How to grow Monstera

How to grow Monstera

1. Watering

If you want to grow Monstera well, the soil in the pot must be kept moist. If the weather is too dry, you can spray some water. When the temperature is low in winter, you should water it less. Just keep the soil slightly dry. In addition, wash the leaves with clean water on time. The adsorption of dust will affect photosynthesis and reduce the ornamental value.

2. Lighting

Monstera is relatively shade-tolerant, so do not keep it in a strong light environment for a long time. It can be exposed to scattered light appropriately. When there is strong light, it should be moved in time. In the summer when the temperature is high and the sun is strong, it should be properly shaded. It is best to grow it in a bright and ventilated environment.

3. Repotting

To help it grow better, you need to repot it once in the spring every year. Choose a suitable flowerpot, replace the culture soil with new one, and trim the excess roots appropriately. Before repotting, you can trim off the yellow leaves, dead leaves and diseased leaves. After repotting, place it in a warm and semi-shaded environment. No watering is needed. After adapting for a period of time, you can resume normal watering.

4. Pruning

Pruning can make Monstera grow better. Do not use scissors when pruning, because the wound will be extremely difficult to heal after using scissors. If you want it to grow taller, you can appropriately cut off the aging leaves; in order to reduce nutrient consumption, diseased leaves and yellow leaves should be pruned off in time.
