It's called Monstera Deliciosa for two very good reasons:
1) If you can grow it to produce fruit, the flesh of the fruit is delicious. I have eaten the fruit, grown on a neighbour's plant when I lived in Australia..
2) But the fruit has a monstrous side to it: Underneath the skin there is a thin dark brown or black layer, protecting the fruit itself. You need to remove all of that layer carefully, with a knife or similar tool, because if you chew it, the layer breaks into razor sharp pieces which will lacerate your mouth, throat, oesophagus and maybe your stomach. Remove the protective layer and the fruit inside is completely harmless.

Great vid! Perfect for listening while taking a stupid walk for my stupid mental health.
Great job getting out for a walk! Awesome achievement when your mental health is struggling. Good luck to you plant parent.
Keep doing what you're doing 👍
You’re doing great, self respect grows with your plants 🌱
Yes, stupid mental health can be quite... yikes.. i have stupid mental health as well.. and a plant addiction..
I bought a baby monstera (12inches tall with all it's baby leaves) and accidentally left a fan pointed at it for a week. To my surprise the next leaf that came out had three fenestrations on it! I moved the fan and the next 5 leaves had no fenestrations 😂 I think I hacked/stressed it out making it think it was in a week long hurricane! I'd love to see you do an experiment with wind!
Need to test that!
It’s likely that it had super bright light where they grow it so the near leave which came was supposed to see this bright light. Instead it saw only your light in your home which probably isn’t that much. So the next leaves turned out without fenestrations.
I’ve read in a study once that tropical plants fenestrate for this reason, to stop tropical storms from tearing up the leaves. The light theory is the first time I’ve heard of it.
@@dafnesaenz1617 Well that’s actually very interesting since the reason for fenestration is not clear yet. It could be right but for me the light makes more sense! Maybe it’s both!
Interesting! My 1st (baby, 6" tall) M.Del, I've had for 2 years & still no holes or lobes! Still looks like a big heartleaf philo!!There were 5 in the pot, so I think they were seedlings, but IDK if that would make such a huge difference? I dropped her & 2 plantlets broke off, but rooted beautifully! When I went to plant them one had died & the remaining one seems to be doing fine after being potted. It & the original STILL have no holes or lobes!! A more mature one I bought recently came w/ big, beautiful, fenestrations. I may try the fan thing on the 1st 2 to see if it helps them to catch up!! Yeah! I'm impatient!! But w/ Sheffield's videos & Y'all's comments, I'm learning!
I keep monstera in my aquaponics system and it's huge and taking over everything
If you chose the Rolex, you could sell it and buy lots and lots of monsteras.
😂
Haha, someone who thought what I did! If you get the right Rolex, you could end up with a Rolex and some plants.
Money can be exchanged for goods and services
I LOVE YOUR COMMENT
😂 good one
OMG, I saw an hour video for Monstera and thought WTF, ain’t nobody got so much to say that can keep my attention for so long on one fricken plant. Well, it passed by so quick and so much good info I’m going to have to have another listen and take notes! 😅. Excellent, definitely subscribing to your channel and thank you for sharing.
One last thing…. At the end when you were repotting the last plant your wife wasn’t home, was she? I could tell because you put nothing down on the table… you must put a sheet down of some sort, I use a plastic table cloth I keep just for doing messy jobs like that, I suggest you do the same so as not to incur the wrath of the Mrs. 💜
Glad you liked it! She was most definitely out. Don’t show her the video
27:45 this part is stuck in my mind!! Every time there is bright sun outside I look at my monstera and thinking to move her outside for a while, I hear your voice saying "leave it!!!!" 🤣🤣🤣
😂
This is SUCH a helpful video! Matter fact, it’s given me more answers than I’ve gotten watching a ton of other plant channels combined. Also, I love the way you edited, it’s the perfect blend of humor and information. Definitely HAD to sub!! Thank you!! 🌱
Glad it was helpful! Thanks!
I love your content! I’m graduating with my BS in Horticulture in May, and your advice is spot on 🎯
Awesome! Thank you! Good to know I don’t talk complete nonsense 😂
We keep our monsteras inside during the cold months (Chicago-based). One year I took a large one and placed it out in our atrium which does not get many hours of direct sunlight but amazingly, this one plant showed burned leaves after maybe three days. Also, our 7 foot schefllera amate exhibited even worse sunlight burn. Both survived. No lasting damage except for the area on my rear where I was kicking myself.
