I followed your tips on my monstera that I got one month ago and it actually worked! I noticed this morning that the new leaf has fenestrations, I'm so happy! :) Thank you for this video, it was super helpful
That's great! Thanks for coming back to leave a comment. I'm glad it's working for you.
I think my monstera really likes me... I haven't any space for him in my bright sunlight places, just in a medium sunlight spot. I also didn't give him a moss pole or a plank to grow on, just three chunky bamboo sticks...
And even after all of this he just gave me a beautiful, huge fenestrated leaf!!! He's growing really slow, I know that's for the previously mentioned reasons, but he still gifted me a lot of areal roots and a brand new leaf. I adore him ❤️
I got a monstera propagate that had just rooted from my friend, when I was a complete newbie plant owner, with zero experience. I have kept it this whole time in my Kansas south facing window. It has thrived! I really love it. Quite the interesting plant.
I’m so glad you made a point about sunlight. I’ve noticed the same thing about rubber trees, in that every guide says “indirect light” which leads to the plant starving.
Ah yes, the bright “indirect” myth. You’re absolutely right, bright light. It is beautiful. 🤩
Congratulations on your 1k!
@@KillThisPlant thank you 😊
That's exactly it! In order to get more fenestrations/mature leaves, most people know that a chunky soil mix + giving your plant support goes a long way, but some plants can handle the extra light and speed up that process significantly. My regular Monstera deliciosa doesn't even have support other than the edge of its pot and isn't even planted in aroid mix but its sheer maturity (soon to be 3 years old) + the amount of light I'm giving it is quickly turning it into a beast.
Hi ,my plant is very leggy,should I cut and propagate to grow a more compact plant?
I live in Singapore, the Garden City. You can see HUGE monsteras everywhere, by huge I mean the leaves are large than my 6 y/o! Those lucky plants live in tropical weather and partial sun
My god! Floor to ceiling south facing window? What a dream
I put my monstera close to the window behind curtains. The sun is directly on it but it has a veil of protection. It’s been getting new leaves and some of the leaves grow with no fenestrations but then they turn out of nowhere. So cool ☺️
My 2 monstera have green growing like crazy since I got them, but no fenestrations. They got a lot of light, but not direct. I've moved them to the windowsill where they will be getting a lot of direct sunlight. I have no options to keep moving them closer slowly so I guess I will put them in the windowsill for a little bit every day, then move them back to where they were. Extending the time in the direct sun bit by bit. Fingers crossed they will take that without protest. Thank you for this video, it was very helpful
Hi, Lee, Me again. I'm happy to get new info on growing this plant. I'm also glad your newer videos have no music. You don't really need
it, little distracting. After transplanting my Monstera which had 4 more growing with it, I put in a south face window last winter and it is just
now growing it's first new leaf in 6 months. Took a long time but now it's making it's move. There is no sun coming in that window now just
bright light. Hope that's going to be enough light.
I love the bit about lighting, very informative. Thanks!!
I will definitely try training my monstera for stronger sun exposure!!
Great! Let me know how it goes. Happy growing.
floor to ceiling south-facing windows?!!!? maaaaaan. i'm so jealous. all my babies have growlights, which do work well, but I hope they'll be able to taste the sun at some point in the future. loving your videos!
Love your videos. I have a monstera deliciosa outside and it gets full sun for about 5 hours a day. Yes you do need to do it slowly. Learn that the hard way One of my monsters grows outside all year round during the summer I put it out towards the full sun I do it slowly cuz during the winter it's close to the house underneath the patio it freezes where I live but it stays warm enough underneath the patio where it's still grows in winter during the summer I take it back out towards the full sun and I also do it very slowly It grows underneath the patio for about 5 months once the freez is over I start to take it out towards the Sun and it grows out there the rest of the year until it starts to get too cold at night and gets put back underneath the patio that plant is on a 4x4 Pole thanks for the great videos
Such a beautiful monstera! I have one that I got for 10 dollars as a baby with 4 tiny leaves, I hope she can look like this someday! I also noticed your mother of thousands in the background! Wow it looks really happy
You'll be getting those fenestrations soon!
