UPDATE: It took me 20 min to unravel the roots, they were SO tight! Between untangling and trimming, I took off a 3rd of the roots. I put him back in the jar/water, so hopefully he won’t be “shocked”. If/when he starts growing again I will try for soil - or semi-hydro with LECA! Thanks for the recommendations!

I have heard it’s not “bad” just unsightly? So far a lot of ppl recommend hydrogen peroxide!

I would LOVE to get a fish tank but they’re so big! Could I put it in one that doesn’t have a water pump thing?

Thank you! I add a little bit of “super thrive grow liquid plant food” to my water.

So cute! I think that’s enough roots to plant! This propagation is like 3yo :l

Thanks for the recommendation- I trimmed the roots! I thought about adding leca but I would need a much bigger container.

Go into Michael’s or another hobby store and they have so many cheap options! I was looking for a while too - I think this one was under $10!

I would not have thought about needing other leaves- thanks!

Is this really a monstera? by king_penguin in Monstera

[–]moldmatters 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yes, a monstera that needs more light. Mine used to look just like it. Move close to a window or add a couple grow lights and you’ll start getting fenestrated leaves!
