Repotting Monstera Deliciosa

JoyUsGarden.com

Spring and summer are to repot a Monstera. It's best to avoid repotting in winter if possible because it's not the active growing season for plants.

The soil mix I use is rich and yields good drainage to prevent root rot. It consists of 1/2 potting soil. 1/2 coco coir, few handfuls of coco chips, and I end by top dressing with a 1/2 inch layer of worm compost & compost.

Make sure the pot you are planting in has plenty of drainage holes so the excess water can flow out the bottom. This prevents root rot

You don’t want to let the soil completely dry while the plant settles into it's new pot. 

Many people use a moss pole (often called a coir pole), as their plant grows to keep it upright. The arial roots (shown above) will latch on to what it's growing against.
