- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- Rooting and propagating monstera and philodendron can be as fulfilling as it is challenging. In this 3 part series, I review all my thoughts and tips regarding the process. I discuss frequent questions I get asked as well as considerations I rarely see mentioned. We go from several cuttings propagating in water to its transition to spagnum moss or a perlite-heavy aroid mix, and then see what to do when the cutting matures.

Thank you soo much for these episodes, I appreciate the time you took to go into so many details for us💚
You have the best plants I've ever seen .... I would sell my soul for that cutting
Great examples of stem variegation and leaf result! This info applies to so many variegated plants...very useful! Thank you! 🌿✌🌿
Your videos are so helpful! I've been growing albos for about a couple of years now and at first I've lost a few of the cuttings since I treat them as regular monsteras. 😑😑😑 thank goodness they are my own cuttings and not something I purchased. Still, it makes me sad that I lost a few.
Back then, I used to hover over my cuttings and used rooting hormones, cinnamon powder, organic plant supplements, all the works.
I got scared propagating them again because of all the stress I was in. But now I've seen your in depth video, I'm getting confident again. Thanks again!
Thanks for following along 🤗🤗
Thank you for this! I always cringe when I see those tiny one node cuttings, it's a recipe for disaster. It's do-able, but the risk is SO high, it's not worth it.
I got an albo cutting with a big nice leaf and one node from a friend. I only put the aerial roots into water. The stem is mostly out and no rot after 1 month and a bud is coming! I am very positive. Maybe if you put the aerial roots with water roots into a small cup of water when you cut the rotten part and leave it out overnight, you would not lose the roots.
Someone suggested having some moss over the good roots during the air drying. I think that’s a super idea!
i use wax to seal it. and never seen root once i done that. would recomend. to use hard wax. and seal the end
@@Dianagarciax if it's calloused ? maybe you don't need to, but there's no issue i think with whether it's in the mail or not, i think the difference is the stem may already be hard, vs straight away waxing it?
Yes! I needed this yesterday!✊
Yeah I don’t know if you know this but every node cutting Going for 100+ but you are right if you’re going to spend that kind of money you should get a bigger plan for your money a bigger cutting I mean I love your videos your input on taking care of plants you’re awesome
Yeah plants have reached insane prices.
Thank you for the tremendous informations. I just learned the concept of substitution in different potting mix. Aloha
Such well explained video on root propagation! You’ve covered all necessary points so well and has given me a better understanding of root rot and how to transition newly rooted stems to potting mix!
Lovely video. You explained everything in detail. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
When you said "for funzies" at 19 min, I died😅🙈
I binged watched your videos, became part of albo groups before getting my cutting exactly a week ago. I have been water propagating and have no signs of root rot. My root size has quadrupled in size and the growth point is getting bigger and bigger each day! Thank you for all your videos :)
Yay! Congrats!
Love this series !
You could dip the end in candle wax before putting in water
Great info. I agree! Perlite is my friend.
These propagation videos have really helped. Thank you! Got any more progress updates on these ? Haha I cannot get enough!
Haha I think most of these have gone to new homes. Glad they were helpful! Happy holidays!
I just bought a cutting of verrucosum and Mamei, it was a single node but alreadu has some healthy roots, so i use spagnum moss, I hope it works.
It's funny how every plant works, I had singonium cuttings for two months in water and they weren't developing roots, then I put it in soil and within two weeks it put out new leafes
I also have a philodendron Guaimbê cutting in water for two months and so far no roots, I'm thinking of putting it in soil, but since I like it so much, I'm afraid of losing it
Did you water after potting it ? I’m having the same problem, thank you
@@Mydooobiee When it was a full plant I overwatered, with fresh potted cuttings what I like to do is keep the soil pretty wet for the first week, and then I water only when necessary
@@leonardomendes9945 thanks for the tips!
Where did you go friend? You haven't released a new video in a very long time😊hope you're doing good!
