Hi all. Im now to the world of Monsteras and reasonably new to the bug that is house plants. Just wanted to share my plant with you.
I ordered one of those Halo lights from amazon without doing my homework but after reading a post I sent it back upon delivery. I opted for an overhanging,tilted backwards E27 lamp paired with a 36w Sansi bulb (the wife also said it has to look nice and I go by the motto "happy wife, happy life") so i could always have the leaves facing out in to the room showing its best side. Changed out the garden centre soil for a chunky well draining soil mix (monstera, succulent, orchid chips and perlite) even with the 14 hours under the lamp today I've noticed a change in posture from having it in front of the window as the UK has brought us nothing but cloudy skies lately. The only thing I may end up doing is raising this baby closer to the light source. PPFD meter is showing 145 from the top of the middle of the middle big leaf. Anyway, stay safe out there and keep those fingers green.