The sudden change did it I guess
I agree with Mr. Shuffled. The amount of light you're describing seems optimal for these plants, but you do need to acclimatize them slowly to changes in light. Move them slowly (over a few weeks) toward more light.
I really appreciate your videos. Thank you for being willing to disclose your plants that are ailing and thank you for showing your thought process in figuring out what the plant problem may likely be. ❤
My pleasure 😊
This is really interesting , how a plant actually adapts & looks after the leaves below it. Absolutely amazing nature. I love learning about everything about this earth & the beautiful things in it.
I've bought 2 of those Sansi plant lights and like them very much. I have one on my first monstera, which i bought because of your hilarious informative videos.
Great to hear!
Thank you for the valuable tips. I'm starting again with Monstera after I tossed my previous plant onto compost pile when it became a tangled mess of vines. Oddly enough, new Monstera is old Monstera. Or rather, a tiny chunk of its vine that became lost in my "discard soil" bucket, then grew a vine out of my balcony Echeveria pot, where that discard soil went. Its first leaf got scorched by the sun, but it made a speedy recovery after repotting and is on its 4th leaf, each larger than the former. It also grows a lot more densely now that I know it needs more sun.
The resurrection plant!
Your plant wanted to live and it has survived the carnage. 💚🪴
Fabulous. I really learn a lot in this one. The baby monstera I got was in a 6 inch pot with knats, I bathed it, gently washed roots and repotted in a 4 inch pot to work on getting root bound and I put my stake in. I looks a lot better. Thanks for everything. Peace and Love.
Excellent advice.. winter is upon us! What a tonic you are ❤
Thank you 😊
I've always used the miracle grow potting soil and never had a problem with it. Same with the fertilizer.❤😊
👍👍👍
With regards to watering Monsteras, mine exhibited guttation when I gave it more water than it needed! That was my cue to not water it like other house plants.
I actually love air roots I think they’re funky beautiful but that is some very good advice
Thank you 😊
Super beneficial video. I loved how long this was as well. Thank you for creating this!!! I love Monsteras
Thanks for watching 😁
This was one of the most informative videos I've ever seen, thank you so much ❤❤❤
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for your channel! I look forward to all your videos. They are so informative!❤😊
Thank you 😊
Great video! I realize that I am very late. I also realize that you are against misting your plants. However as somebody who is over the magical age where I can see webbing and I don't always have a flashlight or my phone when I'm inspecting my plants, I have found a very fine mist from a water bottle immediately identifies webbing on any plant.
That makes sense 👍
I took so many notes! I have to say my Monstera are very happy.
I do have that yellow mold stuff like you. I had not added nematodes. I still don’t really know.
Thank you for all your information.
I like your wall picture of the convertible car, lady driving and the dog. 😊
Thank you 😊. That's a Pete McKee if you're keen
Love your videos. Your knowledge and humor has brought me lots of joy, laughter and helpful tips. Love the parts where you yelled "I said leave it!" :)
Hehe thanks!
Your videos are always great! Thank you! My Monstera is getting wild and now I have a solution! I have 3 plants from one big Mama. They are still young but they are growing. 🪴🪴🪴
Found your channel today and I’m just learning so much!! Thank you
My pleasure 😊
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢😢
The editting when it came to the pruning section!!! Love it 😂✨😍
Thanks!
My old gal is coming up on 20 years since I started the cutting from the lobby of my apartment building. I started out trimming the aerial roots. Now I have a 10 foot braid running down the corner of the hallway, and under my couch. The main vine is held up with cloths tacked to the endge of the ceiling and main wall of my living room. The leaves around the slit window on the south wall are far larger than any others. Great tips fella!
They can also grow with their roots in an aquarium. Started cuttings, and just let them keep growing.
Sounds like a beaut!
I wish I could see your plant! It sounds like it’s glorious!
I really enjoy your videos. Very informative, hilarious at times and entertaining. Thanks a bunch.
Glad you enjoy it!
