Getting Back Variegation! REVERTED Yellow Monstera ‘aurea’ | Propagation - WITH SATISFYING UPDATES!

[@SherlynChow]

I miss these videos! The garden/nursery tours were great but I really enjoy watching your plant care/update videos and I’m so glad you uploaded this!

[@onlyplants]

Thank you. More to come!

[@leahnelson771]

I love that you give honest updates.

[@onlyplants]

I feel embarassed by my recent updates haha. I promise to be home more often!

[@brocktoon8]

I love your home updates videos, I'd love to see ones of you clipping back, cleaning up, and generally caring for all your houseplants. Loved your styling, purging, and pruning ones! :D

[@onlyplants]

Thank youu. More to come 😀

I love these tutorials of you at home. Your videos of various gardens have been amazing but I’ve missed your home vids ❤

[@onlyplants]

Thank you. More to come!

[@variegated_stingray]

Awesome video!! Love those videos from your home by far the most. One thing I've experienced myself is that Monsteras hate to be propagated by sticking "old" aerial roots into soil. Never had success trying to do that. Water or moss all the way.

[@onlyplants]

Good to know! I think water propagation seem to be the proven method!

[@stephducated18g]

Love these kind of videos. Back to the basics. Thank you.

[@onlyplants]

Thank you. More to come! My travels have slowed down a lot

Thank you for this video. I may be cutting my Monstera Albo for the first time. 😊

[@onlyplants]

Ooh its always fun. For first timers I recommend water propagation.

[@carolstuff]

Thanks for props with updates Sean!

[@onlyplants]

Yaye, my pleasure

[@Wolverinedura]

My favourite one is the variegated plant episode. hi, Shaun, you should have a leaf that is half cut on the wall..is there any update in your last propagation video of billietiea. Thank you.

[@onlyplants]

The billietiae part 2 is half way done filming. Its 6 months update so far but I might wait for 2-3 more months

[@inos3697]

Such a good video. Sean, can I cut the aerial roots without hurting the plant? I have a monstera that the aerial roots are hitting my cement patio floor.

[@onlyplants]

Yesss, I cut most of these aerial roots in the video to a manageable length. Be sure to sterilize though. I use activated charcoal powder.

[@MyLocsMyPlants]

yay love when you do these vids ! so informative! thanks 😊

[@onlyplants]

Yaye ❤️

[@teachandplant]

I just recently asked the store if they still had the general potting mix and they said no 😢 but I understand your point. Hope your current businesses go well!

[@onlyplants]

Thank youu. I was glad to let it go because it was weight on my shoulders.

[@xx9969]

wait… did I miss this? (“I’m feeling greedy today “😈-onlySean) Hi Sean, im not on your patreon but I show my support by watching your videos from start to end, and I never ever skip ads… I promise 😉

[@onlyplants]

Ohhh yes it really helps when you stick around and view my videos. Thank youuu. Leave some thumbs ups too if you have a moment!

[@chemerxx]

Love such prop videos! Does this mean its a myth that the growing eye placement determines the variegation? Since those were in the "no" pile but produced beautiful leaves 🤔

[@onlyplants]

In my experience, the “yes” pile would have produced good variegation with a much higher possibility (but they died unfortunately). In the “no” pile there were a few maybes, because it was impossible to tell as the growing eye was covered. However, an all green growing eye from a variegated stem could still produce variegation but at a much lower possibility.

[@Lyssa72]

What N P K numbers do you recommend? I have 2 different fertilizers - one is N9 P3 K6 and the other is N7 P9 K5 so, I am wondering if I should get another for these plants which I do not mind to get. I have 2 Aurea’s that I started from wet sticks that I received in early January and they have grown painfully slow however, recently they have taken off growing and I’m so happy. So far they both have good variegation. I’m getting ready to repot and add a moss pole and after watching this, I want to make sure I have the right fertilizer.

[@onlyplants]

I would find a balanced one with equal amount of each.

Hi Sean (did I spell it right?) The production company I'm involved in is currently pitching and is asking if you would be interested in hosting a plant-related show in Taiwan? How do I message you privately?

[@onlyplants]

Hey there, I am @bo.tan.ist on instagram. Its best to DM me there. And yes you got Sean right! 😀

[@fitztastico]

Question: I have a 'Black Varnish' Pseuderanthemum plant that developed a variegated sport last year. It grew 4 sets of leaves with reducing variegation (50%, then 75% & 25%, etc) before returning to normal. I cut the branch after that node to encourage branching, but unfortunately the main leaves eventually dropped and it has stayed a bare branch, even when I have trimmed the rest of the plant to try and get growth into that branch. My question (after my long winded introduction) is, is there a way to encourage growth from that specific branch beyond what I've already done, or is it possible a lost cause?

[@onlyplants]

Interesting… I wonder what that variegation look like on that… but these guys should respond well to pruning. I hope you propagated top cuts. Sometimes plants dont grow a new branch at the node below where you cut… they may grow it at the base instead. The only way I can think of, and I might be wrong, would be to apply keiki paste (commonly used in orchids) around the node you want the branch to sprout.

[@lyndamodeste7902]

Very informative 😊

[@onlyplants]

❤️❤️

[@Thymework.s]

Just my 2 cents, but isn't it easier to water propagate first for the lateral-subterranean roots to develop before potting them?

[@onlyplants]

You are 100% right, but in my channel we take the experimental and risky side of things. I enjoyed showing both results - even my mistakes 😀

[@janecurtis5726]

Interesting that you can propagate by putting just the aerial root in the potting medium. Whether or not you have 100% success rate we learn from your mistakes!!

[@onlyplants]

Thank youu. I definitely recommend water propagation as the safest method!

[@sekaiomiruhitokaminoyume5426]

Hi , my monstera del albo is in danger , I’m back to one small roots , for the entire plant 😭😭😭. Should I put it in water or leca?

[@onlyplants]

Hmm its hard to advice without more information. DM me on instagram @bo.tan.ist

[@djong4075]

Pantesan my monstera propagation always die on me . I‘ve been doing it wrong😅 the whole-time ! i always submerge the whole cutting into the soil😅😅

[@onlyplants]

Haha yes you can do that, but dont overwater. When in soil keep it only very lightly moist

[@StanWatt.]

I still have to get a Constellation. One variegated monstera I bought never grew one millimetre, not one. I threw it out after a year. I bet I buy another lol.

[@onlyplants]

Whoaaaa maybe you got a plastic monstera by accident 😅 they are quite fast growing

[@melkazok]

So the top growing reverted and never will grow variegation. Did I understand correctly?

[@onlyplants]

I wouldnt say never… but the chances are extremely low to none.

[@MonsteraPlantM0M]

What type of moss is that ?

[@onlyplants]

Its regular sphagnum moss 😀

How do you spell etoliate? I cant find this word in the dictionary.

Etoliated - I believe it only comes in a past tense 😅

@@onlyplants oh it is an adjective. Then I think it should be "it is etoliated" instead of "it has etoliated". Sorry, ignore me. Just talking to myself.

@@leahnelson771 my point was more about people hoarding plants in general that they can't appreciate/take care of each of them properly anymore. And that downsizing is actually a good idea for some situation. Not trying to make anyone feel bad about themselves. But hey people are allowed to do what they want obviously.
