โ๏ธ๐ฑ Watering and light conditions โ the most important thing to know!
๐ Light:
Monstera likes bright, filtered light. It will thrive near a bright window โ but not in direct sunlight, which can burn the leaves.
๐ Recommendation: Place the monstera near a southeast window with a transparent curtain to filter the light.
๐ง Irrigation according to the seasons:
-
Fall (SeptemberโNovember): Moderate watering โ wait for the topsoil to dry and water accordingly, usually once a week.
-
Winter (DecemberโFebruary): Slow down significantly โ watering once every two weeks or less, depending on the temperature and humidity in the house.
-
Spring (MarchโMay): Start increasing watering โ usually twice a week, as temperatures rise and growth resumes.
-
Summer (JuneโAugust): Regular watering โ usually twice a week, depending on the level of light, heat, and ventilation.
๐งช Always check with a finger or moisture meter before watering. Overwatering is a common problem with Monstera and can cause root rot.
๐ชด How do you take care of Monstera on a daily basis?
โ๏ธ Leaf cleaning: Once every two weeks, gently wipe the leaves with a damp cloth โ this will remove dust and help the plant absorb light efficiently.
๐ฟ Fertilization: Fertilize the plant once every two weeks in spring and summer using fertilizer for green leafy plants.
๐ชด Transfer to a larger pot: Every year or two, when the roots emerge from the bottom or when the leaves lose vitality - it's time to move to a larger container.
