After 2 years, I'm finally repotting my Monstera and sharing my plant care tips. In this video, I share how I repot my over 2 yr old Monstera Deliciosa while sharing some plant care tips along the way. I go over key factors to keeping your Monstera happy. So if you are looking for answers as to why your monstera leaves are turning yellow, or how to train and stake your plant, how often you should water a monstera, how much light a monstera needs, and the often debated leaf fenestrations, then look no further! I have all this covered in the video and more.

Hey guys! So sorry I haven’t uploaded any new videos. For the ones that sent me messages on IG asking for more videos, I thank you! If you stuck around and are coming back to my channel, I just want to say thank you to you too. I really appreciate you guys! Hope you enjoy this one and let me know what you would like to see next! 😁

Hi! Did you like the height of the moss pole or wish it was taller? I’m trying to decide if I like when it’s the same size as the height of my plants or should stick out a lot taller. Loved your video!

My monstera haven’t grown a new leaf for the last 6 months, do u think it needs a larger pot? Would be nice to include the pot you used before with the new one so we know the new pot size 👍🏻

@LifeStyleataGlance 4 года назад

Hi! Sorry so late on this. Try fertilizing it first and see if it responds to it. If not, then yeah try repotting it and give it fresh soil. You can go up 1 to 2 pot sizes! Mine are in huge containers, I don’t remember the size now but I started off with a 6 in pot. Hope that helps!

@MariposaMarie_ 3 года назад

I'm a new plant mom, so sorry if these are stupid questions :) but I noticed that you placed your monstera in a second pot. Does the second pot act as a humidifier for it? Are there rocks at the bottom to help with drainage? If not, what do you use to prevent root rot? Thank you & your video is helped me decide that I am going to finally buy a monstera!

@introspectiveseeker 3 года назад

If you are referring to the white rectangle box, that was just the box she used as a base so she can keep the soil mess inside of it and not in her working space.

@introspectiveseeker 3 года назад

And if you are referring to the white round pot at the end that she finally used, that was just a way to hide the plastic nursery pot (grower pot) and make visible a more beautiful pot for aesthetics

@VeryKinkyCurl 2 года назад

I have an nursery insert (the black pot she has within the decorative white pot). I a new too, but I got mine doing some research saying that the plant love to breathe. I found some nursery pot with holes all over. For the first mixture I used miracle fro potting mix/orchid course blend mix/perlite. Those three are great for tropical plants.

@maricarol85 Год назад

While it looks great that way, I would hate having to remove the growing/nursery pot out each time for watering, waiting for it to drain, then placing back into the decorative pot. Guess I'm more of an easy & simple kind of plant mom. LOL

@candyyyybabeeee 4 месяца назад

Soo I was trying to insert my first moss pole in my new monstera since she is 2 ft tall already BUT I realized mid way that the moss pole was not gonna fit in her original pot which I wanted to keep her in. So I ended up having to repot her into the pretty pot that her plastic pot was sitting in. The pretty one has one decent size drainage hole but my question is do you think it’ll be enough to dry out? 😭😭 I’m terrified to cause it root rot.

@allisonc2701 3 года назад

Hi there! I just recently got a monstera, and I’m reading everywhere that monstera soil needs to be slightly acidic at about a ph of 5.5, so a lot of “soil recipes” say to add peat moss or a special type of bark or orchid mix. What is your take on this? What do you recommend. The plant I received came in a nursery pot which is what she is still in, and she has a mix of potting soil, peat moss, sphagnum moss, and perlite. I want to take her out of her nursery pot and plant her with a moss pole but I don’t know if I should keep the soil or change it. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks!

@allisonc2701 3 года назад

@@amarylis8128 hey there, I found a few recipes that are fairly similar and they seem to work fairly well for these other people on RU-vid. Kaylee Ellen has a really good Aroid Mix, as does Planterina, but I like the chunkier mix better and from what Kaylee Ellen says in her video, it just seems like the better mix for me. I’ve done some research and have read that the items included in the mix to adjust the pH so that could be why it works so well. I just made the Kaylee Ellen aroid mix from her video this weekend and planted my Monstera in it. Hopefully it does well! If you’d like I can give you an update in a couple of weeks?

In your response to “the Floyd murder”..... Have you ever heard of Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams or Larry Elder? They are our national treasures. Walter died this year, but you can still watch his documentary “Suffer No Fools” along with so much wisdom he has left behind. Jason Riley did a documentary on Thomas Sowell entitled “Common Sense in a senseless world”. Larry Elder’s documentary “Uncle Tom” is out and phenomenal! These are our national treasures yet their names and amazing contribution to the world are silenced. Especially, during “black history” month. Why?

@LifeStyleataGlance 3 года назад

Thanks for taking the time to write this. I’m definitely going to look into these documentaries. I can only speak for myself but I’m honestly guilty of not educating myself on these issues. Until Mr Floyd’s murder, I honestly never took the time to understand the realities black people faced. Since then, I’ve been trying to educate myself and be more aware of what’s going on. I hear you loud and clear. Again, thanks for taking the time to write this. We all need to hear it!

Hello and thank you for the video. My Monstera plant has grown leaves towards the floor as I didn’t have a moss pole and the branches are too stiff to bring up towards a pile now. Is there anyway to fix it?

@LifeStyleataGlance 3 года назад

Hi! Thanks so much for watching! You can try to train it by using twine to tie it gently. Every couple of days try and move it closer to the moss pole and keep repeating. It may take several months unfortunately. If that doesn’t work, you may have to just trim out the pieces that are too stiff and propagate them. Hope that helps!

@@chloe_montoya7282 I know about other products but she’s not using that type of product so how will it be lengthened

So I put mine in miracle grow normal soil, I'm scared of over watering it i got it a day ago, but I've never had one.. do you think it needs a different soil?

@LifeStyleataGlance 3 года назад

Hi! That soil on its own tends to retain moisture so just be sure to always check the soil before you give it water. If you don’t like sticking your finger in the soil then use a moisture meter! I wait until mine is completely dry or reads 3 on the meter! Hope that helps!

@daltonhernandez9958 3 года назад

I'll give that a shot foruse!

Do you let the top roots just hang out because that’s what mine is doing

@LifeStyleataGlance 3 года назад

Hi! I leave the roots alone on mine and just let them hang down. Mine is on a plant stand so they’re not all over the floor just yet 😂

@anayamari1 3 года назад

LifeStyle at a Glance okay ty mine isn’t that bad yet but do u suggest waiting until winter is over or can I repot now since it’s inside

@LifeStyleataGlance 3 года назад

I usually wait until after winter to repot mine. If you do pot up, just make sure you’re not overwatering since they’re not growing in the winter.

I am soon done with Monstera as they grow too big and three turn into fifty in one year

@LifeStyleataGlance 3 года назад

😂😂 They’re definitely fast growers so I don’t blame you. You can take cuttings and grow a smaller plant for yourself and give away the larger one 😂🤣

@flamom1 3 года назад

You need to keep it climbing up & not out

@Drainman 3 года назад

@@flamom1 The ones I have are from a movie prop and have no rhyme or reason as they all have a mind of their own.And I wont give them away because i cant be sure they will be cared for so my Monsteras are now my Monsters.I wish I could plant them in the wild and set them free.

It Looks like U need a Bigger pot just saying

@LifeStyleataGlance 4 года назад

Hi! I could have gone up another size up but honestly it wasn’t really pot bound to begin with. I just wanted to give it fresh soil. Maybe next year I could go up another size if it needs it. Thanks so much for watching!
