How To Stake Your Monstera Deliciosa

  • Опубликовано: 19 июл 2020
  • Here's a look into how to stake your Monstera, so she stands up tall and doesn't flop over into your girlfriend's mouth while she's sleeping.
    Out of all the houseplants we have, this Monstera Deliciosa is our most mobile. I'm constantly swiveling her around so she can catch just the right amount of sun, and staking her the right way is a huge part of how she's grown so huge!
    I use simple wooden dowel rods from my local hardware store, but there are lots of different ways you can do it -- from using a trellis, to bamboo, to moss poles.
    For more on the products we use in our videos, check out our Amazon storefront here: www.amazon.com/shop/thejungleupstairs
    And if you don't already follow us on Instagram, head over to @thejungleupstairs for more plant tips and tricks!

    I recently bought a bunch of plants and I'm so excited to reunite with my old passion of plant growing! I have a cat that pushed my lovely ceramic pots off of every window sill when he was younger.. He's 7 now and I want to have plants again. Bought a Monstera a few weeks ago.. growing like crazy! Thanks for your video!

    Haha this video might not have been the most informative, but more of a v-log with lively protagonists, which at the end of the day was more enjoyable than usual plant-related videos!
    But I still had a takeaway from it:
    1. Rotate once in a while
    2. Buy those wooden sticks

I just got one in the last couple days that’s already around 3 ft tall and I couldn’t find anything about how to stake one more than a foot tall without a moss pole or a trellis that it will likely out grow. Here’s to hoping my bamboo poles will suffice for now

I recently got a fully grown monstera and Im concerned that I might need to repot her in a bigger pot but not sure we’re to begin. Lol her leaves are everywhere but seeing this has calmed me a bit. I’m now reconsidering having to repot it and just getting sticks to help gather it together. Thanks so for this info ❤
