Hi,
So far the best plant channel ive found, most plant channels just show their plants and talk talk talk while looking in the camera.
You make a good job showing the care, all the handling, tips and tricks, in an interesting educational way.
Keep it up, I hope you will.
This video was so helpful. My neighbor was throwing away his perfectly good monstera (which I picked up before it went to the bin), it needs reporting and support.
The aerial roots you bury will transition to soil beautifully. That is actually the nature of those roots. To burrow down into the soil and provide added support to the plant. Some claim they attach to bark... it's only true so far as they will develop hair roots where they can penetrate and absorb nutrients. Their main purpose though is to find more substrate.
Oh Jeff where are you, it’s been two weeks, we all are missing you. 😊
I know.....I hope to make something next week. It's been a busy summer and kids are back in school this week.... So I'm hoping in the next week or so I'll have some new fresh fall content
So, what happened to the original bottom portion of the plant? Are you going to try and regrow it or did you discard it?
I'm curious as well.
Same ? I’d like to know thanks..
Ditto
I’m wondering too.
That’s kind of amazing what you did there with the roots 🥰
Thanks! It's been doing great so far
Great video as usual. Was a little late for me, I repotted mine about 2 months ago because of root rot but the main plant was fine and I’m water propagating 3 babies that are getting secondary roots. I live in Georgia near the Florida line and I’m going to plant them outside as an experiment. If they call for nighttime temperature below 50, I’ll cover one up. Below 45 I’ll cover 2 of them up and see how cold the last one can tolerate. I’ll plant them underneath the canopy for a nice microclimate.
I live on the west coast of Florida, tarpon springs zone 9b and I do not cover mine in the winter. They have seen very temporary lows in the high 30s. If you give them a sheltered location from the wind they might just make it! Good luck!😊
Interesting experiment. I hope they make it! 💚
Thanks
What?!?!? Thanks so much for the gift. I really appreciate it and thanks for watching the channel!
Very instructive Jeff…thx!!! 🌿🪴🌱
Thanks again, Nina!!!
Let's hear it for plant chores with kitchen utensils! I do the same. Knife to loosen, and spoon for adding soil 😂
Hahaha....use what you got
Nice to see such a mature monstera on the TreLeaf plank. I have my albo on one too. It's just now starting to get fenestrations on both sides of the leaves.
I directed my aerial roots into the pot and one of them grew right out the bottom LOL it's like 6 inches long and curled around in the drip tray. I think I'm going to have to cut it😂
Love the way you display your soil. That was so clear and helpful. Thank you
Thanks man!
Always Love watching your videos!!! I learn so much! Thankyou!
😁❤️🐾🌿
So nice of you
Ah yes. I have just noticed yelliw tip and edge on one leaf. Potted into larger pot springtime and it takes a good month to be completly dry too the bottom. But im thinking seeing as the roots were very scarce suprizingly( and ot a largish plant which with so few roots its amazing its grown so well and the aeriel roots are now growing too). maybe i shouldnt wait until its dry at the bottom as the roots dont reach there probably?
Great video Jeff. Lots of helpful hints in watching my monstera plant for pests & repotting!👏👍
Glad it was helpful!
Jeff, let me buy you some shears to replace that boxcutter. Please. 😂
Good video. Yeah she was ready for a repot, but the chop and prop was also good.
Do you have an opinion on the xl chunky perlite you can get, I usually go to the hydroponics shop to get it. I have found the bid stuff great to work with. The main downside is that the bag is HUGE.
I like that you are showing for the chop and repot. So many people seem to be afraid to cut their plants, even though it's a great tool for indoor plants.
I appreciate how detailed you are and how you share your thoughts as you go. Keep it up, I hope the channel is good to you.
Hopefully the soltech gets you some new fenestrations soon. The plant is healthy.
Another great video, Jeff. Thanks!
Thanks Tara
You're very brave to have tackled such a radical procedure with a large established Monstera...I wonder if you could call it a 'plantectomy' 🙂. It does make sense though, especially as you have all the right growing conditions/requirements for the newly transplanted stem to re-establish, flourish and produce more of those impressive fenestrations. It's a beautiful specimen!
Even though I'm fairly confident in how a plant will respond, it still makes me quite nervous to chop it up. So far it is doing well
I think it's going to be amazing!@@EverythingPlants
I always enjoy your videos, Jeff. I like to wait until a plant is dry to repot. I find it so much less messy that way. Another cause of yellow leaves is iron shortage for the plant. Monstera Peru is particularly sensitive to this. I give my plants an occasional iron supplement. Keep up the planty🪴🌱🌺🌵🌿
Hi Jeff.
Love your video
Great video Jeff, as usual 🌱🪴🌿🍀
Thanks 👍
There was no way of me breaking down my monsters rootball, had I known at the time I could, I would’ve trimmed it. I still may but repotted, it’s pushing out new growth everywhere, though a lot of it are baby leaves
Sounds like you are doing something right!