Love your videos specially you're funny attitude makes me come again again and again to watch your videos ofcourse lucky Mrs Sheffer
She wouldn't say so 😅. Thank you!
Thank you for making me consider the fact that I'd moved my poor monstera from a sunny southern exposure to a gloomy northern one. It hasn't been as happy the past year. I'll be moving her back at once.
Thank you for Sharing beautiful House Plants lovely collections beautiful video
Billie here. Thank you for all your information. I have only 50 plants. You have giving us more than tips than I thought we know. I need a holster for my water meter.. Thank you again. Your the best. Stay aaell
Holster! Brilliant idea!
Billie 😂😂😂
great video!
have you ever tried air layering? if you're planning a cut in the future, instead of directing the new aerial root(s) into the soil, you direct it into a cup of water instead and can watch the roots grow. once established, cut and repot with no worries about root rot!
One for the future 👍
Hi from eastern Canada. Your videos are very well done including lots of valuable information
Glad you like them!
You hit on 2 issues that I had to deal with today. I bought 4" potted plants from a grocery store plant shop. I normally give them a bit before repotting, but they felt so wet and heavy that I was worry about root rot, so I transplanted them when I got home. I'm glad that I did, because as I was doing so, that wet, soggy soil was up 1-2 inches up the stems. They just dumped wet dirt all around the stems to top it off. If I had waited a week, they would have started to rot and died. From now on, I'll start checking the stems to see if there's excessive dirt around the base when I get them.
Gosh what a nightmare
I tragically murdered my adansonii by forgetting about it whilst bottom watering. Poor thing sat in water for about 18 hours. Ended up dying a slow death from root rot. So sad - I didn’t even save cuttings as it was winter and I realized way too late what was happening. RIP 🪦
'something that will metastasize and get me' 🤣 I will forever thank you for your nematode video! I got some my self and I'm 12 days after application and, knock on wood, i think a decrease!
Awesome video, some great tips and info on the beloved monstera. I had just cut mine down to the nub, so good to know it will resprout from the nubs.
Love it thanks!
Loved this! So many helpful tips! :) I put mine up using a moss pole. Initially, it was stable, but now I needed to stack another pole into the existing one so it's a little less stable but still great and the monstera climbs up it nicely! :D
Glad it was helpful!
Love your videos everytime i watch i learn something new every time even when i watch a video over and over
Awesome! Thank you!
I’m sure we all appreciate the info. Thank you so much. 😊
You are so welcome!
Thanks for the tips. I have had a monstera plant that has been in my care for years. I hardly did anything to it. Finally this year, I chopped it in two pieces and repotted both pieces in the same pot using an old orchid mix (I am an over waterer.) I gave it some mycorrhizae (diluted in water) to help with transplant shock and the roots. It has been happy so far. Two new growths on the old stem, and the other is growing a new leaf. I can only hope and dream that it would thrive and someday look like the monstera plant that you keep in your bedroom. 😅
Sound like they’re well on their way 👌
I’ve got 4 monstera plants. I wasn’t allowed any plants when I was younger, so obviously I got one when I turned 39. My local properjob in Highbridge sells them proper cheap! Dunno where I’m gunna put them though… their a bit massive/large!
Send a couple my way 😁
@@SheffieldMadePlants pop down to Somerset! Loads of properjobs about . It’s like a local BnM x
Love your videos and your comics 😅I enjoy them so much.Hi from Maine 😊
Thank you 😊
My adonsonii is a beast, he lives in a giant west window (it does have a 40% shade cloth hanging in front of it) and he is just absolutely going to town! I have gotten SO MANY babies off him to give to friends, too. He is climbing Thiccly moss poles and living in pon and living his very best life.
Sounds awesome 👏
My adonsonii was beautiful, it was in my east facing window that I tinted. 2 months ago my 22 year old son bought a puppy and he took a chunk out of it, he was rushed to the vet and my beautiful plant hasn’t recovered 😭 It’s still alive but it’s not thriving. 2 days ago I unwrapped 5 feet of stem with only 3 leaves on it😭😭 Now I have about 50 wet sticks
@@ShilohLynn1313 😭😭😭😭that's sad! Is the puppy okay?
Thank you so much Richard, the only Monstera I have are the Monkey faced ones. But, I really really enjoyed this video. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤
Much appreciated
The adansonii bit was *exactly* what I needed, though I somehow didn't expect it would be in this one. Your videos are rad, btw!
