How do I grow my Monstera Deliciosa from seed?
Our packet contains detailed instructions on how to grow your Monstera Deliciosa from a seed, however, here are the 2 most important things to watch out for.
The Potting mix– get one that offers a good combo between water retention and drainage. A premium potting soil mixed with some peat moth and perlite will be a good solution and offer the best basis to grow your baby Monstera plant.
After you prepare your potting bed, place the seeds carefully in the middle of the pot and cover them with a layer of vermiculite which is great at retaining water and at keeping your seeds moist.
Humidity is a key element when germinating the Monstera seeds. To best reproduce their natural habitat you can either invest in a greenhouse or place cling film wrap on the top of your pot. Don’t forget though that seeds also need oxygen so be careful not to suffocate them and always allow some air to circulate around the seed.
One of the biggest killers of seeds is drought so it’s crucial to create a humid environment where the seed always has an adequate level (not too little but not too much either) of moisture around it.
