Monstera Deliciosa Growing Season. 3 years from mature plant in hardiness zone 12 4-5 years in hardiness zone 10b-11 5-6 year in hardiness zone 10a from seeds might take above 7 years in tropical. However it is best to feed the plant on spring and summer season and allow the plant to rest on winter months.
This should be done in the early summer June being optimal. Aerial roots will also not propagate the plant if they are grown alone without a branch. Monstera deliciosa is to Hawaii what Burmese pythons green iguanas and snakeheads are to the Everglades.
If your plant is not growing new leaves during the spring or fall season then it needs more bright indirect sunlight.
Most houseplant growers recommend not fertilizing during the winter season. Monstera deliciosa which is grown in sandy soil with a low pH should also get an annual soil drench. If you have been fertilizing once a month nutrient deficiency is an unlikely cause. Nutrient deficiencies can cause spots on Monstera leaves.
