Cuttings should be taken just after a leaf node, removing the bottom-most leaves. Then either root the swiss cheese plant cuttings in water for a few weeks and transplant to a pot or partially bury the cuttings directly in the soil itself. Since they root so easily, there's no need for rooting hormone.

How do you grow Monstera deliciosa from seed?
Seed from a Monstera is quite easy to get, but it doesn't have a long shelf life: the sooner you plant it, the better. First, allow the seeds to soak 12 hours in lukewarm water. The seeds should swell a bit. Then plant the seed in a little soil and keep the soil moist.
How long does it take for Monstera cuttings to root?
You should begin seeing roots growing from your cuttings after 3-5 weeks. The main thing you want to look for is that the new roots are at least 1 inch long. Once your cutting has many roots of that size, it is ready to be placed into a pot to continue growing.
Can you grow Swiss cheese plant in water?
Lots of tropical plants can be propagated through cuttings and kept alive in water, but some of the best species to do this include Split Leaf Philodendren, Monstera deliciosa “swiss cheese plant” (top vintage bottle) , Tradescantia zebrina “Wandering Jew” (above) and Pothos (in amber glass also with Wandering Jew).
Can I propagate Monstera without node?
Propagating Monstera without node is not feasible as a Monstera cutting needs at least one node for propagation. The node is like the brain containing the blueprints for further plant growth. Without the presence of a node no new leaf can form and the cutting itself will not turn into a full plant.
Can you propagate Monstera in water?
You can propagate your cutting in water or soil. Water works just as well as soil and has the advantage of being easier to check progress. Keep your cutting in a warm, bright location. If growing in water change the water out regularly.
Can you grow Monstera Albo from seed?
They can not be grown from seed (Variegated Albo or Thai). Regular Monstera seeds are like a green/yellow about the size of a kernel of corn. I grow them. from seed you can see a seed pod here.
Can you grow white monstera from seeds?
Monstera deliciosa propagation can be done by seeds, germinating within a few weeks. ... Seeds can be started much like any other plant, gently covering them with a thin layer of soil. They should be kept moist but don't worry too much about light.
Can you grow variegated monstera from seeds?
Absolutely – if you take the time to learn how to germinate them, keep them warm, and make sure they stay moist, your seeds should germinate pretty quickly. Except they won't grow into variegated Monstera.
How long does it take for a cutting to root in water?
Several cuttings may be placed together in one container. Be sure to add fresh water as needed until the cuttings are fully rooted. Rooting will generally occur in 3-4 weeks but some plants will take longer. When the roots are 1-2 inches long or longer the cutting is ready to be potted up.
Where can I cut Monstera to propagate?
You'll want to cut directly below a node or aerial root. My cutting was a vine length of 6 leaves and 6 nodes/aerial roots. , you'll want to cut each leaf & node into individual segments on either side of the node/aerial root. You should be left with leaves with an attached node/aerial root like this.
Will Monstera grow back after cutting?
Over time, your monstera will lose its lower leaves as it continues to climb; even pinching off growth tips won't stop its upward growth. While there's no way to encourage regrowth on those bare lower stems, it's easy to propagate a new, fuller-looking plant from a healthy stem with several leaves.
