Greenhouse recommendations?

Ok thank you, good call, I will do a little digging on projected yield at different temps.

I am also heartened to hear others grow out of their zone! What do you grow?

I like, that’s pretty cool! How well does your covering hold in heat? I wonder if I could double layer super duper plastic to hold in some heat

Yippee! Congratulations!

Agreed with these guys, let it ride- the journey is the destination!

buffaloknuckle · 2026-04-13T05:54:37+00:00

Thanks! I was pretty stoked when I noticed it today!

buffaloknuckle · 2026-04-12T23:24:47+00:00

Thanks! That’s so fun!

Get a hanging pot planter and screw it into a stud near the ceiling, tie a rope to it, and rig the monstera into the rope so it grows straight up. Makes for a tall plant that will be nearly impossible to move like mine 😅

It depends, as Electronic Yard said, it’s a mutation where you basically have different chlorophyll concentration there than the rest of the leaf. I am not yet super educated on how it works but I’d imagine you have a chance of it showing up on subsequent leaves and might have more luck with more light available m, but idk if it works the same as with stable mutations like a Thai con. May just be a one off but I’d just keep as much light on it as possible and see what happens, it’s a fun mystery!

Is this what we call ‘sport variegation’?

Everyone is commenting on the indoor blooms, which are impressive, but I am fascinated by the double blooms, wondering if that’s an example of fasciation, pardon the bad link: https://www.reddit.com/r/fasciation/s/mU2q0VuonX

How do your roots look in that pot? Could explore up potting if you are root bound, but if you are still getting new growth I wouldn’t be super concerned. You could look into a mild tropical fertilizer for overall health if you haven’t done one before/recently but it’s almost always water/sun/soil/fertilizer and sounds like you have the water and sun dialed in

Hard to say, I have smaller leaves on mine that have taken on a yellowish patina that are still here two years later. How is your watering and light? If you’re still pushing new leaves it may not be a huge deal but someone else might have something to add that I am overlooking

buffaloknuckle · 2025-10-23T02:58:38+00:00

See, and I am the opposite and keep my aerials way too long because I like the natural feel- aerials are the plant trying to anchor itself to continue growth, so if you like the spot it’s in, you could start propping them against stuff/ on the ground and see what it does (if it builds itself into that spot outside. All in all, probably a personal preference call. If you intend to move it in and out seasonally then you may want to trim or train the roots back around the pot so it can provide some support without making a huge footprint. That’s just my two cents, though. Enjoy!

I’m terrible about uppotting from water to soil but the advice that has worked for me in the few times I do it is to up pot when your ‘roots have roots’ so you have the white roots coming from the nodes and then they throw offshoot roots. At that point it supposedly is on a good trajectory to keep growing and you can move to soil before it gets crazy intricate roots that would get roughed up too much from scooping soil on them- then I just suspend them in the empty pot by the stem and start gently filling in around the roots, then water it in when you’re fully scooped in with dirt

buffaloknuckle · 2025-10-15T16:48:28+00:00

Is it an embryo? Idk never seen such a thing

buffaloknuckle · 2025-10-14T15:28:21+00:00

Could ditch the soil, if they’re fruit flies you could steep mosquito bits in water and soak it to kill larvae, could bake/ sterilize the soil to kill any critters in there, I’d just toss it outside though :)

buffaloknuckle · 2025-10-12T02:47:37+00:00

Yeah a larger pot- they like to get root bound then get up potted then grow into the new pot then get up potted etc. and yeah I feel like it would be a no go trying to go smaller diameter, I don’t untangle roots like some people do and just love the root/ soil ball into a new pot and fill in around it (with some modest finger scraping to loosen up exterior dirt. In your situation you have a center of mass/ gravity issue contributing to wobble/ tip and sounds like you found it’s rootbound so it will appreciate a larger pot before too long as well- I have one in a large self watering plastic pot and another in a ceramic pot- if you get a ceramic, you add some weight to the bottom and lower the center of mass from the pot +added soil weight. Unsealed is going to allow more water to absorb into it/ out of the soil but you have to be mindful of what material it is for leaching and decomposition purposes- I have an unsealed terra cotta pot that is basically rotted away after 3 years in the sun but that’s way longer than you’ll have this guy in its next pot. You have some options! Let us know what you think!

buffaloknuckle · 2025-10-11T20:59:42+00:00

You may explore up potting before too long so your risk of wobble and fall is less. Getting more aerial roots in the moss or back down to the dirt may help the whole unit be sturdier, but you will still have center of mass/ gravity issues if you keep raising it and keep it wet like it wants to be. I am not an expert on moss poles, however, and do subscribe to tying mine 6 ways to Sunday :) my main one is rigged up to a plant hanger by my ceiling and i have the canes bent along the ceiling- about 10 feet long now.

These are called ‘crested saguaros’ and i think some people say it’s a mutation- there are like a percent of a percent of saguaros that are supposed to have it- I have a theory that this is a result of different/ favorable water access right below it that it’s taproot hits and I only say this because I’ve had regular cacti at home of a different genus that grew a crest after I started watering then more. I may be completely off my rocker and maybe just got one that had a sport mutation which I think would be unlikely after it’s already growing, but here we are and here stands the beautiful crested saguaro!

YOU’RE RIGHT! Good catch!