The pot that had the green and white plant. It is under a grow light? I have something very similar but I have it in a plastic ziplock bag under growlight. It’s still in moss but it has its first leaf? Is it time to put in soil an and just under a grow light?
I put about 1 oz of hydrogen peroxide to 8 oz water when water propagating
So today as of writing this message buying a cutting the size of the ones you keep showing are easily $800-$2000 easily. So for those of us trying our hand at it that can not afford it, what do you feel is the safest way? Just keep Arial roots in water if it has one lol. So many questions and not enough science for me to feel safe growing 1 node with dead leaves. It is such a scary situation 😫 😳
Another great video my friend . The node with all the drying maybe using a cloning paste will help . I've used the paste on a similar specimen , although not Monstera but Philodendron and it worked well . be well and stay safe .
So you don’t recommend cutting all green leaves off an albo to encourage variegation? Every site I’ve researched said more light = more variegation…
that's the problem with one I have. It was broken off my main plant by my dog and really close to the node. It's just starting to root and I'm praying it doesn't get any rot in it as because where it was broken the node is right on the very end so there's nothing left to work with if the end gets any rot in it. So far it hasn't but and hoping it won't because I'll likely lose the entire cutting if it does as the broken bit has only one node. It's looking good at the moment though and the root is now growing well now it's started to root
Yeah, when you're close to the node, you really have to hope everything goes well! Good luck!
Hey, if you dont have any growth from your node with the white leaves, throw some keiki paste on it and you might have some luck...
I use a single edge razor blade to cut my stems .
hi! not sure if this is explained later in the video, but i’d be curious to see the method/what part of the plant you put in the moss? is it only the root? or is it the root and part of the stem? thank you! your videos are so helpful!
Great video, but I am a bit confused about the point on the node where Monstera new growth occurs. From my understanding budding can only emerge from the plant's axillary bud. Please correct me if I'm wrong! Thanks.
hi. recently, I purchased a stem with 1 node for 5,700 pesos/100dollars. I propagate my monstera albo to aroid mix. it has roots, healthy leaf but Im still waiting for a sign of life. I purched that 5days ago. Im just worried that maybe it has root rot . Can you give me an advice like how long I need to wait to see if its already established or not. or can I just transfer it to water so I can see the incoming roots? thanks.
I have burnt the 1 leaf on my Variegated Monstera 1 node cutting. The stem is also a bit burnt. Any advice on how I should proceed will be welcome 😓😭 The stem is also a bit burnt. Would you advise I cut off the leaf... there is still part of the leaf that is not burnt with some green still left.
so informative!
What do you think about this mix. 1 part sand 1part ocean forest potting mix 1 part peat moss 1 part moss in a Terra cotta pot.
Does having very high humidity help root faster? Like a heated prop box with decent lighting kept around 90% humidity?
I guess I don’t understand why you keep mentioning the bud growth origin as being seemingly unknown. Like I’d just some spontaneous spot on the stem near the node. You can always see the axillary bud just above every node. Then based on the variegation, or lack there of, that crosses that bud... you can get a basic idea on what the new growth may look like.
Question
Why my leaves curl inward. When I took it from water to soil. Been like this for Month now. What going on with plant
if one were to brush the area of a stem with wet root hormone, would that encourage a bud in that area?
Why not the Keiki paste hormone instead if you want a bud, I saw on facebook someone use Keiki paste hormone for orchid on a variegated monstera with success.

@@ahan9719 I saw a picture of an obliqua with a ton of buds under white paste and wondered what it could be
It must have been Keiki
I don't use Keiki paste, but mostly out of laziness. I haven't been convinced that it works as well as some people think. But it's worth a shot if you want.
