How to make Monstera deliciosa grow out of its pot and grow big and thick

1. Soil foundation

If you want Monstera to grow out of the pot, you must ensure a good soil foundation and provide it with loose, fertile, slightly acidic soil. Suitable soil should meet the requirements of growth. Do not grow it in compacted, heavy, or poor soil. It is also necessary to change the pot in time, once every one or two years of cultivation, provide a flower pot suitable for growth, provide the space environment required for growth, and constantly provide new soil to promote growth.

2. Adequate astigmatism

Monstera is relatively shade-tolerant, but if you want to achieve full-scale growth, you must ensure that it has good light needs. It can be grown in a bright place at home, such as on the windowsill in the living room, and its light needs can be met by exposure to sunlight. In the hot summer, be careful to avoid direct sunlight, as direct exposure will damage the leaves.

3. Water in time

Monstera is native to tropical rainforests and prefers plenty of water, so watering is also very important and it is necessary to water it in time to meet its water needs. Generally, water the plant once every three or four days. In summer, when evaporation is high, water the plant once a day.

4. Reasonable topdressing

Some base fertilizer was applied when repotting. Fertilizer should be applied regularly during the later growth period, and every 15 days during the vigorous growth stage.

5. Reasonable pruning

In order to promote the growth of the plant, proper pruning is also necessary. The cut branches can be used for cuttings.
