During the winter it often loses its charm. It is wasting due to lack of sun and dry airso it is not enough to just water it from time to time. If you want it to be healthy, look beautiful and grow new leaves, try to strengthen it.
However, for your monstera to gain vigor, you do not need expensive store-bought nutrients. A popular product, or more specifically a spice from the kitchen cupboard, will be enough. Pour some of it into the dough and the rest into the pot .
Are you wondering how to take care of your monstera in winter? There are a few rules to remember. Firstly you need to provide more light to the plant, e.g. by placing it closer to the window, and ensure that the humidity in the room where the plant is located is increased.
For this purpose, you can install an air humidifier. This is probably the best solution, but it is also a good idea to sprinkle it with soft water from time to time, or simply bring a stand with water and expanded clay.
Above all, don’t put the flower next to the radiator, because it will die, and water it… less often, only after the top layer of the soil dries upso as not to contribute to the rotting of the monstera or the appearance of fungal diseases.
It may provide additional support for your plant in the form of cinnamon. Just one teaspoon of this spice in a pot will bring better results than most store-bought monstera fertilizers.
Cinnamon is a natural growth stimulator for monstera that prevents fungal diseases (limits the development of pathogens in the substrate), inhibits putrefactive processes and stimulates tissue regeneration. Thus, it can also contribute to improving the color of leaves and growing new ones. And even in winter.
When it comes to how to prepare cinnamon conditioner for monstera, it is not complicated and the effects are worth the effort. Just make sure you have the right proportions of cinnamon to water.
Ingredients:
- Ceylon cinnamon – 1 teaspoon
- boiled water – 1 liter
Boil water, cool it and add cinnamon. Mix the ingredients thoroughly and set aside for an hour. Be sure to strain it, e.g. through a paper towelso that the sediment does not clog the substrate and water the monstera. Repeat this once every 4-5 weeks, being careful not to accidentally flood the leaves when watering.
