To divide or not to divide?
#Monstera well apparently I have three plants in the pot - itβs how it came when I bought it. Now Iβm wondering if I should keep it as is, separate 1 plant (2 plants in 1 pot and 1 plant in another) or just separate them into 3 pots?
What do you think?

Big box stores often stuff multiple plants together to make them look more full.
Whether or not you decide to separate them is totally up to you and whether youβd like o have two or even 3 of those bad boys or not!
Do you prefer to have a big, bushy looking plant? If so, Iβd recommend keeping it in that pot as the roots will fill the pots and put more focus on leaf growth.
Just be aware of how much you water as you donβt want to cause root rot.
Hope this helps & welcome to the #MonsteraMob ππΌπͺ΄

@sarah10orio 10??!!π Iβm astonished and jealous !! Thatβs phenomenal!
I got this monstera in IKEA, originally it had 4 plants in the pot, and decided to separate them on a sunny day back in January!
I put 2/1/1. And honestly the are all growing beautifully!
I personally prefer to have more fenestrated leaves and a clean look of them, than to have it bushy.
I guess it's a matter of taste!
I got 3 new leaves since Jan, and a new one is coming <3

My plant journey only begun about 4 months ago, however, one of the few benefits to being super
ADHD is when I get fixated on something, I fixate and thatβs all I think about & read about π
@sarah10orio is the REAL plant Dr around here if you ask me π«‘
