Node Activation Techniques for Monstera Plants
Learn how to activate multiple nodes on your Monstera plant, promoting growth and propagation. Updates on activating nodes on Monstera plants.
00:00:00 An update on two Monstera plants: Thai Constellation and Platinum Mint. The Thai Constellation has a backstory and has been chopped multiple times, while the Platinum Mint has mint variegation.
🌱 The video provides an update on a Monstera Thai Constellation and a Monstera Platinum Mint.
🌿 The Thai Constellation plant was purchased for a good price and has undergone pruning and propagation.
🌱 The Monstera Platinum Mint has unique mint variegation and multiple activated nodes.
00:01:35 Learn how to activate multiple nodes on your Monstera plant, promoting growth and propagation. Discover the fascinating process of node activation and the benefits for plant expansion.
🌱 When propagating a Monstera plant, chopping and propping the stem horizontally activates multiple nodes, causing them to send out growth.
🌿 One node eventually becomes the most advanced, receiving all the growth hormone, while the others pause. This node takes off and continues to grow.
🪴 By chopping up the different nodes and creating cuttings with root systems, you can propagate the plant and ensure continuous growth in each cutting.
00:03:14 Updates on activating nodes on Monstera plants. Monitoring growth points for leaf development and potential future cuttings.
🌱 The video discusses the process of activating nodes on a Monstera plant.
🍃 The presence of leaves is important for photosynthesis and the growth of the plant.
🌿 Multiple growth points on the plant are being monitored for the emergence of leaves.
🌱 Axillary buds on the plant are starting to activate.
00:04:52 Learn how to activate nodes on your Monstera plants, with updates on Thai Constellation and Platinum Mint varieties.
🌱 The Monstera plant activates nodes when it grows past the sheath along the stem.
🌿 The Thai Constellation and Platinum Mint plants demonstrate horizontal growth along the surface of the soil.
🍃 Cuttings from the base of the plant can successfully produce roots and new leaves.
00:06:29 A Monstera plant has multiple nodes that have activated and are competing to become the dominant growth point. The one furthest in development is likely to achieve apical dominance, shutting off the growth of other nodes.
The plant has grown sideways, activating multiple nodes.
Each node is competing to become the dominant growth point.
Nodes with apical dominance shut off other nodes from growing.
00:08:09 Learn how to activate multiple nodes on your Monstera plant, allowing for more growth points and potential cuttings for sale. Excitingly, some of the activated buds are already producing fenestrated leaves.
🌱 By using tips from the plant, the speaker was able to activate multiple nodes on their Monstera plant, allowing for more growth and the potential to sell tip cuttings.
🌿 The speaker observed that the activated nodes on the plant had roots that had grown into the soil, indicating their potential for survival and further growth.
🍃 A leaf with fenestrations, despite its unconventional appearance, was observed to be emerging from one of the nodes, adding to the speaker's excitement for future growth.
00:09:50 Learn how to maximize space and optimize plant growth by activating multiple nodes on your Monstera plant. Increase plant size and save space with this technique.
🌱 Growing multiple plants in a single pot can save space and provide aesthetically pleasing plants for your home or shop.
🌿 By activating many nodes on your Monstera plant, you can have larger plants that can be easily sold or propagated.
🎄 Enjoy the December videos and have a Merry Christmas!
