Your humor is something else. I watched this while falling asleep & half way through I was chuckling at your deep dive into grasshopper sekss - hilarious. Please don't ever change .. this was pure gold.
you prolly dont care at all but does anyone know a method to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
@Preston Jasper thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im in the hacking process atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I assumed it was to let light through to the lower leaves, as light is scarce and water is more abundant. But the water theory also makes a lot of sense.
I'm a biologist and I love how you approach the questions scientifically. Also, in some other videos, when you said something about a study of (I think) pothos spreading through a hurricane and that it would be an interesting study... I must admit, I could totally see someone studying that! People would read it and it would be so relevant! :D
Its just how some plants mature. Some just really like "ripped jeans" as they get older.... but be careful of giving young plants a pole. Once I gave a baby monstera a pole and she went full XXX stripper. She was way too young to be putting all of her holes on display like that!
I’m fully caught up, having watched every single one of your videos over the weekend... I can tell a huge amount of work went into all of them, editing is so good!
i like the “fenestrations to increase surface area” theory, both because it makes sense for gathering light, and for the structural integrity of the leaf. Like, to have an unfenestrated leaf of the size of a mature leaf, i feel like the plant would need to put a lot more work into reinforcing the leaf so that it doesn’t go completely floppy, right? Large monstera deliciosa leaves have much less mass than colocasia leaves of the same size.
It is really something that would have to be looked into in much more depth. There is not really a financial incentive to do this type of research, so we might not ever see anything like that.
Honestly I think that its to prevent the ripping of the leaves, aswell as sunlight and water. When you look at leaves in the wild like BOP, they always have rips and tears on the leaves. But with the fenestrations, the monstera leaf rarely has rips/tears unless it was damaged as the leaf was unfurling.
21:31 lol I was drinking water and spilled from laughing 😂 I appreciate you so much and all the editing, research and all the clever humor that goes into your videos. 🥰
Dear God you amuse me!! There are not many creators that talk about plants who can literally make me laugh out loud.... actually, I think you may be the only one. I always look forward to your posts. As for which theory I believe is correct... definitely the last one about light. It certainly sounds the most reasonable. Please don't mock my punctuation - I know it's horrible 😉 Thanks for another great video 👍
You are too awesome for RUclips! 😍 My granddaughter is SO into bugs and critters it's wonderful. Keep being weird! She helps with my jungle of monsteras. When she gets just a little older, she's going to LOVE you. She's currently 10. Keep putting out more awesome content! 😍
I love the direction your channel is going in the plant science way I like learning why things work the way they are. I collect lots of random facts as well , animal mating is so strange.
Thanks for yet another great video! I love that you actually take the time to research your topics and present them with humour. You´re a clever guy! /Hannah from Sweden
I HOPE NICK READS THIS, YOUR HUMOUR IS PEAK GEN Z AND I LOVE YOU TO THE MOON FOR THAT, THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR BRINGING HUMOUR TO THE PLANT COMMUNITY NICK
I wonder if aeration may also be a factor. It's like the opposite of the wind problem, lots of humidity being trapped by leaf cover. So the holes could be to allow denser foliage to breath.
I have just found your channel recently. I love your sense of humor. I am newly obsessed with plants, but not to the point that I will empty my bank account for the newest albino leaf. I like that you stick to plants that you know will thrive in your environment. Also I have to add I hate the new begonia obsession everyone is into now.
Water runoff and surface area (for light) make the most sense to me. Thanks for finding all the plant social media content I don't have the time/attention to dive into. Seriously. You give my life bright indirect light.
I love your videos! I love how you go off on tangents and go down rabbit holes. When clicking on this video I did not think that I would learn so much about grasshoppers lol.. Great content!
If you ever decide you want to be adopted by a le$bean couple in their 40s please let me know. My wife is an excellent cook and I'm a college professor. We live in Houston, and I know that's an immediate disadvantage in some ways, but the city is actually a monstrous urban sprawl hellscape. Totally great for plants tho!! We like to smoke jazz cabbage (gen X deep cut) and watch your videos. You're the best creator on YT - no contest. 💜
You're informative and hilarious 😂 Please never change. I do watch the Summer blog stuff too but yours has great spice and quality. Keep up the great work.
You are killing me with your humor, this is your funniest video yet!!! Where you come up with this is amazing. I appreciate all the work you put into making us bust a gut while always freaking educating, thx Karen I mean Nick lol
Light acts as a wave so when it hits a small opening (fenestration) its spreads out allowing the leaves bellow it to also get some light. Idk if that makes sense but that’s my theory
One factor I keep thinking about is the square-cube law; the larger something is, the more volume it has. A large leaf with no fenestrations would use up quite a bit of energy and resources to maintain, whereas a leaf of a similar size with fenestrations isn't using up as much resources and energy. If anything because there is a higher surface area with fenestrations it means the volume of the leaf goes down. And while a rainforest isn't exactly lacking in an abundance of water, it is lacking in an abundance of usable space, soil nutrients, and sunlight. And any edge an organism can have to edge out the competition, it will. Or maybe there is a Monstera fairy who cuts holes in our Monstera plants while we sleep. But ONLY the houseplants. Someone else does the wild plants in the forests.
Damn. That was too funny. I've started to watch your channel for the house plants content, however by now I'm enjoying writing and comedy even more :-)
Hahah I swear I love you! I just saw your Instagram post of a new video . You never disappoint!! Your great! Always make me laugh and smile and learn!!
