I went looking on the internet for guidance on repotting a very big cheese plant, and the examples I found of 'very big cheese plants' being repotted were depressingly tiny.
I do not thing our big cheese plant can realistically be repotted.


Fortunately Big Cheese is doing really well, and has gotten noticeably happier since Little Cheese moved in next door. It's very strange and lovely; since the smaller plant was moved to that place, the Big Cheese has put out far more leaves at the lower levels. Notice how the leaves at the lower level are really new and fresh. Big Cheese wants to be friends with Little Cheese :3:

This is Little Cheese:


edit: Little Cheese used to live in a not very well-lit, and extremely drafty part of the house. Back then, Little Cheese only ever had 4-5 leaves and was always quite frail. Since moving to the room with Big Cheese, Little Cheese has absolutely thrived and is putting out a new leaf at least once a month ( they currently have at least 22 leaves).
It's wonderful :3:.

Whenever I've had to repot a really large plant that is difficult to maneuver (like a really heavy spiky cactus) I've found that it's a lot simpler and a lot easier on the plant to sacrifice the pot and smash it or cut it away. Getting them out of the old pot is usually the hard part, getting them into a new larger pot is usually comparatively easy.

That's a lovely, healthy happy cheese - look at those happy new leaves! Manuel is a happy healthy cheesey boy :)

I'm 100% no expert, but I do love them very much. They are insanely tough, resilient plants -in their own environments, they live in very high humidity, and a lot of warmth. I've seen our own cheeses survive in extremely low-humidity, pretty cold - prolonged temps under 10 celcius, and they've been fine.
We had a previous extremely large cheese, and what killed him was -10 celcius weather that froze his floating roots as they came in touch with the pot. He could have survived pretty much anything else. I didn't realize what the problem was until the poor old boy was almost dead.

After that, all the Cheeses got brought into the heated parts of the house. No freezing cold for our giant plant friends.

So named because the leaves look weird but it has edible fruits. Here's the fruits on one of the monsteras in my backyard:



Apparently it takes a year for the fruit to ripen but I've never tasted them because they usually get eaten by critters before they ripen. :(

The main problem is that Big Cheese is almost entirely an aerial plant at this point. His upper portion is hanging out of a strap attached to the upper picture rail. Smashing the pot is definitely an option, and I'd like to do it, since the poor old guy has had the same compost for at least 30 years and drat, that's just not nice.
But on the other hand, his root ball might well be stuck to the pot, and we lost a lovely cheese plant to exactly that problem less than a year ago, when we tried to re-pot it.

It's not ideal, but watering and then regularly feeding Big Cheese is keeping him happy and healthy even with the not-ideal pot situation. We regularly catch and place his floating roots so that they land in the pot to get food and water. I'm extremely fond of him and his little cheesy friend, so I'm very wary of doing anything that might hurt either of them.

Looks amazing. Do you reinforce it with sticks it can climb up or does it just form sturdy enough stalks to not collapse under its own weight?

Just behind the base of the highest leaf, there is a picture hook screwed into the picture rail. That carries a wide black strap that is wrapped around the upper parts of Big Cheese to support his weight. It extends down about 3 feet to support the upper parts, and the rest of the plant depends from that structure. It's wide ribbon-type material, which is good, because it doesn't cut into the stalks when they get too thick and heavy.

I never knew what these were called. I had a friend that was about half the size of Big Cheese, and just never asked. How much sunlight do they need?

And if the ball was stuck to the pot, it'd cause some trauma I imagine, but couldn't just kind of cut straight down, or like scrape down the sides of the pot, then break/cut it open?

Do you think the pot size is causing any issue in growth?

(what a strange-rear end thread to find this sort of info in)

As far as I know, they are an undergrowth forest plant, so they do not need a lot of direct light.
In my own experience, they are extremely resilient, tough plants who just keep going in a very wide variety of circumstances.
Little Cheese in my first post lived in a very draughty hall in Ireland for at least 20 years. He survived but didn't thrive until he was moved into a much warmer, much less draughty room.
He's grown so much since he was moved and is an entirely different plant.

Scraping down the sides to detach the root ball would probably be pretty successful but when we were repotting all the leafy lads, we had no idea what we were doing, so it was crazy lucky it went as well as it did.

I'm not going anywhere near Big Cheese's pot.
I've never seen that plant so happy as when that Little Cheese moved in next door.
It's seriously adorable.
Big Cheese is putting out all these new leaves beside Little Cheese, and Little Cheese is healthier than I've seen them in decades.