Happy planting 🌱
Your monstera is beautiful! I just recently got a monstera, and the most recent leaf that has unfurled has pretty good fenestrations, but I definitely want to improve those for future leaves that come in!
I also just saw the Holes reference.... literally made me sub immediately.
@@SweetTea0023 haha you are the first and probably only person to get that. Amazing! Thanks for the sub! 🌱
I watched your video and gonna slowly introduce my plant to daylight and I'll see within month or so. Thanks for your videos on reporting and light...
Glad you enjoyed.
My monstera gives 3 leaves (one on each stem) a year... They're slowly getting bigger. I had one leaf with 2 fenestrations, but the next were just leaves without them again. It's in a south-east facing window, like, almost up against the window XD I just hope I am able to move soon, then I'll have some more space to put all of my plants. I got this monstera super cheap btw, in a box of 'throwaway plants' (plants that would be thrown out due to 'mistakes' or being in the shops too long)
Maybe you can consider supplemental grow lights.
I really enjoy your videos. They are very informative.
Thank you for taking the time to comment. I really appreciate it and I'm glad you enjoy the videos!
Really appreciate the tip about the pole!
considered subscribing and then actually subscribed because I saw your channel name [kill this plant] 😂 genius. enjoying your content, it's entertaining and to the point!
Thank you!
Thank you! My monstera is very sad. I’m going to figure out how to help her!
Thanks for the video! I am new to indoor plants and I can not wait to explore with my Monstera.
Check in and let us know how it goes! Best of luck.
I usually cut off the little leaves around the bottom. Those usually take away energy from the plant, making it grow smaller leaves. If the plant grows larger leaves, they will produce automatically good fenestrations, especially if the plants is getting bright (indirect) light.
Direct sunlight is tricky though, because the intensity of the sun is bigger and more damaging the closer to the Ecuator the plant is located at. It’s not the same to have a monstera in direct sunlight in Florida, than it is in Canada were the UV index is much lower. In Florida, that plant is highly likely to get sunburned, regardless of carefully introducing it to a sunny spot. But the sun would be more forgiving the farther the plant is from the tropics. The sun is just a tricky element to plants and doesn’t always function the same, and it’s very dependent on location.
You're right about the sun exposure. You absolutely need to take into account your environment. My direct light is very difficult than your direct light.
As for the leaves, any green leaf is photosynthesizing and providing energy for your plant. If you remove a leaf that is green you are removing the plants ability to make energy to grow. Smaller leaves provide a little bit of energy. It might not be a big deal to remove them, but it will not encourage new growth.
Hi! Can you do a video to explain Mycorrhizal and indoor plant roots, and your thoughts on them. There are many products to get. Are they helpful?
I will refer you to 'Gardening in Canada' on youtube.
Search her name with Mycorrhizal. She has 3-4 in depth super informative videos on the topic.
Nice
Hey, thank you so much!
Great tips. I just joined and loved all the videos. I am new to house plants and all your videos are so helpful . Thanks
Glad the videos are helping! If you're looking for anymore tips you can always leave a comment below.
How soon should you give your plant something to climb ?
I personally like to start as soon as possible. But it's not necessary until the plant starts to lean over.
Sooo helpful!!
Great video, thank you !
Thanks for leaving a comment. Happy growing.
Oh my god! I’m so happy I found your channel. I had a mini monsters that I accidentally murdered because I thought it had root rot. The tips were turning black and yellow. I wish I would have found your channel because it would still be alive. I’d like to think I’m more of a novice now. It was such a beautiful plant though. It still haunts me. Anyway, your channel has taught me so much, and I love that there’s no fluff. Subscribed, I know you deserve to be so much bigger because of how useful your content is and how straight to the point your info is. 🤍
Thank you for such kind words! Glad the content is helping.
