Replying to @judithjohnson_ 🌱Growing Monsteras in Leca and Water Looking for a low-maintenance approach to nurturing your Monstera? Look no further than the fantastic world of Leca and water propagation! 🌿 Say goodbye to worries about root rot and pests—this method keeps your Monstera thriving with ease. No need to fret when you’re away from home, as it can survive longer periods without constant care. The convenience is undeniable. However, it’s important to note that when it comes to those iconic fenestrated leaves, it might take a bit more patience. Without the support of soil, getting that massive growth with a moss pole can be a tad trickier. But hey, every lush leaf is a victory, right? 🌱 🏡 Thriving Monstera in Soil: The Trade-offs 🌱 For those who enjoy getting their hands in the dirt, growing a Monstera in soil offers its own set of rewards and challenges. The upsides? The potential for massive, fenestrated leaves climbing up a moss pole, creating a striking display of greenery. Yet, let’s be real—houseplant pests and worrying about root root and root-bound issues can dampen the joy. Repotting can feel like a chore, but the flourishing Monstera is definitely worth it. Remember, it’s all about that balanced relationship with nature. 🪴 🌍 Best of Both Worlds: Embrace the Versatility 🌿 Guess what? You don’t have to choose just one method for your beloved Monstera. Enjoy the beauty of a large, thriving Monstera in soil, reaping the benefits of lush growth and those stunning fenestrated leaves climbing high on a moss pole. And here’s the twist: take cuttings from your flourishing plant and try out the Leca and water propagation. Enjoy the convenience of easy care while delighting in the sight of new roots forming. It’s like having your cake and eating it too, with a side of verdant leaves and tropical charm. 🌱🪴✨ #houseplants #plantlover #plantaholic #monstera #monsteradeliciosa #houseplanttips #hydroponicsbeginner #semihydroponics #leca #fenestrations #doublefenestration #waterpropagation #hydroponics