Legend!
Love the Adansonii in your bedroom!!! Georgeous.
She's a good'n
As much as i love plants im taking the Rolex
You forgot the ‘put holes in the windy large leaves so the wind doesn’t rip it to pieces. Like putting slits in fence cloth, one needs to have holes in large surface area.
Grow lights are so important!
first time ko pong napanood ang vlog.. wow! cute naman and napaka sweet naman ni madam
I have a monstera that gets a little bit droopy when it’s thirsty. I use this as my indicator that it’s time to water soon.
I keep my monstera adansonii in my fish tank. Also my peace lilies lives and thrives in both fish tank and vases filled with water. I have some stones and mosses in the vases as well as water snails and everything lives happily 😊 I throw in a couple of fish flakes every few weeks for the snails and add some water to replace what evaporates, that’s it for caring and maintenance 😁
My oldest vase, standing on my dining table far away from any natural light, is 3.5 years old, the water is clear and clean, the plant and snails are alive, healthy and slowly growing.
Very good 👍
Hi Rich, you got me into buying a monsters deliciosa. Your passion and knowledge about this plant is infectious (: now I’m reading lots about monsteras, but your videos basically sum up all the articles I’ve found! 🪴 when I said I bought ONE monstera that was a lie. I bought 3 😅 After purchasing the ‘twins’ , the third one was a definite rescue: it had broken leaves, the soil was seriously soggy, looked very weathered but it was £5 at the local plant stand. I could not leave her with those evil people! She’s doing much better at mine. Once all fully established I will give away one of them - some of my plants end up as birthday presents 🎁 🪴💚
Excellent! You’re doing you’re bit for the plant world 👏
Probably occurred to you now but i put my monstera in a similar plastic pot and drilled holes in the bottom and put a serving tray under it. Also I'm restarting my adensoni too, I'm rooting all the nodes in water hope I can get some starts like you did cuz I love their leaves 🍃 ❤
Once they're firing on all cylinders they're greeat
They root in water really well and quickly like pothos cuttings. Actually I have both in a jar now.👍
🪴 Thank you for sharing your knowledge ! ❤
You bet!
I wish I had room for this lovely plant.
Thanks bro appreciate
My soil mix is a bit too chunky to use a moisture meter. I messed up when using medium orchid bark and added a bit of leca so the probe just won’t consistently go down but it drains so well I don’t think I need to worry about water pooling up anywhere. Just have to constantly pick up my pots to check them
Yep sounds like you’re fine
I have found that a Pothos grows best when the roots are really crowded and underwatered🎉!
I thought you stopped with compost due to fungus gnats ?
and also, if your plant keeps growing in winter you can keep fertilizing, you can also dilute it more or fertilize less often to be on the safe side.
I had a monstera produce 2 new shoots after cutting off everything, but it´s not guaranteed. (it was a super leggy rescue plant)
get a big repotting mat or tarp to repot indoors with easy cleaning up ;)
also you can easily do single leaf cuttings in water (moss or perlite) , no need to do 2 leafs and remove the bottom one
happy growing all :D
👍👍👍
Great videos! I really am impressed with the quality difference from when you started to now. I think it would be good to include a little extra time to click your suggested videos arlt the end. The end comes so abruptly that I never have time as I'm almost always doing something else while having your videos playing. Tasks like dishes.
Thank you. I'll bear that in mind 👍
@@SheffieldMadePlants Many thanks. And may your plants stay healthy and strong!
I love the abrupt ending. It’s like Rich says ‘I’ve put my heart in this video, black screen, bye’
@@_evangelina__ That wouldn't be bad, but I never have time to click the suggested video before the next one starts. But maybe that's me, and because I'm usually doing something else too.
I purchased a small deliciosa a few years ago as a baby, maybe 9-10 inches, and it's about 2 1/2 - 3 feet now. It pushed out a leaf with 1 hole 3 leaves ago but it hasn't since. I thought it was maybe my lighting since it's not super close to a window, so I moved it under a grow light. The last 2 leaves have been really big and healthy looking but no holes. It's still a young plant so I can't really tell based on the leaves, but now i'm seriously questioning if I have a borsigiana and not a deliciosa...