Can you give for info with grow lights? I use mine on the purple light.. my monstera is also together. Like alot of them ? And I don't want to split her up .. if I were to add a moss pole I'm not sure where I could add it lol
As a complete house plant noob (all plants for that matter) I might have misunderstood what indirect light meant. But my young monstera deliciosa was in my office which got dappled morning light through a frosted (for privacy) window. It was healthy - well didn't have signs of stress - but didn't really grow much (One new unfenestrated ~15 cm leaf in two months in spring/summer). I moved it to a bathroom on the other side of the house that gets LOTS of direct afternoon and evening light through a frosted window and it has loved it. The boy's on a rampage.
Frosting = indirect?
Or he's a beast and loves direct light?
Either way, happy monstera!
Monstera can do really well indoors with direct light. Usually the more light the better (to a point)
@@KillThisPlant Yep, seems to be the case. Anyway, thanks again for the vid. Your advice has helped a lot!
I found that when I had mine in a bedroom with a large south facing window, it thrived! I got my first hole fenestration but it got so large that I had to move it out of the room or I would not be able to fit it through the door to water it(love it) now, it has to live in a small 3 1/2 by 5 foot north facing window and give it additional artificial light just to feel better. No more hole fenestrations:( Do you suggest anyhting I can do to get it back to its happy self?
Other than more light, something to climb and consistent good care, there is not much else to do.
Awesome, thanks for this! I like your style...the knowledge u are sharing, the fact that u experimented and are basically just sharing your experience & observations(which is the best part about any gardening, indoor and out- the lessons we leaen from trial and error!), your presence and delivery, the fact thar your vids are mostly- if not all- short, seeet, & to the point, yet you msnage to still pack them witj great info, lil tips, & lots of clear n bright footage of rad, thriving plants(bc it's not like id have the easiest time trusting you exactly, if, say, your plants were all hanging on by a thread!) .
ANWAY-GEEZblablaaablah
"Thanks for another great vid, man!!" - the main point of all my rambling(that' why im not the one on camerA ;) )
**one thing i wanna ask is this..
Can you elaborate more on when to start usijg s moss (pole or equivalent) and when to still skip it or stick with smaller stakes?
If you already have a video explaining this, sorry, but im not quite finding it.. Similat topics for sure but when you mentioned to not bother (esp to avoid aerial roots digging in) it threw me off.
I'm.about to re-pot a monstera that is still a bit young but definitely starting to mature. (***even with that said, it gets way less light than yours snd is much further behind in development even tho similar sge-- im v jeslous of the light you get at your home***).
I think its close needing a moss pole bc it def needs support as it is getting mature enough to have some heavier, larger leaves(and some fenestrations!!). Yet....at the same time, it still seems a bit like it'd be overkill...?
Hmmm decisions decisions...
I have some videos discussing that coming soon over the next few months.
Thanks for the tips
Hope you enjoyed!
Great video !
I love your videos! You're so wonderful.
Hi Lee, thanks for teaching me how to keep most of my plants alive, and how to process the death of some. I have a question for you please: I'm Colombian. Monsteras are commonplace in my country but they are usually grown outdoors. I moved to Philadelphia last year and 7 months ago I got a monstera from seed and nursed him through winter. My question is: On min 3:26 you say: " If you have a seedling, pls don't bother w a mosspole. Any stick is fine..." (I agree) "...Eventually, you'll want to propagate and cut and propagate the top part of your plant anyway..." Can you please tell me why? I'd love it if you'd elaborate. I'm trying to figure out next steps as growing a monstera indoors is such a foreign concept for me. Thanks for your very informative channel. You're great.
Ceilings and stem thickness.
Let's assume you have amazing light and fast growth. Your plant will go from having a very thin stem to having stems so thick that they will snap. Imagine a bowling ball balancing on a tooth pick. Eventually you'll take your thickest part of the plant with a few of your best leaves and start that in a new pot.
Now your plant is a mature plant in a new pot. Eventually your plant is going to hit your ceiling. You're going to have to cut your plant and again take the best new leaves for it to continue.

@@KillThisPlant Lee, love your response. Thank you!! I thought the stem would just get thick on its own as it grows, it does outdoors in my country. Then again, it's usually planted against a tree, so I assume the root system is huge compaired to that in a pot. I'm looking forward to having that problem when my baby grows up
Thanks again. You're great!
