The walk away, left hand in the air, looking at your back while saying.... 'Again, this is going to be a whole situation' had me rolling laughing. I rewound it twice and still kept laughing. This is great!!!!
I always learn SO much from your propagation videos! Thanks for taking the time to make these AND for taking on all the stress of these projects to bring us along!❤❤
I’ve seen many people starting to use water only deep enough to cover the roots and not touching the cut stem/node at all, just hovering over the water with the roots covered, to avoid the stem rot where it was cut from having it fully submerged in water
You are brave for taking a chance with that beautiful plant!! Thanks for showing your progress through everything, definitely learned from your video, for my risk taking future lol.
You can apply fungicide to cuttings to stop rot! I've saved alot of cuttings and albos that way. The fungicide I use is Dithane M-45. I also find air layering is the best way of propagating albos. If not, moss is the next best thing. I experience alot of rot propagating them in water:( especially when the tip of the aerial roots are cut / not growing ( the white/ yellow tips)
Hi Kevin! I love your positive vibes (also when things go wrong). This is a lesson for you and those who watch your videos. Next time try to use charcoal or antifungal substance. Sometimes hydrogen peroxide is helpful too.
Hi Kevin, I love your videos - they're informative and so enjoyable! I feel I know you 😍 I've been wondering what the difference is between growing a plant in leca & growing one in orchid bark. Would the fertilisation need to be different? Thanks for sharing your plants with us all xx
Your albo is so pretty its good to see that the new leaf has so much variegation but even if that green with only less variegation still gorgeous !This monstera albo is my wishlist hopefully i can buy next year the cutting here in Australia is crazy expensive $45O for 1 leaf one node cutting with not so much variegation not even rooted and $750 for a half moon or more white variegation !!
The green cutting will grow variegation as it grows longer stem. I had many experience with low variegation coming back as you let the planet grow. You got this :)
Ahhh it was not a totall disaster! Super much learned here. And still a nice plant and cuttings. I laughed hard when you told us I did not kill it/its not dead 😆yet
I would love to know what this plant originally costed yo you and do you keep track of all the props you have made? It has to be 20 by now lol. I haven't gotten an albo again since every time I order one, it comes fully rotted. I swear I have horrible luck. BUTTTTT.....I love how well all of your plants do. I know you didn't feel like your props did well but seriously. Your plants are incredible and I am sure most people wouldn't get that many successful propagations. You are great kevin
Thanks for sharing the propagation tips..I am one of your constant followers .May I know where you purchase the 50Liter leca I've seen in one of your videos? Thanks.
Keven first off Beautiful Christmas tree. I see you like to make clones of plants. Have you thought about trying to flower a couple philodendrons , then taking the inflorescence to create a hybrid plant? My mind races with possibles like , pink Princess mixed with Thai constellation. Or Florida beauty mixed with pink princess. Painted lady mixed with Albo. All and all I can’t wait to see your next video.🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
IMHO: I think the issue with cutting the aerial roots is less so about the different types and moreso about how “new” the aerial root is. I’ve had the best luck with the new whiteish greenish aerials turning into helpful roots. The older and darker the aerial is I think the more likely it rots in water. I think maybe there’s an analogy to soil versus water roots in there somewhere, but my brain isn’t working well enough to articulate it. But anyways - I think they had a harder time because you cut off the whiteish newer part of the aerial and relied on an older part of the aerial more likely to rot.
Steph 💚 I definitely agree with this! There's definitely a lot of factors that I also can't articulate 🤣 but yes I basically cut the root that had the best chance of rooting 😬
How do you tell the difference between a small and large form albo? Is that an official variant or just indicating the difference between juvenile and mature?
oh my god please help me im having the same situation with a tip cutting i got about 5 months ago !! i’ve struggled so hard but it keeps rotting / not rooting 🥺
Monstera albo propagations are my personal nemesis, I killed 4 at point I have 2 at the moment both in perlite… they don’t do much… well if anyone knows a secret that I am missing out on pls let me know …
Beautiful, beautiful plants! But about green/variegated pattern - you need to rotate it more, the white cells grow when the light hits them directly (it's about light falling on the growing stem not on the leaves), try rotate it a bit every 2 weeks or so (like 20 degrees, not all the way 180, you may loose variegation altogether if the white cells suddenly stop getting light). At least that's how it works with my syngonium albo, my monstera is just a cutting for now so no way to verify my theory.
Can I purchase that baby, low variegated from you? I can send in my down payment or payment plan now and when she is ready to ship, it would be paid off by then. hahahaha
Thanks for taking the risks with this gorgeous plant so we can all learn from your experience.
Haha I love taking these risks 🤩🤩

