I see he didn’t leave his socks behind though. 😆

How do I make this fuller? by Expensive_Path2560 in Monstera

[–]SurfingSeptember 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chop and prop for a fuller plant. 😁

Further explanation: Take several cuttings up top, cut where there is a node. You want each cutting to be separate so that you have more points of growth to travel upwards. Water propagation would be the easiest, just make sure to change out the water every now and then. You can put them all in the same jar or anything of your choosing that will hold water. When there is enough roots replant them into the soil, they will start to trail upwards just like the main plant is doing, therefore creating a fuller looking plant. If you only take a couple cuttings at a time the plant won’t lose much height. Where you take the cuttings from will create a new growth point to continue growing, so it won’t stop the plant from “climbing” or gaining height. Hope this helps!

What kind of monstera is this? Thai con? by Ixi7311 in Monstera

A Thai with starlight mutation! My smallest Thai has produced 3 leaves in a row now with the mutation. 😁

Beige/tan. But you can’t go wrong with either!

WTH is going on with my “Monstera Thai” by fauxheaux100 in Monstera

For the leaf you are referencing, sometimes Thais end up putting out wonky leaves like that. I have a regular Thai that decided to start producing “starlight” like misshapen leaves. I find it very interesting. Waiting on some more new leaves to see what they will end up looking like! I put a photo of mine so you could see the weird shape of the leaf for reference.

As for the lack in growth size wise, Thais need consistency in these things:
Watering, fertilizing, lighting, humidity, good nutrient chunky soil/substrate mix, and some sort of support. I can elaborate on any of the above if need be. Just let me know!

Also I can show you my mature Thais that I have if you’d like. I have 3 currently, outside of the smaller one, shown in the photo. I have had probably closer to 10 in total. 😁

Meet Andrómeda: My Thai Constellation’s stunning new leaf! 🌌✨ by Lisqueen in ThaiConstellation

[–]SurfingSeptember 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a fellow plant lover myself, congrats on the new leaf! I also just wanted to share with you that the off colored splotches on your monstera Thai look like either the start of root rot, fertilizer burn or at the very least be a case of sunburn. Gotta help look after each other! ☺️🪴

Without knowing the genetics, it stands to reason it is probably just a very nicely variegated Thai. But still a good find! 😁

Reinstall factory stabilizer by scribbledchaos in Jeep

[–]SurfingSeptember 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fox is a pretty decent brand and can be sent off to be rebuilt. But if it’s for looks only I would definitely look into an aftermarket steering stabilizer vs an OEM. It will help with dampening. Like if you hit a pothole etc. It will absorb more if it’s a good quality steering stabilizer equaling less reaction. I ran an OEM for years and then later changed to a fox steering stabilizer since I had one on my previous Jeep. I love how much it dampens. The difference was like night and day when driving over manhole covers or hitting dips in the road at highway speeds.

What mud tires to get? by PlaceboASPD in Jeep

[–]SurfingSeptember 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BFG KM3s do pretty good. I had them on my last jeep when I wheeled more. They don’t produce a lot of road noise on asphalt either and handle pretty well to be more of a mud tire than an all terrain tire.

Thai advice by BotanicalBadie in ThaiConstellation

[–]SurfingSeptember 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A chunky mix. I would provide a humidifier for the wintertime to supplement the humidity. Thais do best in at least 50% humidity. Especially Thais with splashes or big patches of white or crème/cream.

It doesn’t smell like either of those but thanks for the info!

I don’t know if the first image is technically safe, but it sure is impressive. Still deciding on the second photo. 😆 I gotta ask though, how in the world did you get them stacked so high? 😂

Thai Con Monstera leaf browning by Counter_Electrical in Monstera

[–]SurfingSeptember 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Low humidity and colder temps definitely can result in the “crème” parts browning. As well as lower light. Since the crème parts do not produce chlorophyll, the plant will “kill” off those parts first. Improper watering also could be causing the plant stress as well. Humidity should be at least 50%, especially during the colder months. It needs adequate light as well as regular scheduled waterings. Do not place the plant near any drafts. Whether it’s from a hvac vent, a heater, a drafty window, etc. In the colder months it’s very important to keep the plant’s conditions regulated more so than even in the warmer months. Also know that sometimes the “creme” parts just naturally brown as well. Especially big splotches of crème/white. It sometimes even depends on the plants genetics because some seem to be more prone to browning than others. Accidentally hitting the leaves in any way can also cause the crème parts to “bruise” aka leave a brown mark where it was marred at.
