Mitoza plant a seed5/16/2023 ![]() Plant the seeds so they’re lightly covered with the soil, then cover the planter with a dome whether it’s a greenhouse dome, glass dome, or just a ziploc baggie you put over the planter. When planting in soil, whether you’re planting the seeds directly or after they’ve already germinated, you’ll want to use a peat-based potting mix moistened up with warm distilled water or rainwater. I’ll continue on assuming the mini greenhouse method. If you want to actually watch the seeds germinate, go with the paper towel method, otherwise the ziploc bag or the mini greenhouse setup would be best. This’ll help break down the outer coating to make it easier for the seeds to germinate, as well as re-hydrate the seeds if they dried out at all.ģ) Set-up: There are several different set-up methods that would work for Monstera Deliciosa seeds, you can reference this post I have here on houseplant seed set-ups. That being said, if you’re pre-soaking them, pour some hot/warm water in a jar, add the seeds and leave them in there for 24-48hrs before planting them. If the seeds are a little dried out, that’s usually fine, if they really start to look like a raisin, have that super wrinkled appearance and look mostly tan/brown, then it may be a little late for them, but just a little wrinkling doesn’t damage the viability much.Ģ) Pre-soak: Pre-soaking the seeds is recommended but not required, especially if the seeds are extremely fresh. In general, I recommend planting the seeds within a week of receiving them so you lower the risk of them losing viability. A great way to store them is to place them in sphagnum moss in a fridge, that’ll usually keep them at a good moisture level and store them until you’re ready to plant them. They’re tough to keep fresh, as you can’t let them dry out, but you can’t let them get too much moisture. You can usually tell if they’ll be viable based on appearances, Monsteras need to be fresh, the freshest seeds are hard and green/yellow/light brown. 1) Caring for the seeds: Getting Monstera Deliciosa seeds to germinate is actually the easy part, the hard part is getting the seeds fresh and healthy.
