I almost fainted when I saw you chopp the plant! It's such a beautiful specimen.
I recently found your channel on my journey of transitioning my menace of a monstera and other aroids to moss poles! It's been awesome seeing you come out of your shell from older to newer uploads. Your enthusiasm shows and spreads the best vibes, not to mention all the helpful info and stunning plants in the background! :)
I love the way you looked at the camera and chopped the root, then reassured us "IT'S OKAY" 😂
😅😅😅
That is the most gorgeous monstera I’ve ever seen.
Your plants grow 4x quicker than mine. 😍🤩
I just got my first albo today! I bought a single node cutting, but the seller accidentally double sold that cutting so they upgraded me to an established cutting with great roots and an unfurling baby leaf 😍 So lucky!
Lucky you :) happy growing !
@ohrats731 CONGRATS 🍾 Where did you purchase your Albo cutting? If you don’t mind me asking… I just got and am loving my first Thai Con 😇💚 Now I am interested in owning an albo to extend my collection!🤞 However, I am struggling to find a reputable and reasonable seller. Your insight would be much appreciated 😇
Thank you!
@@sydneyplantguyI LOVE YOU! Coming to Sydney soon!!!🤞💚💚💚
Your new place is looking so beautiful! I love how the greenhouse and surrounding plants frame the videos so well. I am also a fan of the name “upside down water bottle technique,” I use the same for my poles haha. I’m looking forward to seeing how your albo will look in the future!
Thank you :)
I had wrote you on your Q&A last one you had and this was 1 of my 2 questions I asked you on Instagram!! And here goes the video!! Regardless if you made it from the question I asked, this CZcams video answered all my Questions on Chop and Extend!! Thanks !!😃👍💚
Seen you do it so many times, done it myself so many times - and yet watching you do these never gets old!
Hehe glad it’s not too repetitive :)
I find it so cool that you have suhc a large plant and such a little pot! You made me realise my current monstera is in a pot waaaay too big- he's just pushing out roots.
Wow! I just put my albo on a moss pole last week. The aerial roots are voracious! Almost instantly digging in. It's just incredible. Im excited to see the possibilities. Thank you for your lessons!! 💚 #priceless
Thank you :)
Love how your videos inspire my plant journey. Just made my first moss pole! Happy days! 🎉 It was a huge mess but I have visions of giant Jan leaves coming soon
Tqsm for the inspiring video. I'm overcoming my depression after losing my Monstera Aurea 😢
Always enjoyable seeing you at work in the garden !
Jan that was very helpful particularly the cutting between nodes while still on a pole.
What a gorgeous plant!
Thanks :)
Thank you for these demo and good advices
Always such good info and inspiration! I thought I'd nearly pass out with the chop, but that root system is the magic.
LOVE watching your videos and catching up to what's next.
All the best!
Thank you:)
Great video my plant friend..as usual you never fail to give great advice.
I would love to just live in your greenhouse! Wow!! SO beautiful 😍
I'm loving your timing..I catch these super fast..yayyyy
Loving your timing too :)
Thanks for the info
My new favorite youtuber. Love your videos and your vibe. So just thank you!
Thank you so much :)
Awesome deliciosa; thanks for sharing Jan!
Thanks for watching :)
Thanks for this quick recap Jan...very helpful 👌🏼
Glad it was helpful!:)
Thanks for sharing your plants look beautiful
Thank you :)
Thx for another great and informative video!
Glad you enjoyed it!:)
Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing plants lovely collection beautiful garden lovely
Thanks :)
Absolutely fantastic. Thankyou from Queensland.
Thanks :)
I have bought my first monstera, it has pups. So today im thinking of splitting them and repotting them.
You have converted me to the moss pole. I'll make one for it/them as I see the benefit for the plant and maintenance and future pruning.
Gorgeous variegated monstera beautiful 😍
Thank you :)
Beautiful
Very informative !
And results speak for themselves ‼️
💚🌵🌿🍀💚
Thanks :) proof is in the pudding
That's right‼️👌
💚🍀🌿🌵💚
This was quite helpful! May I have two moss poles and it’s definitely been a learning curve, but my queen marble is getting to the top of her first pole so I will add a second soon. Thanks for the knowledge and inspiration!
Thanks :)
Genius❤
Great video again, thanks 🙏 Learned a lot, but was a bit distracted when a very essential someone didn't show up. Where was Brad?? 😻 Just got so used to him in every video it feels like it was incomplete. Well, it wasn't of course. You did a great job. Looking forward to the next ones, hopefully with the fury supervisor
Excellent information Jan,❤
Thanks :)
I just bit the bullet and brought home a Thai constellation, it’s almost ready for a pole now, can’t wait. I love that the variegation is textured, made me wonder how variegated species came about, maybe it started as a bacterial or fungus problem.. I dunno but it’s beautiful
Hi, Jan! I just found your channel a couple of weeks ago and have enjoyed your videos. You’ve inspired me to try vertical growing.