Time will tell I guess
I’m a known pothos killer typically my weapon of choice is water. So I do a purring mix with 20% mychorzial cactus soil, 20% miracle grow potting soil , 20% perlite , 20% pumice gravel, 20% orchid park that has kept them from retaining too much water and not drying out. I also live in a very rainy, cold, wet climate.
Great stuff 👍
I mist my plants and I will keep doing it. BUT I don‘t just mist them with water, I use water with peppermint-oil and wipe the leaves down. This way I keep dust off the leaves, pests are less likely to be interested AND my cats leave the plants alone aswell bc they don‘t like the smell of it
Can't argue with that!
One plant in a single pot can eventually put out a second stem, and even branch after cutting, but I went for vine length, rather than bushy.
Hi Mr Sheffield! Loved this video. I have a Monstera Adansonii that I adore! I do mist it every other day because I figured the plant gets rained on in the jungle and might miss a shower. My plant is in my dining room, by a south facing window and I live in a very dry climate, so the water evaporates quickly. Besides I use the water to actually clean the leaves, so she has no dust. She is healthy and thriving. Thank you for all the tips!
Ah so you're basically cleaning it. No probs with that. Not sure it does much else though
I have most of my plants on a ledge with grow light it has a register under but I have a reflector over the register among it into room instead up towards plants seems to be working
Nice little hack
Hey could you make a video on how to tell the deliciousa from the burgoinysa, i probably butchered the name, but got my monstera from Lowe’s and i want to know what it is
It's in this video isn't it?
Thanks
You bet!
I didn’t water her when I got her from the store for about two weeks cause she was pretty moist. So who knows. I don’t know if I should prune all the leaves with the black spots or just leave them.
I wanted to stick a rod to help it grow up, but don’t want to damage a root or roots. I got a fan and placed it about 6 feet from plant and she loved that!! She perked up, but noticed the black spots at the same time on my leaves. It was only one, now three of them have them. I’m truly lost, i feel like a bad plant parent.
Have you checked out the roots?
@@SheffieldMadePlants I just checked it right now. It’s root bound and has some root rot damage but also noticed little tiny bugs moving around the root rot area. So tomorrow morning I am going to repot her. It will be my first time doing any of that, super nervous!!! Going to cut off any damaged roots and transfer her to a slightly bigger pot. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
I have never understood the advice to wait to repot…
The plant is stressed by moving it. So let’s get it happy then repot and stress it again 🤷♀️ I repot right away, stressed once. They all do very well. And most of the time the soil the plants come in is usually terrible.
Besides that you’re right on 👍
I do this too, because the plants I buy (common and cheap) usually come with a fabric plug that has mushy roots inside. It seems to be the done thing in the growing industry these days.
I've not had bad luck with the soil plants come in so i leave it alone. Mainly i'm lazy though 😅
@@SheffieldMadePlants I wouldn't consider anybody who runs a business and takes care of hundreds of plants lazy. You just have different priorities.
Interesting factoid on photosynthesis they didn't teach in school. Plants only produce oxygen during photosynthesis stage. Depending on the time of year most of the time plants are net consumers of oxygen. This is why oxygen levels in planted aquariums drop over night and its recommended to have some means of artificially introducing oxygen back into the water column during the nocturnal period to reduce risk of fish suffocating, particularly if you inject co2 into your system during lighting periods
The stomatas are under the leaves, not on top, so dust does not block them. Dust does impact photosynthesis however
Thank you for this helpful video. Where did you get the beautiful narrow plank for your adansonii

I don't water my monstera at all in the winter. I leave it alone. I've had it for 3 years and it's gone from a tiny thing to absolutely massive. I have repotted it 3 times, once a year. It's inside in the winter in the basement and outside out of direct sun in the summer.
When you say don’t fertilize in winter, would that still apply for plants that are mostly/exclusively grown by grow lights? I’m wondering whether or not I should continue fertilizing my plants in my grow cabinet and other areas that don’t get really any natural light.
If they’re under grow lights then yes continue to feed
Mine droops, but i have it in full Australian midday sun. Butnit is growing FAST
Great stuff 👍
Not you shouting "LEAVE IT" at Mr Sheffield 💀. Great advice!
