purpleinopp: Thats pretty interesting! Do you know what could have caused that with my plant? And if I for some reason don't want it to maintain its mature state, is there anything to do to prevent it?

I have a theory that i should have cut of the stem that didn't have the aerial root attached to it. I just repotted it to a bigger pot because the root growht was beyond all expectations, and I found it quite interesting that ALL of its roots came from the aerial root. Therefore the plant only have one root (the aerial root) attached to itself.

Is this the way it should be with monstera cuttings? If not, is there anything i can do to "fix it"? Maybe it's because of this the plant kept it's ontological age, maybe it still thinks it's attached to it's motherplant?

If you look at the picture in my first post in this thread, it's the stem going straight up I think i should have cut.

Thanks for all encouraging comments Smiling
