Separate or no?
#Monstera I’ve had Molly about a month now and she’s been growing and doing great. I just realized though, she’s actually four plants out together and I’m worried she’s going to take over my house eventually. Do I separate her at all or let it fly?

@Lbabylee 👍🏻 that’s kind of what I was thinking cuz I just repotted her and then realized it. I’m new 😁
NO, NO and did I say NO? Dont do anything that drastic after only a month and there’s nothing wrong w having 4 together. Before u even repot a plant, it should double in size and the root ball should take up at least 60-90% of the pot. Too much room in the pot that takes up soil rather than root is worse than the reverse. Please allow ur plant to get to know its new home and u to know him! Don’t get excited over doing something just to do it. Most times plants r better left alone so water and feed as directed or needed, keep an eye out for pests, give it the required light for type of plant and leave it alone beyond that I beg of u!! Besides it might be the light or my eyes but I don’t see 3 of anything stems aren’t the same as plants and please allow it to grow and flourish. Get a lighted magnifying glass and keep an eye on it. I think u will see what i see w Molly! Enjoy her vibrancy and don’t make her a skinny mini!!! I’m afraid u would do more harm than good, if any good at all which I don’t think u would find any good to come of this so please don’t touch her
