Got my first monstera yesterday at a cheapy supermarket (Lidl!) and went to repot today as I thought there were 2-3 plants. There are 9. I’ve gone from zero monstera to NINE. Help me 😂

Ok, wow. Well first you should correct the supports on the bigger ones. Do you see where the air roots are coming out? That odd the back of the plant and where the support needs to go, I would adjust them in the pot so that the support is near the edge of the pot with the back against/touching the support and the front facing out/across the pot. This gives it room to grow in. It doesn’t matter what direction the leaves are facing right now. Face the plant towards light with the support away from the light and it will straighten itself out and grow nicely. Try to figure out the back of the little ones also and do the same with giving them a little support so they get used to it and basically mark where their back is so you face them correctly and they grow pretty.
How do you know if they are separate? Or do you manually separate?
Good luck! I bought a monstera that was actually two in the beginning of June last year. Now they are so big I am considering selling one of them. They grow so fast!