Hi I'd disagree with him saying in the video that it's luck where the bud on the stem forms. There's a part of a plant node call growing eye or dormant eye from which the bud will form, eyes in plant anatomy would be like undeveloped buds and it's not places like the usual axillary bud but rather on the side of the leaf, if u have a monstera home take a look and u will see it probably :)
how often or much water does the node in soil need? shouldn't be dry but shouldn't be wet either right?
When you propagate Monstera's and make the transition from water to soil roots, do you think Springtails would be beneficial to the transition process? They should eat away mold or rotten plant-Material and so (maybe) lower the risk of root rot? Do you know if that's the case? I usually use springtails for my small terrarium builds and they help alot in a plant-friendly environment.
I believe so! I use them in my terrarium
Thanks you for this informative video 👍
Recently a few of my leaves are growing out and quickly turning brown within all over the leaves as though it’s rusting? It is not just dried brown on the edges. Does anyone know why my new growth leaves are browning while the older leaves are ok? The stem are healthy and it’s not wilted or droopy and not dehydrated? Please help as I’m at my wits end and it’s certainly not a good sight for sore eyes? Thanks in advance! X
What if u get one node short node with 2 leaves what’s the best way to root that it’s a ppp
just wondering would a increase in humidity and temperature would potentially speed up the rooting process ? I have a stem just like yours probably a bit shorter but I can see a healthy growth point but it is growing very slow as it is below 20 Celcius and low humidity in Sydney now. Do you think it would help if I put the stem in a Green house ?
i found some monstera in my uncles lot today. i bought some at home. what should i do with the roots that i cut?
Hi! Great info. I have a monstera albo node or wet stick, with one large aerial root and a node. A good size, about 3-4 inches, and the seller was recommended. No rot thank God!! But it's been sitting in a plastic container in moss for two months with nothing. No roots, nothing. Any suggestions?? change to terra cotta? Lay on its side instead of sticking the root in the moss? Use rooting hormone? I'm getting so confused LOL I am following the directions that came with it but.........nothing for two months...Thanks so much!
I got a cutting of a green stem & leaves from a variegated Monstera adonsonii. What are the chances that this will revert back to being variegated? Is it possible? If so, what should I prioritize in terms of care (ie. humidity, light, water, etc)?
I bought a cutting with very very little white, the stem was 98% green, and the butt came out 50/50 white/green, i guess i got lucky
I love your video and I need your advise.
I got my first monstera albo cutting and I use water to propagate. It had a new grow but it turned black and some mushy thing on it. Now the new grow is completely gone…. I just clean it and removed those mushy black thing on it gently. The node still firm. So I transferred it to sphagnum moss. Am I do it correct? And will the new grow come back ? There is only 1 node. 😞
Jimmy, I have a question. I have a verigated monstera albo cutting which had a baby leaf and 2 aireal roots. I have it in water and the leaf is doing great, and growing fast. However, water roots are not forming. I've had it about 2 mo. Do u think it's just putting energy into the leaf right now?
Too late for me to see this. I saw a different video where after the roots grew out from water propagation then transferred to soil. Checked today after one stem was wilting sure enough it rotted no roots left(like legit nothing). My question could it still be saved?
Aw sorry to hear. Hard to comment specifically without seeing your specimen. Not sure if it can be saved but no harm in trying. Good luck!!
would you recommend moss and high humidity for a node cutting with absolutely no roots but has a bud starting to come out?
I don't think the bud affects how I would go forward with it. I think most people will recommend moss or perlite and high humidity.
My cutting’s root are very dark and crispy. They are about 1” long and fell off. Is this a bad thing?
I have a question; I am going to get a node like this with one arial root. I am planning on moss propagating. Wondering if I let the stick stand like what you have or lie down?
Anyway works. Just orient it in a way that is stable and the root going toward the substrate and you should be fine. The new buds will figure it out and grow in the right direction.
Is it possible to do an update on that little green (possible reverted) albo?
HELP IF YOU'RE SSEEING THIS,
My monstera Albo is now rootless because of root rot, how can I save it???😭😭 Please help me
Can you update us on what happened to the green one and the all white?