You are so funny and such a trippy ride of randomness. I think the idea that holes say yummy and not poisonous is a good one. I learn something with your talks. Like raisins suck in tail mix. Okay, I'll let the ads go forth. I need to Google a couple things on Hoya so I can do that while they run😉📯🌲
I think monstera (and some other araceas) have fenestrations because of light and space: they grow in ver crowded forest in which those are the most valuable resources. The fenestrations allow the plant to have overlapping foliage, as one leaf don't shade completely the another bellow it. Also if the monstera goes in contact with parts of another plants, the leaves will not fully fold
The light and water theories make sense and are probably both factors that helped push this adaptation. Their growth pattern is an interesting insight, I would also imagine most light in a rain forest is dappled and constantly shifting due to the canopy shifting with the wind above. So having a larger surface area for less energy means the plant could be able to maximize the areas able to reach sun exposure with shifting areas of light and intensities. Another theory could be related to pulling humidity from the air. Obviously this is just a hypothesis but increasing leaf perimeter could increase transpiration? The reason I say this is in low humidity environments tropical plants have their edges browns and loose moisture first. So it would stand to reason that in ideal, high humidity environments greater perimeter would mean great water intake.
Most likely the fenestration in the Monstera leaves was a trait selected by more than one factor during this species evolution, like water, light and efficient transport of the nutrients to those large leaves without the downside of having a huge surface area that would perspire and loose much of the plant water in such hot temperatures. Also, I love your videos. Your wondering wandering mind is one of a kind. I did have to dissect a grasshopper in college for my entomology class and I must say it is quite ok.
Late to the party, but I’ve noticed here in blazing hot TX, plants such as Mulberry produce leaves of variable shapes depending on how much heat they are subject to. The cooler the weather (or the shadier the spot) the fewer lobes there are. Even on the same plant you can find elliptical, entire leaves from earlier in the season, and newer leaves with such narrow lobes they look almost palmate. I read somewhere this has to do with reducing the heat burden (from what I remember it had to do with leaf shape in red oaks in TX)
I actually think the light theory makes more sense, well at least to me. Also it would explain how monstera deliciosa it's such a good house plants we don't have a lot of light indoors 😅
Dunno if someone mentioned this yet, but the reason they mention the particular type of fan and setting in the Methods and Materials section is for repeatability. You want to provide enough detail in the M+M that someone else, in another lab, maybe even another continent, can reproduce the exact same experiment. A lot of fans don't list the cfm (cubic feet per minute, which probably would have to be converted to cubic meters), and then there are budgets, so if you have a fan that works, you aren't going to go drop 60-100$+ or what not on another fan. (It's not uncommon for the M+M to be done in a way that mantians scientific accuracy but also is the easist/simplest way for the researchers. Hence duct tape.) But yeah, it is an incredibly specific detail that is ultimately incredibly vague.
Since the fenestration on Monstera leaves shows mostly when mature, could that mean the baby leaves don't need the advantage of fenestration when near the level of forest floor? Hence fenestration is mostly an adaptation for the understory level of the rainforest? I have a fun theory, the fenestration is for monstera to grow the new leaf through the previous leaf's hole, just like what my adansonii has been doing, being a jerk on itself...
Whatever I wanted to comment , has already been said by many here. So ill just say amazing funny informative video. Still cant get over the variegated grasshopper for variegated fans.
Omg I can't believe that thing about the locust and how there are so many and killing this one is not endangering the species at all. Lmao, like wow, by that logic serial killer really aren't doing anything wrong 😂😂😂 did that person hear themselves as they were saying it. I mean I hate bugs but still it sounded so ridiculous... also I just heard a screech owl shrieking right outside the window and it scared the crap out of me. Just had to share that lol. Love your videos.
You absolutely made me laugh like mad... That grasshoppers bit....😂🦗 I remember that little Nick telling his mother everything about orchids in your birthday video.. OMG, how time fly... Now, what was that about Only Fans?...🙊
I agree with the sunlight and rain theories. It’s probably both. Millions of years of evolution probably lead species to make physiological changes based on several factors. But more importantly, I can not put into words how much I love your videos. If you had been one of my science teachers I would have actually learned and retained information. I LOVE the science and the research you do, and I LOVE your humor mixed in. My boyfriend (sperm sack) actually sits and watches when I have one of your videos on, and he completely ignores the 7 thousand other plant videos I watch every day. Props on no sponsors but if you ever decide to do a Patreon I would actually contribute, which is saying a lot because I’m a cheap ass. Please keep it up and don’t change a thing! Looking forward to next week’s live human dissection. 👍
Yeah at some point I might set one up. Not to buy philodendrons or tequila, but video editing software and cameras are expensive. Always glad to educate and make you laugh :)
You are so flipping hilarious! Who wants a variegated grasshopper...if you want it, go get it, it's in Ghana, enjoy the foo foo 🤣 I always know I am going to laugh while I get educated 🤓
You can email authors of studies and they are usually happy to share their work with you directly. They like that people want to read their work and they make zero from those distributors, like SpringerLink.
I will definitely do updates! I don’t know a lot of what you mentioned I just use peat based potting mix and perlite for my soil mainly. It’s affordable and good enough for me.
You're one of the most entertaining creators I have ever watched. Please never stop lol
Never
NEVER NEVER EVER EVER STOP!!!!
Agreed!!
Your humor is something else. I watched this while falling asleep & half way through I was chuckling at your deep dive into grasshopper sekss - hilarious. Please don't ever change .. this was pure gold.

