    I agree wholeheartedly about the monstera deliciosa being a beginner plant and a master growers plant. I've had one for 4 years now, and three of those years I wasn't really educated as to how to take care of houseplants, so it went through lots of neglect. Now im completely obsessed, and since I've been taking care of it better and understanding how it grows and what care it needs, each leaf becomes bigger and more fenestrated and I think its just an amazing and beautiful plant!

    • @TechplantChannel

    If you get a good system going, you could literally fill your entire house with different pothos by propagation. And when you get good at it, you'll know which individual vines to propagate if you want to start your own little variations. Like he mentioned, put a big plank in there for them when they're young and they will reward you with fast growth and massive leaves. Pothos are the most fun plant you can have!

    100% agree with the Monstera!!! I did catch myself thinking that it's so common, everybody has it, it's not special anymore, it's a "beginner plant" and therefore not cool anymore. But those thoughts are bullsh0t :D The Monstera Deliciosa is absolutely awesome and there's a reason why it became so popular. It simply looks amazing and it's so so exciting to watch a new leaf grow. It's one of the most FUN plants that I ever owned. I love her!

    Why did all my healthy spider plant shoots die when I pot them up? 😭 I thought I had a low light room, but very few things survive.😔 I bought a small Pothos and kept it in its soil sample, then planted it. It immediately drooped, the leaves had burns and one died.😱 I put it in water only, like another one I have and now it is happy again! The soil was not over damp or too dry.Was this lack of air? I have avocado seeds in water, two just starting to sprout a shoot and little roots developing. I'm going to keep them in water, to see if they will develop into a plant without soil. My last year avocado that has survived😁 and grown, only likes the frosted kitchen window, even though I am in chilly England. My new little peace lily likes it there too. Another older one only likes the frosted glass bathroom window.

    Spider plants are weeds where I live. I can go grab a pup from many front yards just down the street, but I'm good. Not a fan. There is a huge hype around so-called rare syngonium. I see some cultivars sold for triple digits on Instagram auctions on a regular basis. They are very popular plants. Also, I thought we had given the whole RT tissue culture "mutation" a rest. Everyone knows that they are just juvenile specimens of the same plants that once they mature (under the right conditions) take the same morphology as the ones grown from cuttings of mature plants. Oh yeah, and all those Epipremnum aureum cultivars have been around for decades. There are about twenty cultivars that come and go depending on popularity. (We really need to stop calling them pothos. That's a completely different genus.) Not trying to be pompous with my comment. Just want to get the right kind of information out there.