Have you tried sealing the ends with wax to prevent rot?
it seems evident to me from this video and others that a monstera cut with a leaf with a stem this close to the node like in the video, and a barely there aerial root.. would not do well in water? because I was sold one like that and told it was rooted, and told to put it in water, to later find a rotten stem and find out that this isn't the way it's really meant to be sold, esp for the price it was sold at.
keen to know if it popped out another bud!
Haha this plant has already been sold but it’s doing well last time I checked.
What are your thoughts on putting coconut oil at the ends to prevent root rot. I am thinking about the way that bonsai masters put wax when they make a cut to avoid disease.
Hm haven’t heard of coconut oil before. Unsure what it would do. Wax in theory creates a waterproof barrier. I think it’s effective but I haven’t used it.
@@LegendsOfMonstera if you use wax as a water barrier, how does the plant gets water if the canals are all blocked by the wax?
What do you think about foilar fertilizer? If cutting cannot get minerals from water, maybe this would work :)? Thanks for your movies
If a growth point gets damaged will it grow from somewhere else
So i just need to put it ON top of perlite?
I would not put it in teracota pot, but plastic one to save the moisture
People who live in dryer environments have a really hard time with terra because it can dry out too fast. In my environment, plastic saves too much moisture and causes me problems. Cheers!
would you use a rooting solution on these
Hi !
Thank you so much for your videos, it's soo helping :)
Can you keep us posted about the all white albo you cut in this video? Do you have a new growth on it? :D
Haha, I will try to do some update videos, but usually I let them go to homes locally when they are ready.
Just want to touch on when you were saying root rot and cutting more and more of the stem. Did you mean stem rot? :)
Haha yeah, stem rot would probably be the more accurate term lol ^_^
as a owner of more common but just as beautiful monsteras & philodendrons I learned so much with this series; by the way, in your Caltropics you mentioned that you didn’t care too much about the philodendron pink princess and so you didn’t have one in your collection, did you change your mind about this plant? are there other plants you didn’t care for at first but ended up acquiring after seeing in person? this could actually be a great topic for your next video. Thanks 😊
Haha as much as I admire the occasional pink princess, it doesn't speak to me enough for me to add one to my collection. Hm, I think the only plant that has changed my mind after seeing it in real life has been the philodendron spiritus sancti.
Watching this after i bought a node😢
What if you were to slightly damage the part of stem that has the most white to reduce the Chances of a bud in that spot? Maybe not with the cutting you have there (doesn't look like it can afford it) but with a larger piece that has more room for error?
Hm... that's a very interesting out-of-the-box thought!! I think with stem cuttings, I'd rather let things grow and cut back, instead of preventing any growth to start off. A leafless stem needs all the help it can get, and minor injuries isn't going to do it any favors. Your idea is super intriguing though!! Hopefully I'll find someone who has tried it. Cheers!
first of all i LOVE your videos!!!!
i wanted to ask you wich way is the most safe and succesful way to propagatethe monstera albo water or moss or maybe a mixture of leca and moss
cuz i just got one cutting (HERE IN ITALY THERE SOOOOO EXPENSIVE )pls help me:)
Hi did you get it to propagate in moss ?
I’ve heard of people using cinnamon and wax on the ends of their cuttings to prevent rot. Has anyone had experiences with this? I’m thinking of trying it on my next cutting
Yep perfect for sealing off cuts and wounds and infections since cinnamon is anti fungal and anti bacterial
I wish I saw your video before buying a cutting. I have a high risk cutting with little room to work with. Once I develop a good soil root system, would it be okay to pot the stem into an aroid mix? I am afraid of stem rot. Should I cover it in wax before putting in aroid mix? I currently have it in water where the stem is in air and aerial roots is in water.
Definitely can Tim! Good luck man!
