The spaghetti example was effective.

The wooden skewer is such an easy thing to do but it's amazing how many don't know about it! I have a moisture meter that I bought long ago and I never use it----a dollar store pack of big wooden skewers is my go-to and never fails. I have to say that I got my very young monstera in a pot that was waaaaay to big for it but it has thrived, pushing out new leaves all through winter. I have absolutely no plans to repot her to a smaller pot as long as she is happy where she is. Great video---thank you!

@barbaraowens2299 4 месяца назад

You answered my question! I have a big wild monestera with multiple plants in the same pot. I messed up and was turning the plant, thus the wild child. So I'm debating trying to repot and have the plants all facing forward. I did this with my other monestera and kept hearing "kill this plant".

Ok. The stick trick 🤯 why have I never thought of that simple but genius trick?? My moisture meters don’t work well in chunky soil. Gonna try this. Thank you. Loved the spaghetti/plate analogy!! You’re a great teacher.

@OceanSwimmer 4 месяца назад

@@maargill9404, Was it soaking wet on arrival? Could it have frozen in transit; you would see mushy stems and roots, indicating freeze & thaw in transit. I say hold off on watering it. Let's see what Lee says. BTW....what kind of soil mix did you transplant it into?

@kobresia9 4 месяца назад

Hi, Lee! Can you make a video about controlling the soil acidity? Thanks!

@KillThisPlant 4 месяца назад

I would look towards gardening channels for that. My favorite is Ashley from Gardening in Canada. They'll have much more accurate information. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-y3FV9hT6fIQ.htmlsi=nu9FlxvhGze2FG_r

I had a monstera in a 6 inch pot and I could tell it was just time to repot it. The next size up that I had at home was a 10.5 inch pot. I potted it once and noticed the soil wasn’t draining enough so I took it out and mixed a lot more perlite in it. The leaves are all starting to curl inward. Do I need to downsize the pot? There is not root rot as far as I’m aware. I live in Colorado and it sits on a table about 10 feet from an east window and 10 feet from a west window. There is a bottom leaf that turned yellow but I believe that was from me leaving it in the sunroom for a day prior to potting.

@j.k.8829 4 месяца назад

Heyy, thanks for this video, itˋs very informative! I have a question regarding those tiny leaves at the bottom, would you recommend cutting and removing some of them so that the plant consists mostly of the bigger leaves at the top? Or does this harm the monstera? I mean it looks great in general but I was wondering in I could do something to make it grow a little better :)

@KillThisPlant 4 месяца назад

Leaves produce energy. Removing them reduces energy production and slows growth.

Few important things too add: 1. inserting the skewer in different areas of the pot. If the substrate is not unified across the pot (happens when you repot plants from nursery to a larger pot and you top it with you own soil mix)it could be dry on one side and wet on the other. so make sure you aware of where the root are (approximately). 2. when the stick is dry there is still some water held by the plant itself my recommendation is to wait for softer leaves , and then water!

@KillThisPlant 4 месяца назад

good additional info. I'm a little iffy on point two but it could be a good strategy depending on individual climate and soil type.

@vickykent353 4 месяца назад

Bottom watering plants takes care of that issue. Your second point is very important, too. For example, ZZ plants have their bulbous parts (I can't remember the specific name for them) of their root system that hold water. I've heard it said, specific to ZZ's, when your water meter or chopstick shows dry, wait another week and then water.

I found rot on my plant, potted it in what it was before with the same kind of mix, anyways it’s cut, used rooting powder. Let the cuts dry. and in a bucket of water back where it was. I have propagated a much smaller piece before I’m concerned about these cuttings for some reason. The top cuts have air roots and the bottom node in RO water. For the last two weeks. With an air stone. No new roots growing in the top cuts.. but no new deterioration of the leaves. Can’t remember how long I waited to pot the cutting last tjme. Have not changed the water yet think I should and add fertilizer this time. Feel like I’m doing something wrong. Any ideas?

@KillThisPlant 3 месяца назад

I wouldn't add any fertilizer I would just increase the light if possible.

Decided last week that’s what happening to my giant aloe. I only have one set of windows that get solid light, in my kitchen. Already crammed full of plants and my aloes I spilt from Big Momma are doing great. Mom I left in the living room keeps declining. I’ll take what’s left of her into a smaller pot and cram that into the kitchen. What’s a girl to do. 🤷🏽‍♀️