Nice plant. I got mine a year ago and went to repot it and it was very rootbound and mostly rotted. So I chopped the plant and put in water. I just got two new babies so if the large one doesn’t make it. And I just found the cutest lipstick plant at Hime depot in a 4” pot it has tiny round green leaves like my cordontha violet plant
1700 FC is NOT "extremely high light." Sunlight in southern California is around 7-9000 FC depending on season and time of day.
1700 is basically "bright indirect" in terms of common plant advice, because it's nowhere near sunlight.
This is in terms of indoor light. Take a light meter around your house and unless you are very close to a window you are not getting 1700FC as indirect medium light
I saw a nice one at Home Depot with splits and fenestrations this week but I passed…sadly my last one didn’t do well so I chopped and water propped so now one is still in water and one in a small pot. It’s a beautiful plant but a lot of work and when you have a large collection it’s too much for me. Look at those roots!!!! Thanks
Another great video
Thanks again!
Look forward to see how the aerial roots transition 💚🪴
Stay tuned!!!
@@EverythingPlants oh I am! 😄💚🪴
@@sonniecampbell1788 😂
Hey Jeff another easy way to check for spider mites, kinda gross but it works lol Take a white sheet of paper or white paper towel an place it under the suspect leaf an flip the top of the leaf with your fingers a couple of times. Then take the paper towel/ paper an lay it on flat surface an run your finger across the paper ect. If you see little smeared red streaks, that’s the smashed spider mite. 🤭lol
That's awesome 👍 I've heard of taking a white piece of paper, but never the smear method
@@EverythingPlants lol
My monsteria is growing slowly the roots are tooo slow plus my leaves are curling because of that
I repotted it and waiting for the roots to grow up
Give more light
Beautiful 😍
Thank you! 😊
Just wondering if you have any suggestions when I use my water meter, my pot is a 16 inch pot and it’s actually deeper than my water meter can go so I’m not sure how I can test the very bottom of my pot?
This is the very reason why I use a bamboo skewer.... Just long enough to reach the bottom. And honestly I find it way more accurate than the moisture meter lol
Where did you get that original stake it had? The one with the design/holes?
It's called Treleaf. Use 'everythingplants' for the discount code. The link is also in the description of this video
@@EverythingPlants Awesome! Thank you!
Do you think it’s better not to put the roots into the soil when they grow long?
I can't say whether it helps the plant or not. You can also cut the aerial roots off.
Thanks u
Thanks for watching
Game Changer Time Saver: I've put those name tags in each with the date I watered. I have 150+ plants in my office and am very busy. Now I check the date instead of constantly checking the soil, if close to how long the plant should go, then I start checking it. Wow, it's relieved a lot of stress and worry for me!! I highly recommend it. Now I'm adding the plant name to the back to not get them mixed up.
Nice 👍
You mentioned filtered tap water is that with a Zero or Brita type filter?
I use a faucet in my laundry room and actually bought an RV water filter which filters out chlorine and etc. I bought it off Amazon. I also use a pH down solution because my water is alkaline
@EverythingPlants OK, thanks. Just bought 4 rooted Monstera D cuttings. Saw someone who advised the aquarium drops (not the PH ones), for tap water that takes out chlorine and fluoride. I'll checkout the RV filture.
@@YonkersNY3636 I use a water tap faucet filter for my upstairs plants
amzn.to/3skPEld
@@EverythingPlants how often does it need a filter change? I tested my water with the Zero Water meter and my tap water read 695. I tested purified water and it read 15. Then distilled water, which read 0. My city's tap water is poison- don't know how they're aloud to call it "water". Distilled water is the only water I use on my plants, though it does get a little pricey when you have 50 plants. But it's actually cheaper in the long run than replacing filters for poisoned tap water. Remember Flint Michigan? Ours isn't as bad, but it sure ain't good.
@@staceyrose5821 what are those measurements? I think the filters need to be changed every 2 to 3 months.... Which I forgot so it's probably been like 6 months
Thanks!
Thanks so very much glorianayeagley9258......I really appreciate the gift!!!!
Great video. What's the name of the light meter app please?
Photone
All fresh and happy 🤩😍🤩💓. Get video.
What do you think of semi hydroponics..can't remember if you ever have any plants in leca..is it bc its no good..or is it too much with the nutrients and lockouts...I'm always fascinated with that pencil in your hand when discussing certain parts of a plant...very interesting it is n awesome.
Mine is growing long-term in a vase of water and doing fabulous. The problem with growing monstera in LECA or just water is dealing with the size and weight. The glass container and the water are very heavy. LECA will make it less heavy but may create problems with lack of support/structure and also changing out the water will be difficult and time-consuming. My experience is limited but basically, growing a large vining plant in water means you will need to maintain the plant in juvenile form indefinitely. Growing in pure water is easiest since you can easily change out the water. Growing in LECA is problematic since you will have to hold in the LECA while you do a water exchange and this will be almost impossible with a very large plant. But, maybe others have had successful experiences?
Hi, I have one in Pon, it grows like crazy: 3 times more leaves than the other in soil. I took cuttings this year and the first next leaf was already mature size.
💚🌱
Thanks Carol