I'm kind of bummed, because my second cutting was heavily variegated and a new bud came off a spot of heavy variegation, but looks almost all white 🤣 I guess I will wait and see what it does. But I wonder why it tapped off of lots of green but still came off white. Maybe it stemmed from the center where you can't see and that portion of the stem is white? I'll never know until I let it grow.
I’ve always been told to cut them off when they grow out either all white or all green. *allegedly* it will encourage the other leaves to follow suit.
Thank you for the great videos and very helpful content. I purchased a stem which was prop horizontally in water but rotted when it arrived to me. Took it out and cut the rot and propagated horizontally in 3:1 perlite-soil mixture. The roots that were coming out all dried out as I let it callous. How often do you water the perlite mix? The top portion feels dry after 2 days. Placed it in a terra cotta pot and the pot is wet but the top later of the mix is dry. I wonder if the pot is wicking away moisture from the perlite mix. Also, there was a nub/growth point coming out. Will the growth stop because all the water roots dried up? Thank you!
Really hard to tell you how often to water because it depends on your environment. How hot is it, and how humid, and how much air circulation, and what is your pot type and size? All those factors affect watering frequency so you have to figure out what works for you.
@@LegendsOfMonstera happy to update that the growth nub is growing taller everyday! thank you again!
I got a monstera that had root rot when it arrived. I cut off the dying roots that had decay, washed them, dried them overnight, then put it in water! What do you think about putting it in leca? I'm worried about puttting it in soil again. I'm also worried the roots I salvaged are going to die in the water. I don't know. I'm new to this. Any thoughts?
Lots of people report much success with leca. I haven little experience but I think it's worth a try if you want. I'm quite minimal so I only use soil, moss, and perlite.
would sealing the end in wax help at all? I agree Cry once and get a larger cutting vs. a nub of a node.
I seel with wax and not have any root rot 😱 but getting the wax on the stem is tricky because just dunking it in wax did not work I had to pour bees wax over the stem end 😱
The theory behind sealing with wax is that it creates a waterproof layer that helps prevent rot or further rot. I don't wax but I don't think there's much harm in doing it. Probably some benefit but not sure.
@@mutantmonkey2301 how does the plant will get water supply if the canals are all blocked by the way?
Would you think that the transition stage with high perlite/moss is good for no aroids too? Missing this step would definitely account for the problems I've had with my aroids in the past haha...
Hm the reason that the perlite/moss transition helps aroids is because of the high risk for root rot. Most common houseplants seem to tolerate damper environments better, so I think for them it's better to just transition to a soil mix to reduce the amount of time the roots are disturbed. That's just my thoughts but I can't say I have much experience outside of aroids.
I think I would of let grow a while an see if it will green up some as it grows. Idk like you said, between a rock an rock. 😀
isnt all the root rot and lost nodes because of water propagation?
hey thank you for all the advice , i been looking for a monstera albo bout they are very difficult to find , can u recommend me someone that they sell monstera albo
i will really appreciate thank you
I released an episode about buying plants on facebook and shared my favorite US facebook sellers. If you are in the US, all of them should have some albos for sale.
@@LegendsOfMonstera thank you i really appreciate the information 🙂👍👍👍👍👍👍
@@LegendsOfMonstera I don't have Facebook account. Do you know any other way to contact someone interested in selling a cutting?
Please help! I received an albo syngonium in the mail a couple of weeks ago. It was in soil wrapped in plastic, had an aerial root, little roots and a couple of nice leaves. It was ok!! I planted it and I think I might have over watered, leaves died. I now have a node with the roots, no leaves. WHAT can I do with it? keep it moist? dry? moss? perlite? I've been gardening a long time but this area is new to me and there is so much confusion out there!! thanks ahead of time!!.not rot either, thank goodness!
I would repot in dryer soil, after a day I would water lightly enough to wet the roots but not the entire pot. Keep doing it for a few weeks or until growth starts again. I would also add a little plant food and place near bright light but not direct.
