How to Successfully Root Variegated Monstera in Water

[@tanya.quintieri]

My set up is similar. Minus the heat mat and I add a couple of chunks of activated charcoal. It really helps with keeping the water clean and prevents rot.

[@ameliagraham92]

I love how you can teach this old gal new tricks...leave the plants out of the water and only root the aerial roots...ingenious! When I have tried to add rooting powder to water its been cloudy. I think I will try your brand. Thanks for this content. I am glad that you are you!

[@jessiekley]

I’ve done tons of research and this video is by far the most practical, informative and trustworthy!

[@NatkaAsh]

I've used your tips and wow. 3 weeks and my monstera is rooting as crazy. Thank you 🌱

[@KaelixValor]

I’m sure people cut them up into single pieces to maximize profit when selling. Your method is perfect and I agree with it completely!

[@tonygray9174]

Good point about the aerial roots. The outer layer is called Velamin which absorbs moisture in the air and benefits the development of soil roots.

[@MSUMaryMo]

Thank you for your videos!!! I have 3 albos and a Thai constellation rooting in your “recipe” and they are doing great. I’m so thankful I might be able to rescue plants I was afraid were goners. Thanks so much!!

[@KettiO]

You’re amazing and this was EXTREMELY helpful. You don’t have to take the time to do this, so I am grateful. Getting my first albo next week. It’s getting shipped to me. I just thank you for this.

[@basepaull]

So informational!! I wish I saw this before I tried to root my cutting! Thanks!

[@miriamm.8313]

Beautiful. Hope you share your potting process for these babies Thank u for this useful video 👍🏻

[@ThePlantsMeow]

Glad you said something - will do! 👌🏼💚

[@Mir.cvetov.]

good afternoon, thanks for the review, very interesting. how many beautiful plants, gorgeous monsters

[@meredithmay5394]

This video was so awesome and educational! Just ordered a cutting and I’m so excited!

[@mathildakd1]

You are a genius 🥹🙏I have an old huuuuge monstera i had since it was small. Now i want to start from scratch and use the now very mature top with several leaves. Very nice tips

[@sherryporsch9349]

Lots of great info. I learned that younger smaller stems root faster also. I found, if you have your cutting in a small container, in my case a mason jar, on top of a heat mat will cause your stem to rot. Not enough water an gets to hot. This was with Thai constellation not Albos. Hope to have an Albo someday. 😃 Excellent info💚

[@bartseller8601]

You can controll the heat temp on your matt by a controller.. fyi....

[@allisonfleming3390]

[@dulceportillo4061]

Just found your video is great. I been trying to root a one leave piece of a monstera, is been in water for a month already and no roots yet. What do you recommend, I don’t want to loose it thank you

[@Sparklepancharm]

I love plants . Thanks for sharing this vedio . Full support.

[@marygorchidsmore2058]

Great video, thanks for making this. I really enjoyed the video and learned a lot. Although I have only one m.thai constelation, but I'm think your video is a great reference for who ever wants to do the propagation. Thanks again and happy growing.

[@happymountaingirl6719]

I had this on in the background on repeat and then I was meowing to my cat when I heard a meow and then I went looking for my cat and it was the cat at the end of the video... 😅

[@sandraforas3962]

A little tip if you put the stem ends in melted candle wax it will stop the stems from Rotting in water

[@Swenhendriks]

Great video! Learned some very useful details.👌🏼🌱

[@mobiusprolix8454]

Hope all is well.

[@beautifulstems1631]

Hi ella when are you making more videos?

[@rmarvel169]

I was just thinking the same thing today, I hope all is ok with her 🙏🏻💞

[@florance17]

omg I think yours is the most beautiful intro i've ever seen!

[@valleechristine1740]

Bonjour. Plus de nouvelle vidéo de toi et c’est bien dommage. Tu es une jeune femme pétillante et généreuse. Il me tarde de voir la suite de ton travail autour de ta passion. À très vite ????? Christine

[@thebeauceronboys9397]

I love the glasses, beautiful 🥰

[@pjaneheil]

I love the glasses as well ❤

[@BrianRathMusic]

Great video. What would you recommend for a top cutting with no roots yet? I thought I was getting some rot so I cut my stem. Do i need to let it callous over b4 placing in water. I liked your suggestion about finding the right reservoir to prevent your stem from being submerged. I just don’t have any roots yet.

