  • This is part 1 of my mini series on plant care for a specific type of plant. Monsteras are known for their huge size and their affordability. They are a great beginner plant, as they grow fast and get large quickly with little care. Comment below for any question or suggestions that you believe would benefit everyone here including myself. Happy Growing!

    Great video!

    Killed two Deliciosas, so pass me on the Giant.
    Twice a month watering is fine for east or north facing windows. South facing requires more, in my area.

      Thanks for sharing that knowledge with us. I’m terrible with directions. I dont know why I just don’t pull the compass out. Hope your Sunday is going well.

      Don't every give up on plants you love. Keep at it because in the end they will reward you. I wasted so much money on Cebu Blues, but I could not give up on them. I lost one Thai, two deliciosas, one of the other monsteras they sell in the stores that they don't tell people are not deliciosas (forgot the name), one mini monstera (ginny), but I kept at it and now the plants are doing better. There is a learning curve. You are going to lose a lot of plants until you figure out even the pots you should use (clear for smaller plants, terracotta for cuttings). When it comes to monsteras, remember a good fluffy aroid mix and a good pot that drains well as they do not like to be wet. They give you signs if someting is wrong, like a yellowing leaf. Thai Constellation was the hardest plant I ever had to deal with but now I have a nice one as I didn't make the mistake I did with the first one. Keep at it! It's kind of fun to waste money sometimes (NOT!).

      @@growingwithshawn Uhm coming from the person that look like he is running a beauty pageant for plants! You are welcome. The biggest lesson is, you are going to lose plants, but if you really love them you should keep trying. There are plants I won't purchase again because I may not like them as much as others. I will never purchase a Snow Queen Pothos again because I have lost a couple, the brown and I don't need to have one.
