Monstera Acuminata Care

Water the Monstera acuminata only when the top 2 inches of soil have dried out. But ensure that you water it moderately and evenly. The environment you provide for your plant will dictate its actual watering needs.Monstera acuminata kept in a dry, hot climate might require watering more than once in the week. Comparatively, in a moderate climate, watering once will be enough.

You should either prune the leafless, trailing stems or install brass plant support or coco panels to help your plant climb. This plant is my favorite because of its small size but once established; it’s an aggressive grower.You can prune this plant any time before winter starts. Prune and trim the old, decaying leaves for aesthetics and growth.

Occasionally feed the plant with a light fertilizer application in the growing seasons. use 20-20-20 liquid fertilizer. You have to dilute about half a teaspoon in one gallon of water. this solution directly to the soil during the watering sessions.

This Monstera plant likes to live under bright, indirect light. If you suspect the light hits the plant directly during certain hours, filter the sunlight but installing window blinds or sheer curtains.Outdoors grow it under a net or tree because the sun will burn the leaves. As an indoor houseplant, Monstera acuminata can survive in medium sunlight.

For compost, you can use a good blend of peat, sphagnum moss, charcoal, and sand. A ball of 100% soilless medium, sphagnum moss in which the roots can spread out will also serve the same purpose. But the only issue with this medium is that your, Monstera acuminata, will have slow growth in the beginning.

This warmth-loving plant needs high temperature constantly for good growth. Average room temperature that does not go below 65 degrees Fahrenheit (18°C)This plant can tolerate maximum temperatures of 86 degrees Fahrenheit (30°C). I would also suggest frequent misting of the leaves.