Thanks for the great tips❣️🙏👍
Thanks for taking the time to comment! Hope the tips help. 🌱
Yea its helpful my friend love ur monstera so big
Thank you. 😁
Help Lee!
I have a Monstera and it’s growing with a back facing the window and a back facing the opposite direction. I did repot it three weeks ago, Would I be able to re-pot it so it grows in the same direction?
Hey! Love your videos, some amazing tips! You mentioned cutting the top off your monstera and propagating this. Could you do a video or explain a little on this? I rescued a monstera and it had very long stems and small leaves for ages. I helped it climb a moss pole and gave it enough light etc and it finally has beautiful big leaves with fenestrations. Eventually, I'd like to cut the top away from the bottom stemmy leaves, but will the new leaves be smaller after this?
ruclips.net/video/tYQfZtD1Csc/видео.html
I don’t have any good sunlight I got a matured one half with splits half not. Same size leaf’s it’s healthy just not as Holey lol. Can I use my plant white light. One of those light bulbs they sell at Costco that look like a flower lol
🇨🇦
Love these plants! I received one for Christmas here in MN. Unfortunately, ALL the leaves were frost nipped (totally brown and dead!) when I got it. I let it sit in my chosen sunny window for 3 weeks and then cut the dead stuff off. Sadly only 1 leave survived the sub-zero temps. The stems are still green up to 4-10 inches above the soil. What are the odds of it coming back?
As long as it's not overwatered, Monsteras can come back from a lot.
Now I HAVE to name my new monstera Stanley Yelnats ;)
Hi there will a grow light give me the same results as I don't have a space in front of the window. thanks
Light exposure is measurable. So you can get your light from any source as long as it's high quality and has an adequate amount of time exposed.
My Monstera loves my NE window
Share your best Monstera tips. It is required by law.
Thought mine died as my kids and cats knocked it off the balcony 3 times. She was so busted and battered that I abandoned her under a small tree w lots of light. Came back three months later. I had 4 perfect new leaves. Cut her to pieces and I’m almost done with water prop. One new leaf, roots like crazy, and 4 new leaves growing. I’m psyched!
I love the banister type pots that sit on your balcony. That’s what she was in at first when she was murdered. She got tons of light through the trees.
We blast ours under a grow light and it is LOVING IT
I purchased a medium sized monstera from a nursery and it only has 2 leaves that are fenestrated. It has a BUNCH of smaller new growth coming out of the base that are non-fenestrated. Will they become fenestrated over time or should I remove the "suckers" growing from the bottom?
They will not become more fenestrated over time. There are no such things as suckers. Leaves have one job, to produce energy for the plant. If you cut them off your plant will grow slower. If you want to cut them off for aesthetics, you can do that.
Hi..can you pls say if i should chop off the non fenestrated leaves of my monstera ?
Leaves have a job to produce energy for your plant. If you remove the plants ability to produce energy your plant will grow slower.
You should get dreads you would look really nice with them
It’s almost creepy how RUclips directed me to your video- this was after another video you made titled something like- Stop doing this to your monstera...
I bought two baby monsteras during the shutdown pandemic era so prob march-April 2020. They were small plants with a couple leaves each. No fenstrations obviously. Since then they have grown SOOO much. One more fenstrated than the other, and the only one did i take nod cuttings from and then give away. However they both seem quite leggy to me... and i didnt really know what i was supposeded to do to get that epic fuller plant. Ive been thinking of cutting off the more mature leaf plants from the nodes- rooting in water then bunching together in a new pot or in its mother plant pot. But i jsut wasn’t sure what exactly I SHOULD be doing. I didnt even google this yet... and alas- your videos presented itself. The info you gave in each of these videos at some point or another nailed exact questions i had in mind, as well as garnished with other great info. I guess i really just wanted to say, a thank you for the serendipitous meetcute. Isn’t it weird though how this happens with you tube recommendations and IG ADS.. Like as if they’re in your brain. The only plant stuff I RUclips for the last year has been outdoor gardening... so how they advertised your monstera videos is BEYOND ME Because i only thought it in my brain! Ok anyway. Kampai!