😂
I bought my first plant 2 years ago and i have a few (3, plus spider babies). I know i should restart my straggly mess - it's scary though!
You’ve got this ✊
I only have 53plants plus 30 babies my daughter's taking the babies with her to a craft sale people love buying the babies
Very good 👍
great video as always! can you please help me with my monstera? a couple of leaves are folded since the day I bought it. they dont look sick but they never unfold. any ideas?
Might be a humidity issue. Try spritzing with water every once in a while they are unfurling.
All my accessible apartment windows face some sort of southern Kansas light. The more delicate small ones get my tiny South-East window. But everybody else? They simply have to learn to deal. Thankfully I try to get most plants as young as possible, even growing many from seed, and this seems to elongate any issue. The bigger ones I’ve inherited have had trouble, but between some clever arranging of other plants in front of them and just saying F it and letting some leaves get burned, the new growth is stronger and happier than ever.
Very sensible
From now on I'm just going to post that my adansonii has brown leaves. No context.
I need to cut back my golden pothos for the same baldness but I don't have space for props and I don't have the heart to throw out something that could grow!
I don’t think you’re alone on that. Mine gets brown spots for no reason 🤷🏻♂️
Hi I new leaves are getting up verses your new ones are on the bottom of the plant
Hey. I know this isn't what you talked about but is there a certain time of year that is best to cut a tineke ficus? I am thinking of cutting mine.
I'd wait till early spring. They pretty much stop growing in winter, at least in my house, so you might as well wait
Mr. Sheffield (in my most non American voice I can muster) I saw a monstera leaf shaped support. (One of your tour videos that I can't find again at the moment)
Can I please get the link for that?

OK OK nevermind my original comment about slicin and dicin your plant with a razor to get those awesome holes and divisions that I'm certain you'll see on those 300second hacks site. It WILL NOT WORK. Simply follow the advice from our wonderfully cheeky chap here Mr. Sheffy and you'll have the finest monstera on the block! 👍😉
Thank you 😊
Soon as its a nice day i put mine outside for a few hours
My west windows would cook my plants. My east and south seem to be the sweet spot.
👍👍👍
Wauw! Beautiful. I actually have a baby thai. Its like 3cm big😍 what advice would you give me
Good light and the right watering are the best things you can do
Where did you get that awesome piece of wood shaped like a leaf on the adansonii? I have a beautiful one that has grown 3ft in a year. I have him on a pole but I would rather have that trellis.
Nevermind I found it-Trellis is by Treleaf. I rewatched the video and saw the name @38:07- I love your videos and am the proud parent of a deliciosa and adansonii.
Thank you 😊
I guided an aerial root back into the soil a few months ago and it grew into it pretty well. But as of recent the part that is on the outside all of a sudden got super thin. What could that be?
I wouldn’t worry. It’s only the aerial root
Can you make a video about orchids please
I purchased a cutting with larger leaves and potted it in a bigger pot. It is not getting new leaves at 10 months. Has a little shoot sticking out but I think it might be the stem that attaches to the support. I am going to give it a support moss pole that I recently purchased. Should I repot it into a smaller planter so the roots are tighter?
Potentially yes. Sounds like it's focussing on root growth rather than leaf growth
@@SheffieldMadePlants ~ literally had two growths poke out the next week. Not sure if they will be leaves or a root 🤷🏽♀️
Question. My monstera is doing well. I have a lot of fenestrations and it’s very happy. Only issue is, it’s starting to get closer and closer to my ceiling. If I propagate the top cutting, will that top cutting keep growing the huge fenestrated leaves or will it go back to smaller leaves?
The top cutting should continue as it is because it will just continue from the same stem. Mid cuttings need to grow a new stem so come out juvenile
@@SheffieldMadePlants Thank you for answering! And thank you for making such great content! I really enjoy watching your channel! It's one of the best!
How humid do you keep your home? I try to keep a minimum of 50% but it is HARD in Quebec winters
Sheffield is humid. My house is normally at least 75%
My monstera deliciosa leaves are HUGE. Huge! But so far only one row of big holes.😂 I want it to have the smaller holes with the big holes.
It's NEVER ENOUGH!!!!😂😂😂
🤣