Thank you :) happy growing :)
Thank you. I’ll have to send you pictures of my mature plants in about 2 years 😊 @@sydneyplantguy
Je 🤞 pour que le haut de la monstera active suffisemment rapidement ses racines aèriennes. Cette plante, de toutes façons, est superbement panachée 🤩 Merci pour cette vidéo "risque-tout" ! 🍀
Thanks again for inspiration! Always a great learning experience. The chop technique is awesome.. It's gonna be hard for me to do my first chop! Lol..
Practice makes the master :) thank you
Your awesome 😊
Thank you :)
I love watching your videos I hope to one day grow plants like you 🌴🍀🪴
Thank you :) you can do it, just get started & stay patient :)
this is just the inspiration that i needed! can't wait for my thai con, variegated peru + swiss cheese to reach the tops of their poles so i can use your tips. can't get over how gorgeous your plant + new backdrop are, great work!
Thank you so much :)
I have done several extends but no one is at the chop and extend phase, can’t wait for mine to get that mature! Great video! ❤
It will happen sooner than later :) happy growing !
Thanks Jan. We've got a p verrucosum that we're undecided on where to go with as it has 4 stems that have reached beyond the top of the moss pole. This video will help us make up our minds, I'm sure...I hope😁
Happy growing :)
Thanks, Jan. Can I call you that? Ha ha ha. I’ve watched all your other videos regarding chop and extend… so I don’t know how it is that I learn something new every time you talk about it. Very informative.
Question for an expert! If you were to place a divider of some sort between the two poles to avoid roots growing into the lower pole from the pole above, would that be detrimental to the roots? Would restricting their ability to grow down naturally give you smaller/weaker roots? Trying to be cheeky (lazy) with my future massive plants thanks to you 😊😂
Mm roots will find a way regardless i’d say … but ultimately proof is in the pudding so maybe just give it a try :)
Interesting question 👍 Are you thinking something like fly screen that's course enough to allow water through, but fine enough to stop roots . Hope you'll pass on results if you give it a try. 🙂
@@robynfisher4455that’s a great idea! Thank you for the suggestion!! Will definitely need to try a couple methods and report back🤞🏼
Pozdrawiam z Polski ❤️🍀
Thanks
Thank you so much :) really appreciate it
i have been using your tips on moss poles on my albo monstera as well and your plants are such great inspiration! my individual poles are not as big as yours but i have already extended it 2 times! keep up the awesome work! love your videos!
Thank you :) glad my videos help :)
Thanks for reminding me my albo monstera is waiting for a moss pole, along with 2 Thai cons. The debate continues here on whether we do moss or wood plank, or absolutely nothing to keep this jungle in check 😹
Deliciosa probably doesn’t NEED a moss pole but it works out a treat if you ever want to propagate your plant
I watched both of your videos on your soil mix, actually a few times each. But I’m curious what’s your most current and updated to-go and most favorite mix. For example, what’s on the one you used for this repot? Thanks!!
It always changes based on the ingredients I have available :) the ingredients always stay the same but I don’t have them all stocked all the time :) as long as the end result has a combination of aeration, drainage & water/nutrient retention it will be a hit :)
Hello! I'm Letícia. My partner helped with your move. I really admire your work here! My Brazilian followers love you too. I'm heading back to my country in March, and it would be a dream come true to visit you and showcase your plants to my Brazilian followers 😭
I know it's a big ask, but I'm passionate about your plants, and it would mean the world to me. I'd really appreciate a response. 💚 Cheers!
Hellooo :) I’m sure we can arrange that :) i’m shit at keeping on top of all my comments so shoot me an email please :) enquiries@sydneyplantguy.com
I’m quite new in the hobby? How do you get rid or control gnats? i do love my plants but these little critters are quite annoying
❤🌿💖🌿💖🌿💖🌿❤
Quick question: Should this be done during the growing season (aka spring) or (slightly) before it to give plants time to cope with stress and reestablish and be ready to fire new shoots once the growing season start?
I do it once it reached the top, irrespective of the time of the year but it also depends on the conditions you’ve got to offer. It does induce a bit of shock so you don’t want suboptimal conditions to make it worse. If you’re concerned, stick to the same guidelines you’d use for any other repot :)
I purchased a Monstera Delicioso from amazon. it looked dreadful upon arrival but is producing new leaves prolifically. The issue is, I repotted it upon receipt but I'm sure the front of the plants, there are two) are facing each other. Should I replant to get them in the correct position so they can be supported on a moss pole?