LOL IT WAS A WHOLE SITUATION 🤣😅💚
@@kevin. 🤣🤣😂♥️
😅💚
A really useful tip I learned is to add cinnamon powder to the cut ends. It’s an antibacterial and help speed up the calluses!
my suggestion is to use an air pump for like an aquarium and only have the arial root in the water. i have literally never rotted a cutting that way 💛
Just here to say "Kind of a fail but not a total disaster" is gonna be my bio from now on😂
OMG I LOVE THAT. thanks for making me laugh 🤣🤣🤣
@@kevin. ❤️❤️❤️
I always learn SO much from your propagation videos! Thanks for taking the time to make these AND for taking on all the stress of these projects to bring us along!❤❤
Haha I learn so much myself!! 💚 Thank you for the support ☺️

Haha I learned so much so I'm very thankful for the experience 💚
I loved that you put all the videos together, great idea.
Oh thanks!! 💚🥰
there is no failure... only lessons ! Since i watched your videos, i'm dying to propagate all my plant!!!
I love your videos. You learn a lot through trial and error
Thanks true!! I definitely learned a ton from this experience ☺️
Thanks for sharing this experience! Your reflections are very informative.

Haha loving the black variegation! Great video, love the propagation ones.
This is a great learning video. Thx for including all the historical info of cuttings etc.
Oh yay I'm glad you liked it 😊
Hi Kevin! I love your positive vibes (also when things go wrong). This is a lesson for you and those who watch your videos. Next time try to use charcoal or antifungal substance. Sometimes hydrogen peroxide is helpful too.
Thanks for your bravely. Oh my gosh how I can say it. Its totally okay. You doing well and thanks once again.

Okay okay I need to CALM DOWN. I already chopped a couple on the mother plant. OOPS 😬 another experiment I guess
Learning for next time is a success too, and what is plant parenthood but a leaning process :D
Omg yes I love that! I totally agree 😃💚
I very love this channel
As I'm learning after each chop, the options are, use growth harmone, wax, or use cinnamon on the cut ends
All great options ☺️💚
Ahhh it was not a totall disaster! Super much learned here. And still a nice plant and cuttings.
I laughed hard when you told us I did not kill it/its not dead 😆yet
LOL ITS NOT DEAD YET 🤣🤣 I put her in a jar of water and rooting hormone, changing the water every 2 days so I can watch it 👀
NICE CHRISTMAS SWEATER
THANKS ASWANG
Bless you babe! ❤🤧
You just made me want to try growing albos again 🤣 #challenge
nawt the super rare black variegation!!! make an etsy rn

I love monstera i propagate mine and they are ok. I dont have albo though, yours are pretty.
Monsteras are the best!! 💚 I'm glad your propagations are okay ☺️
Where do you get such a gorgeous plant from

💚💚💚
absolutely tripping this thing is only 2 years old, WHAT
Can we possibly get the link to the large clear nursery pot? I can’t find them. Anywhere
How many days or hours should you let the ends callus?
❤❤
🥰🥰🥰
💚💚💚
Do you have your monsteras under grow light or into cabinets???
I do now! ☺️
oh my god please help me im having the same situation with a tip cutting i got about 5 months ago !! i’ve struggled so hard but it keeps rotting / not rooting 🥺
urgghh I always hear albos are easier to prop than thais and seeing the opposite success for you makes me nervous to get one of these haha
This plant is seriously a slowest growing plant.
😂 maybe it was just me
Is that Holland?
Amigo e meu sonho essa planta podia né dar de presente de Natal
What kind of grow lights do you use?
I use the Sunblaster LED growlights
I need those clear pots! Where do you get them! 😃💚😃💚😃
I got them from raven orchid supplies online ☺️
@@kevin. Thank you!!!! Just ordered a bunch!!! Just what I needed!
Kevin, I think it’s almost time for a new intro.
Haha you don't like it 🤣?
My big question is, what are you gpnna do w all these propagations?
Lol I have no idea 😳💚
I think doing airlayering would have been better.🥺
Are you selling the cuttings , if you are Hopefully not expensive, let me know please😜
Постоянно свою режу,размножаю,все время норовит помереть
Monstera albo propagations are my personal nemesis, I killed 4 at point I have 2 at the moment both in perlite… they don’t do much… well if anyone knows a secret that I am missing out on pls let me know …

Hello kevin i just shop my Albo and scream like a bitch lol my plants leaves are growing small leaves so i dicide to chop it
Can I purchase that baby, low variegated from you? I can send in my down payment or payment plan now and when she is ready to ship, it would be paid off by then. hahahaha
hello, you are so cute