[@awisnoor]

Hey we miss u 🥺

[@ThePlantsMeow]

I will be back very soon! 🥰❤️

[@sebastianb.4164]

When? ❤️

[@MegaAguamarina]

I just found your channel and I think you are awesome. Thank you for your tips. 😃

[@MOJUSA]

That is good friend. i do that too in my Monstera. I like your collections friend

[@melissaocariz9702]

I ordered a cutting without an aerial root and it’s been 3 weeks in water without any change. Should I be worried??

[@jackieliu1232]

this is the most comprehensive guide to prop monstera! Thank you! Do you keep the grow light on 24/7?

[@LizMartinez-ir5zz]

I hope you doing well and hope to see new videos soon 💚💚

[@withwandy]

Do you mix rapid start and clear rez in the same gallon? Also Thank you for all info 💚

[@Kashmir209]

Do you callus your cutting after chopping your albo before rooting in water and if so how long?

[@Dieppaloveplants]

Thank you so much for this tip for rooting i have a monstera albo that im gifting away to my best friend she is coming in january to visit me and i want to give her one

[@ejquintanilla734]

What do you do if there’s no aerial roots? I have some cuttings but the aerial roots rotted… should I submerged the end of the stem into the water?

[@rmarvel169]

Hi, so what ended up happening with your cutting? I have a Thai constellation 1 leaf and the aerial root it had when I got it was no good so I trimmed it but have only an inch left. I've had it rooting in perlite and moss since 12-10 and all I see ONE tiny place where something is coming through but that's it

[@SydneyTravellersGuide]

great channel. Just subbed. Very informative!

[@aprilsweeney324]

My Albo will not root. I bought a cutting online and she already has a scabbed end. Should I cut that and try again? I ordered the rooting product you suggested.

[@noelle7714]

Very informative video!😊

[@bartseller8601]

I'm sure you might have this somewhere but proper soil for these guys?

[@cheyannkazemian2455]

Do you recommend waxing the bottom of the stem before placing into water? My area of cut will be submerged in water no matter what (I have a top cut)

[@plantsrforever4150]

Love the glasses girl 🤩💖

[@willieBB123]

[@nelmanas9041]

Hi , thanks for this very helpful information . I want to follow your way step by step .How do you use clearex?thanks!

[@pjaneheil]

Hi there! I have a question about Pon, will Pon have bugs in like potting soil?

[@weitong5507]

you alright? no new post lately

[@coolzpsx]

Did you make that moss pole with the black material in center, or did you buy it somewhere?

[@belizekaviar1263]

Hi nice information - video, u use very nice products, and good info how to DIY., My question : do you have a video, or gona make, I have searched in your video Playlist, to 1 specific video, how to step by step, and from preparing your, sterilize box, use your rapid grow, test PH and water condition, of your cuttings, and in wich dosage you told, only how to do, for example to show?... Maybe i have not good searched about your videos? Please tell me wich one, I have to chose about it? Or don't you really have one? It could be.. Please confirm thank you,

[@joshmandujano3774]

Great video!! I really appreciate you sharing what you’ve learned in your experience. I’ve got a question about how long you leave your grow lights on for? I’ve got my cutting on 12 hrs a day right now, but thinking I should bump it up to 16 or 18 hrs to help it along. It doesn’t get much natural light.

[@MSUMaryMo]

I’m not the OP, but I leave mine on for 16 hrs a day. I’m curious to see what the OP does also. I’ve noticed a LOT of my root growth happens at night when lights are out. Really fascinating how fast they can grow overnight.

[@adrianpoe4416]

I’d love to hear foot candle measurements for your albos. I have a foot candle light meter am worried but just bought my first MASSIVE Albo and terrified to burn her. I have floor to ceiling windows and the light can get strong, 1800FC+ and at a 8ft distance goes down to 1300fc. Need advice!

[@misslydiadoll]

How much hydrogen peroxide would you recommend instead of the clear rez?

[@DorothyNelson312]

How much hydrogen peroxide do you recommend if we are to use that instead?

[@belizekaviar1263]

Do you test your water? I use 6-1 combo test for aquarium water? I use also use it to test the PH level How many peroxide 3%, u use at the water? Per liter /gallon?

[@WoodlandT]

What is that gorgeous corrugated looking anthurium(?) behind you?

[@catarinaanjos7603]

Anthurium luxurians, I believe.

[@kourtneys.plant.korner765]

Would a fish tank heater work instead of a heat mat?

[@ameliagraham92]

I am not Ella but I would think you would need a really deep container or a small heater.

[@shertywerty]

Thank you so much for these helpful tips! Now I understand why my single leaf cuttings were so prone to root rot 🥲

[@kendravoracek3636]
