Yesterday started with fungus gnats, which set the tone. My grow light turned out to be the most useful thing all week. None of this is new, but propagating in water is new to me. The monstera looked fine, and then suddenly it didn't.
The notebook says 18 cm pot, which is about what I expected. I took a photo, but it doesn't really show a plant that finally flowered. I wrote down 9 new leaves this time, for comparison. The more I do repotting, the less I know, in a good way.
Some of roots in the jar is luck, and I'm fine with that. The goal for October is no more gnats, and we'll see how that goes.
