Remember that if you measure incorrectly and your fertilizer solution is too concentrated, this can actually burn and cause the dreaded crispy, brown edges on your more delicate variegated leaves! I use a 1/4 teaspoon measuring spoon to measure the fertilizer and use a plastic gallon jug that I reuse. You should always measure both the fertilizer and the water carefully.
I add 1/4 teaspoon per gallon of water to be safe. I like to use the low end of the range and water it with this solution every time I water throughout the growing season.įor example, the Dyna-Gro Grow label says to add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water for feeding every time you water.

These conditions are fairly low light, but they will also climb up trees via their plentiful aerial roots to seek out higher light.įor your variegated Monstera deliciosa, find the brightest window you can but keep direct sunlight to a minimum. In nature, they grow in the understory of the jungle.
They will certainly tolerate low light, especially the all-green version, but if it’s too dark they will not grow well. In nature, these plants are actually very versatile when it comes to light requirements.