Hello, I'm really learning from your videos, may i ask what fertilizer you use in your indoor plants?
Many thanks, evan
Hey :) thanks! The nutrients I use are linked in the description :)

2:16 😂😂
Obviously there is water left in the heavy decorative pot after watering , do u leave it there ?
I have made 12 moss poles , all looking good so far , what size bottles do u use , litre ones to heavy ?..
Thank you for all your videos I am addicted,
No, empty the water from the pots! My bottles are 1l :) thanks
Is it necessary to rotate the plant regularly so that all sides of the plant receives light?
Depends on the look you are going for. Suppose aesthetic preference
What size is that grow pot the plant is in?
20cm
My monstera leafs become green-yellowish what should I do ?
You can make App about plantLovers, if you wish :) like good game
if possible...i want to get a lower part of the plant...
😁
is that possible?
Some if might be for sale at the Plsnt Collectors Fair in April:)
My local garden center where i buy my plants only sells multiple monsteras in one pot. I want to put mine on a moss pole but don't know what to do with the other ones. So i was wondering how two monsteras would do sharing one pole? would it get bushier or would they compete and dont grow as large? 🤔
They can definitely share a pole but u’ll most likely see one outperform the other :) not a bad thing… just depends in what aesthetic preference you have :)
@@sydneyplantguy Thank you!
🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴
the newest leaf just lost the mutation and thats how u can restart ur plant value?
If the plant has reverted you can try and get the variegation back by propagating. But I’d wait toll the plant has produced a couple of reverted leaves in a row :)
I’ve been having such a tough time getting my andisonii to grab onto my moss pole. I have it positioned correctly, tied in specific points and I may occasionally let the moss dry out. It’s half way up my 2nd extension and no roots through the pole. Any tips?
MM interesting, is it growing well in general?! i.e. is it sizing up in leaf size? It's most likely a conditions thing - try more light (without burning it) and if you have the ability to, higher humidity.
@@sydneyplantguy the bottom pole is maturing well, the top half the leaves are coming out rather small in my opinion. Thanks for the reply!
There is no back end of a round pot...sorry, me taking things literally as I do. Made me giggle 😂❤😂
I’ve done this with my monstera but the top part is very droopy now, will it get stronger again or is it dying?
It going droopy might be a sign that it didn’t have enough roots to support the size of the cutting. Was is thoroughly rooted into the pole before the cut? Your priority now should be establishing a healthy root system so be careful with too much water. If the plant can’t absorb that water due to insufficient roots u might cause rot. Try and provide it the best possible conditions
@@sydneyplantguy yes it did but I had to cut them drop the pole but left them as long as I could.
Where i can donate so you can finally buy pliers for cutting plastic and metal parts :D
Those scissors are perfect 🤷🏻♂️
To be honest, im using them too because i always forget where i put my pliers haha @@sydneyplantguy
I live in Mumbai and it is a nightmare procuring good quality unadulterated sphagnum moss. I have been watching your videos from a quite some time now and I think it’s not gonna work if I use planks or coir moss pole to get the similar kind of growth….. anybody has any suggestions? If not sphagnum moss then what ?…. I have a 2 M. deliciosa, 2 adansonii and one esqueleto…
Just make sure the support is also a growing medium so I would stay away from planks! You could try coco chips or bark instead :)
Are you German? 1st time here
What is the name of this Monstera ???
I literally say it within the first 4 seconds of the video :P
Comment. I love you, I caught a newly posted vid and want to boost it. I lobe (haha) your channel.
Thank you :) appreciate it :)
deliciosa ? not albo borsigiana?
I prefer not to cut trough the whole stem to activate all nodes. It is okay to just cut through the half of the stem to keep the stability.
yes you can put a small notch about 1/3rd of the way into the stem between nodes you 3ant to activate. usually it will be 1-3 nodes activated below the notch, and the one above often too, if it's not already.
Ty for the vd. If i keep the bottom pole whole & add a new extension will i have to worry about rot of roots that were cut. You mentioned something about it but didnt quit understand. Ty 💜🪴
Technically yes but i’ve done it a few times and haven’t noticed any issues :)
Hey buddy how big is the pot do you use for these monstera's
20cm
@@sydneyplantguythank you, I can only find 7inch tall I don't know if that is tall enough.
what a great spot to do your video's, looks so good, great tutorial yet again, my only disappointment was I didn't get to see Brad 😺😆🪴
thank you :) he was sleeping :)
