Question

#Monstera

@Prentyce · Answer

I don’t have a cutie monstera Swiss!!! Eek but let me tag the bestie experts!! @PoisedAlbo @princesspitstop @RealSimpleMama @elisenavidad any Swiss soil tips 🥹🤩🌱 
I would suppose along the lines of their cousin the Monstera Delicosa.. it’s chunky mix with nice water retention! Like a soil with added perlite and orchid bark. Any ideas plant queens 🤩🥹🌱✨

@Prentyce @KindFierycostus Yep Prentyce that's correct! I have Succulent Soil mixed with perlite in all my aroids. 3 part succulent soil 1 part perlite

Hey! I’d recommend a chunky, well draining soil. I prefer to make my own mix of fox farms soil, medium size perlite and orchid bark! A chunky, soilless medium is not recommended for these!

@stephonicle · Answer

I just mixed up a batch of soil to repot my monsteras. It's 5 parts coco chips, 5 parts perlite, 1 part coco coir, and 1 part horticultural charcoal. Also added pumice just because I had some laying around 😛

Just to add a different flavour here, I grow ALL of mine in LECA, they’re very happy in semi-hydro 😁😁😁