I'm glad the videos have been helpful. Thanks for watching.
just picked up a giant one for 25 bucks at home depot, lots of leaf damage but plenty of good leaves too.
now that the seasons are changing i'm getting a lot less light in my E/SE facing windows, so i'm trying to figure out a solution for that.
Thank you for your videos! Monstera newbie here, and these been helpful. I have a follow-up question, at the beginning of these video "to go from this (and show mini-Monstera with no fenesrtation) to this" (showing Monstera Deliciosa with beautiful fenestrated leaves). Do those mini-Monsteras grow to be this big? Are this the same species? Or it was to just show the difference between the lack of fenestration and the presence of it? Sorry if I use wrong terminology or not accurate plant names. Just getting started :)
This video was a while ago but I believe those were both Monstera Deliciosa Large form.
There is small form and large form. Generally large form will grow to a larger size faster.
Did you make this video just for me? 🥰
Give me 10 more video ideas by noon today.
What happens if the aerial roots burrow into the moss pole? Why is that bad? I’m going to attempt my first moss pole on mine so I’m curious. Thank you.
I don't know if I explained that part well. It isn't necessarily bad if the aerial roots burrow into your moss pole. I think I should have said aerial roots can be difficult to remove from a moss pole, which can make propagating a small plant frustrating.
Can a new leaf without fenestrations grow them later? my newest leaf didn’t get any 😭
No unfortunately not. Once the new bright green leaf darkens to the same colour as the rest of the plant it will not grow any larger or grow any fenestrations.
Keep being patient! You'll get there eventually. 🌿
What do I do if my plant stems are growing in an “S” formation. I can’t seem to get them on a moss stick. I waited too long to see your videos. I think at this point they need to be topped. How do I do that? 0:28
How do you get direct sunlight with a south facing window? It has to be bouncing off stuff which makes it indirect.
I get direct sunlight from sunrise until around 11am. I guess it could depend on where you live.
@@KillThisPlant Changes in latitudes,. maybe!
Heya I was wanting to know whether small bamboo sticks would be ok for a larger monstera to climb?
Eventually you'd need something more sturdy. It really depends on how thick the Monstera stem is.
My monstera put out two leaves recently and I notice they aren’t as tall as the previous leaves, the leafs are getting bigger but not taller, anyone know what could be causing this? Or if I shouldn’t worry about this?
With less light petioles get longer. Sounds like yours is getting an adequate amount of light.
Keep up the good work eventually your plant will catch up in height. As long as the leaves are getting bigger you're good!
Plant ties?
Does it work on plants that is almost 2?
I followed you in this and ended up with sun burn spots😅 it’s hot here even during autumn it’s getting around 12 hours of sunlight daily on south facing window. Do you recommend covering the window with ligh white curtain to filter the sun or just move it back a bit more
4-6 inches closer every 2 weeks and you still got sun burn?
1. Light
2. Stake to help it climb
3. Soil (no info provided but a reference to another video lol)
Looks like someone watched the whole video! 😅 Thanks for dropping a comment. Appreciate ya
Lol thank you. My ADHD can only take about 34 seconds between points before my brain just logs off.
The place where I bought my monstera advised me not to move her around as they apparently do not like that at all. So that is not true then?
I would say that all plants would rather have a consistent spot with appropriate lighting for their genus.
I would also say Monstera Deliciosa are extremely hardy and don't care about being moved around, as long as it's not into extreme conditions.
What about grow lights? I have one inside with a grow light. But not sure how strong i should be using.
I have the same philosophy on grow lights as all light. Gradually increase the light exposure and watch for signs of sun stress.
Will Sun lamp work as well as close by the window?
That would depend on a lot of factors but particularly how close your growlight is to the plant/sun intensity from the window.
Thank you. I knew it wasn't enough light. I hate it when they say "only indirect light" its so unclear what that actually means.
Thanks for leaving a comment!
I'm starting to think indirect light means "don't leave it outside in the sun". Indoors is a whole different story.
Hello lee✌.Trueth those. Bugs you release did wrk.100.? Did u whip down the leaves after or removed them?Share site whare to buy this.Thanks.
