monstera node aerial route feels flat
Does anyone know if this is normal for a node or is the aerial root rotting? #Monstera #MonsteraMob οΏΌ

@PrinceVince44 well, sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but that looks deceased. Itβs a little hard to tell from this pic but does the brown area encompass half of that wet stick? You might have to try again with a different node π
@DreamMachine Its just the bottom of the node, I think its done for π I do have another node I think I was able to save the aerial root from rotting completely. Hoping that works out.
@TRose the area route on this node was all the way into the node itself. I did have another node, but it dried out too much for me to use.
@PrinceVince44 tbh as long as it has green parts and isnβt mushy, I wouldnβt give up. Do you have a tall vase or glass? Put a small layer of pebbles at the bottom, then cover it with a few inches of moss (if you have it) or monstera mix. Rest it atop a few inches of moist medium in there and see how it goes, periodically watering it to keep things moist but not wet. The tall walls of the glass will keep the humidity in, and the pebble layer will allow for drainage but also force excess drained water to evaporate up back into the mossβ¦. So the node will be surrounded by humidity without being wet or buried and still have plenty of airflow.