Came to your channel bc of plants but stayed for personality, wit, and humour!!!!
Me too😊 and for the plants from someone who realy no plants😊
Thanks the most :)
I assumed it was to let light through to the lower leaves, as light is scarce and water is more abundant. But the water theory also makes a lot of sense.
Could be both. Who knows???
I thought the same👍
My theory is that you wrote the blog post about diy cutting fenestrations in monsters leaves. It really sounds like your humor.
I did not, unfortunately.
I'm a biologist and I love how you approach the questions scientifically. Also, in some other videos, when you said something about a study of (I think) pothos spreading through a hurricane and that it would be an interesting study...

I’m loving the sound effects cultural references and peer reviewed journals and just pure comedyyy yesss work
It was a lot of werk I have to admit :p
You are hands down the funniest/most informative plant RUclipsr by far! Please never stop being you (aka perfection) 🤗

Haha no problem. Glad you enjoy it.
I like the "increasing surface area" theory because that was also my guess.
I prefer that one the most.
my favorite was the whole more holes=more surface with less energy bit because I thought EXACTLY that even before watching the video so
I like that theory as well :)
New subscriber here. At first I didn't think I could take your humor but now, I can't get enough😆
I wonder if aeration may also be a factor. It's like the opposite of the wind problem, lots of humidity being trapped by leaf cover. So the holes could be to allow denser foliage to breath.
I love how you're super entertaining but ALSO you touch on some legit substantive shit. Evolution wOOt
Another great video! You have officially become my favorite plant channel. Educational and completely entertaining.
Can I get that in writing... oh wait.
Please keep posting more videos~!! I literally have your videos on repeat since I discovered you a few days ago

I think monstera (and some other araceas) have fenestrations because of light and space: they grow in ver crowded forest in which those are the most valuable resources. The fenestrations allow the plant to have overlapping foliage, as one leaf don't shade completely the another bellow it. Also if the monstera goes in contact with parts of another plants, the leaves will not fully fold
I agree.

Late to the party, but I’ve noticed here in blazing hot TX, plants such as Mulberry produce leaves of variable shapes depending on how much heat they are subject to. The cooler the weather (or the shadier the spot) the fewer lobes there are. Even on the same plant you can find elliptical, entire leaves from earlier in the season, and newer leaves with such narrow lobes they look almost palmate. I read somewhere this has to do with reducing the heat burden (from what I remember it had to do with leaf shape in red oaks in TX)
That and water loss. The less surface area of the leaf, the less water can escape through the stomata.
I actually think the light theory makes more sense, well at least to me. Also it would explain how monstera deliciosa it's such a good house plants we don't have a lot of light indoors 😅
I agree!
Dunno if someone mentioned this yet, but the reason they mention the particular type of fan and setting in the Methods and Materials section is for repeatability.

Primates are humans t.. oh wait no they aren't.
I'm from the UK. Pip pip cheery oh, God save the Queen, Cara De Lelevigne... Karen. Is why I will forever watch all of your ads.
Delevigne is one word THANK YOU VERY MUCH
I'm calling the manager or whatever its called in British
I'm mortified. I would edit but the damage is already done. I'm so sorry Cara 😔
Love your videos! Makes education fun :p
Please do an update on your melanochrysum.
Also a vid on pon, pumice, chitosan... please:)
I will definitely do updates! I don’t know a lot of what you mentioned I just use peat based potting mix and perlite for my soil mainly. It’s affordable and good enough for me.