Yes they did work really well. No need to wipe down or clean up after.
The problem is you need to buy enough to make sure can apply to all the leaves of your plants. If they die off before they eat all your spider mites they could come back.
You'll have to search to buy some depending on where you live. Each country, state / province, may have their own rules about shipping insects.
What kalanchoe is in the background?
New vocabulary words. Last month propagation, this month fenestrations
My monstera is growing bigger leaves, but shorter and shorter stems. Is it getting too much sun?
The more sun it gets the larger the leaves and the shorter the petioles. If you're happy with the leaf size, great. If you want longer petioles you'll likely have to give it less sun.
This may result in anywhere from, not as big leaf size increases to having your next leafs be smaller.
Experiment with it!
@@KillThisPlant Thanks for the tips!
In the peak of summer it gets around 45 40 degrees Celsius here. Will it still be okay in direct sunlight?
I don't know but I would monitor closely and move it away from the sun if you notice leaf burn.
@@KillThisPlant thankyouuuu I shall do that!
I hv bought q young monstera 2 months back and I hv not seen any growth in it.. except that the young leave is yellowing and might drop off..I don't water it much..and now I hv moved outdoors in a shaded area..pls suggest
2 months is not that long to see new growth. If lower leaves are turning yellow rapidly I would examine the soil and your watering frequency.
@@KillThisPlant how long does it take to see a new growth?? infact I don't see any change in its existing leaves..they are of the same size..no change at all..
@@nehalpatil7551 once the leaves grow after a few weeks they never increase their size. Only new leaves will be larger if it has good light.
New growth could take up to 6 months it really depends on how you are caring for it. Some things that could slow down growth are, improper watering, pests, insufficient light, lack of fertilization, the pot being root bound.
@@KillThisPlant okay..mine is having 4 leaves right now out of which one is not having any cuts on it..I usually water it when the soil is dry which is once a week since the weather is bit cold right now and placed it near the window..to get proper light..I have added a teaspoon of organic fertilizer to it..are these thing enough?
@@nehalpatil7551 yes. Make sure you don't over fertilize the plant, follow the instructions and use about 1/2 or 1/4 of the directions.
Hello there! I recently got a huge Monstera cutting with thick aerial roots, some about 2.5 ft long. Can I just directly pot the whole cutting in soil? Please help lol
Love from Nepal 🇳🇵
what a great cutting!
I don't have good luck with putting cuttings directly into soil; though it is possible. I usually recommend putting your cutting into water, waiting until water roots grow. And then placing it into soil. I am working on a vid for how to propagate a monstera and it should be ready by Aug 21st.
If you do put your cutting into water, long aerial roots are great. But if you need to trim them back a little so it can fit in a container that's ok too. Just make sure your tools are clean.
@@KillThisPlant won't the aerial root rot if we keep it in water?
@@yazunakarmi3315 there is a possibility. There is also a possibility it may rot in soil as well if you don't have the right balance of water retention.
Perlite or sphagnum moss propagation are options too. I generally recommend using whatever method you're most comfortable with. If this is your first ever propagation (of any plant) I would just go with water.
@@KillThisPlant Thankyou for your insight! Much appreciated, Take care!
I have mine under a grow light and it still isn't giving me the famous leaves 🥺
Are the leaves in general getting larger? Is the plant staked?
@@KillThisPlant They were but the last leaf that was put out is a little smaller, and yes I do have it staked
@@pariscapri1594 what grow light? How close? How long is it on for? Is it the only source of light?
@@KillThisPlant I don't remember the brand. It was something I got from Amazon. Yes it is the only light source. The light is set on a 6 hour timer, and it hovers right over the plant.
@@pariscapri1594 ok. If it's the gooseneck ones with multiple heads those aren't great. Also if it's the only source it should be on for 14 hours.

I am not the right person to ask. But check if your home country has any national board for window installations / safety certifications. If they do they may offer training programs. Otherwise you just have to apply for a company get hired and learn on the job.

It took me too long to realize you were talking about your 2 year old plant and not a 2 year old child.😖