@@RickieVz1 Thank you!
Do you sell cuttings?
Gif it lots of light and humidity and it should be absolutely fine.
I don't believe that light and humidity is the answer to everything. If anything, temperature should be mentioned.
That is a great point! Temperature is something you don't directly think about but it is indeed something that is interesting to look at and play around with. I keep the temperature in the "plant ICU" in my little green house at around 25°C or 77°F which seems to be helpful (nice and cozy but not to hot). But especially for leave less cuttings in my experience light and humidity can be helpful. Some extra light, in my experience, can promote growth in leave less cuttings that are slow to grow. Humidity (cycling between 70-99%) can be helpfull in three ways. It slow the deturiation from possible dehydration, it promotes growth and it helps to control the level of moisture in the moss or perlite or soil. It is easyer to keep the growing medium slightly moist but and never making it wet. This reduces the rootrot and in my experience it seems to promote root growth.
But of course alot of variables are of influence. With the high humidity there is also a need for good air circulation. And every plant is different so at the end we can only try. 😁
I thought you are supposed to change the water every day with water propagation? (With other plants at least)
You can if you want to. I change it once a week, sometimes once every 2 weeks.
Hi Jimmy,
What if the roots rot off the node but the node is still healthy? I have been trying to root a Jose Bueno cutting for a month now. No roots at all but its growing a new leaf🤷♀️. I am so confused by this plant. I just want roots!
Sometimes when the root rots off the node, some area of the node is also rotted underneath. Either way not much you can do. Just keep waiting and crossing your fingers!
@@LegendsOfMonstera Thank you for the response :) I appreciate your informative videos and love your channel!
White looks so much better thob
✨🌸 THANK YOU 🌸✨
Wish we were mates and I could come over and get cuttings 😂
Anyone here have any luck rooting a Gloriosum chonk? Tell me your secrets!
If it has roots only, I tend to go into moss when I’m not lazy haha
My life in the tropics, put the chunk in a clear plastic box with spag moss in bottom an laid the chunk on top an misted the moss, closed the lid an put it in a bright area. They grew roots an leaves. Good luck 😀
I put some in a Tupperware container with moss and forgot about it. They didn’t do much over the winter, but since spring has come they have been putting out new growth.
„It is about luck and the stem”
Hey Jimmy, I really really love all of your videos! Keep the great content 💪🏻
I’ve got a question (I hope you see my comment and that you can answer it perhaps?)
So I’ve got a variegated monstera (albo)
and over time he became more and more green :/
Do you think that if I cut it into pieces that the leaves will come out more white again? (Through new buds?)
The stem is 99% green but maybe there are some genes 🧬 left deep inside it?
Greetings from Germany 👋🏻
Hi. I think if your plant is basically all green now, it's worth a shot. For albos, their variegation seems very dependent on the variegation of the stem (Thai constellations seem less so and are more "some genes left deep inside"). If you have nothing to lose, why not right?
Thanks so much for your videos! I recently got an albo variegata and I'm glad I've been patiently letting it grow its roots in water. On the other hand, I was given a "rooted monstera cutting" which did have one long happy yellow white root that I planted into an airy aroid soil mix, and I'm now a little worried that I jumped the gun by not letting its roots develop some more.
Do you have any advice for things to look out above the soil, in case I did indeed pot it too soon?
Hm, unfortunately the signs of root rot above soil is non-specific. If you are putting in soil without many roots, I would suggest at least 70-80% perlite in your mix. You can always take it out and put it back in water if you are worried.
@@LegendsOfMonstera I'll try that, thank you! :)
Sound seems a bit off in these.
Yeah 😅. I didn’t realize how different the sound would be in the different clips till after it was all over.
Can i have 1?😢
$50? I see the tiny nodes for like $150+
🌹💕🍀🌴💚🕊
you talk too much mate. Need to learn to go direct to the point!
Too long TBH
