r/ThaiConstellation

I’m planning on repotting my Thai con and want to add a plant but am having trouble determining which is the front and back.

It looks like the aerial roots and leaves are facing the same direction. Aren’t the aerial roots supposed to grow from the back of the plant?

What part of the stem should I have resting against the plank?

Edit: see additional pic for another root on the opposite side of the 2nd pic.

I only reported maybe 2 months ago but just noticed the roots today

I’m repotting my Monstera Thai Constellation today and wanted to get some opinions before I finish.
I just took it out of its old pot, and the root system looks pretty healthy to me, with lots of thick roots and new growth. The plant itself seems to be doing well too.
I have three ingredients available: Miracle-Gro Potting Mix, Miracle-Gro Perlite, and Miracle-Gro Orchid Potting Mix.
I’m thinking of mixing them at around 30% potting soil, 40% orchid mix, and 30% perlite.
Does that sound like a good combination for a Thai Constellation? Would you remove more of the old soil around the roots, or leave most of it alone?
I’m also planning to add a coco coir support pole.
Any advice would be appreciated! I really want to get this repotting right.

Are you ever so excited to see your new leaf that you just wanna take it out and unfurl it already! This leaf has been teasing me for the last 3 days slowly peaking out. This is my first new leaf that since getting my Thai con a couple weeks ago.

Hello, I recently noticed these brown speckled dots on the sides of my monstera leaf as well as this brown patch on one of its vereigated leaves. Could this be a sign of thrips or some other insect infestation? Or could it be from something like underwatering or not enough sun?

I probably water around every 2 weeks and it sits in front of a north facing window. I have not seen any actual bugs when I checked the plant’s leaves or stems, though. Also, it seems to be growing normally and the new leaves look completely healthy (see pic 4). Thanks for the help!

Hello everyone, i just bought this mostera at HEB a week ago and i repotted it today, in the process a few short roots fell off, should i be worried? ( i used a chunky mix)

Also that is a sansi light, can anyone guide me if the distance and brightness are good ?

Thank you very much in advance!!
