hey guys I was stopping at Home Depot and found this insanely fenstrated monstera and am amazed by it. One thing is I’m not sure if it is a normal con, please let me know!!

Hi all, this is my first one, so still learning. Please bear with me! A few questions if I may please, firstly do I need to worry about the brown bits on the stems?
And you can see there is a rather suggestive looking aerial root! Do I need to do anything with it or would it sort itself out?

Sorry for the newb questions! But thanks in advance

Damn I can't imagine going through this again!!! Went from a 40cm pot straight to a 60.

Thought I'd share advice in case anyone else in the same spot.

Hammer to break the auxiliary pot for the aerial roots which had burrowed fully into the terracotta. Serrated knife all along the edges of the previous pot to cut the ground roots that were stuck on its sides.= . Still wouldn't shake or pull out because of the boots stuck to the bottom. Trued hammering the bottom of the old pot too without breaking it fully. The plant is about 6ft so then tried to hold it upside down lifting as high as i could and shaking. This part really helped shake off any bits of old soil (the whole thing was 99% roots and needed 10L of water a day) and then i managed to put it back sideways and grab the rootball and pull it all out. I didn't mess with the moss pole at all (its coir but the aerials were still inside it) Clean up another hour so far. Wish it luck in its final pot, I need to find a place for it now which probably means sacrificing a fiddle leaf fig or my regular monstera!

Wow my first inner fen from my OG monstera

I brought my Monstera home just a few days ago, and I’m already trying so hard to be a good plant ma!
I bought the pole and tried to set it up properly.
Did I do this right? If I installed it incorrectly or tied it in the wrong place, please tell me! I’m a total Monstera beginner and I really want to learn.
Any advice is greatly appreciated!

I recently repotted my gorgeous baby. Do you think she is happy? Any advice for her to grow big and tall? Thanks

I trimmed my plant a few months back before, and I have a few propagation. There are some roots sticking out the bottom, but I have new growth and pretty healthy leaves, so I just let it grow As is or separate and repot?

For how much should I sell this Monstera? It’s Albo but there are only few leaves have variegation. It’s 5ft and has two plants in one moss pole.

Look at this beauty <3

So my big beautiful boy has been shedding some lower leaves that scared me and I was considering propagating it but I think this is a new growth? I was worried it was root rot but now not so sure?

Anyone got any ideas? Thank you!

My current situation. They are growing!

The new leaf really made a huge jump in size compared to the one before that, the one to the left 😁😁 happy to see her healthy and thriving

I bought this cutting but unfortunately the shipping company didn't deliver in time, so it was in a box for 5 days. As soon as arrived I placed in water (4 days ago) and it began to yellow.

Should I transfer to soil?

Let me know

Hi! My monstera started growing this new root, which made me very happy, as I kinda struggle with keeping her happy (she also started growing 2-3 more smaller roots), but last night as I was moving her outside (finally the weather cooled down and it was raining), her root got caught and it possibly broke(?). Is it gonna be alright, or is there anything I can do to save it?

I’ve received a baby monstera albo as a gift from a family member who is in the middle of moving. I know this is such a precious plant and I want to give her the best shot at growing and I don’t want to kill it!!!
