Cut and care for Monstera offshoots - this is how it works
To increase your window leaf by means of offshoots, there are two options to choose from. The exotic plant gives you both head and stem cuttings that turn into a magnificent monster in no time. This manual explains both methods in a practical and comprehensible way.
Cut headstock and root - that's how it works
In order for a head cradle to actually take root, an important detail is important in the cut. The following step-by-step instructions explain what you should focus on in this variant of vegetative propagation:
Place the cuttings complete with aerial root in a large potting pot filled with peat sand or coconut fiber substrate. Erected on the partially shaded, warm window seat, keep the potting soil slightly moist with lime-free water. They give the rooting additional momentum, while maintaining the cutting during this time under a transparent hood. Well suited is a plastic bag, which is kept away from the leaves by wooden sticks as a spacer.
Cutting and rooted trunk cuttings - How to do it right
If a leafless shoot axis remains after the cut of a head plug, this part can also be used as a cutting on the window leaf. A vital trunk is not yet lignified and has several dormant leaf buds, which can be recognized as vegetation points on the stem axis. How to proceed with the offshoot expertly:
Like a head plug, activate rooting and expulsion with a translucent cover. Underneath, a moist, warm microclimate develops that knows how to appreciate your window leaf and, accordingly, gives you trouble with its growth. So that no mold forms, the hood should be ventilated daily.
A trunk cuttings make a flock of young Monstera
To get several seedlings from a single trunk you can cut it between your sleeping eyes. Place each stem segment horizontally with the leaf bud on the top of the seedling. Roots and leaves form out of the vegetation point, with a moist, warm microclimate again being advantageous. Then you putt the young window leaf and maintain it like an adult plant.
Tips
Air roots do not have what it takes to cut. They are responsible for the important task of providing care and detention. If the window leaf has a stable climbing aid with a rough surface, the exotic plant climbs to desired heights in airy heights up to the ceiling.
