Here’s One Brilliant Monstera Growing Super Hack You Should Try if you want quick growth and a healthy plant. It will surely surprise you!
If you want to grow a lush and green monstera and multiply its leaves, then here’s this One Brilliant Monstera Growing Hack you should definitely try!
It’s Truly Tropical
Monstera is one of the most popular and loved tropical houseplants. Its large leaves have ‘eyes’ or ‘holes,’ which gives it a unique appearance. If you want to add a plant to your collection that looks so exotic and is a joy to maintain, then this is it!
While growing indoors, the plant grows up to 1-2 feet a year. It prefers bright indirect sunlight to partial shade and peat-based, well-draining potting soil.
This Monstera Growing Hack Will Miraculously Boost its Growth
To do this monstera trick, the first thing you need to do is to look for one or two large aerial roots located near the bottom of the stem. Once you get hold of it, follow the below process:
- Get a small glass or bowl and put it over the topsoil of the container near the base of your plant.
- Fill it with RO or rainwater (it will be best) and place the largest aerial roots (one or two) in it while they are still attached to the plant.
- Doing this will help the plant transport more water through its aerial roots.
How Does it Make Monstera Lush and Grow More?
As aerial roots naturally search their way into nearby water sources for moisture and nutrients in the forest places where monstera plants are native of–this trick will definitely help your houseplant similarly and encourage it to grow more leaves and show lush growth.
However, you need to be careful and not keep the aerial roots submerged in the water forever, as it will result in rot.
- The best way to do this is to dip the root in the bowl for 2-3 hours and then take it out.
- To make it more potent, you can add 2-3 drops of liquid fertilizer to the bowl of water or you use diluted aquarium water, too.
- Do this trick once a week but increase the frequency to twice when the air is dry and you notice dehydration in your plant.
- Always change and use fresh water!
