Monstera adansonii archipelago ghost is a relatively rare cultivar that displays a "ghost" variegation pattern, similar to Philodendron Florida ghost. This type of variegation is directly influenced by the level of light exposure. New leaves are almost white (they may have a "mint" variegation), and as they mature and are shaded by other new leaves, they gradually turn green.

This cultivar has several advantages over other variegated Monstera adansonii cultivars, making it an easy plant to grow, even for beginners in the world of plants. Some of these advantages include:

Stable variegation without extreme risks: no risk of complete variegation (where leaves lack chlorophyll necessary for photosynthesis, leading to the plant's eventual death) or reversed variegation (where leaves turn entirely green).

Due to its light-dependent variegation, you can play the role of a "mini biologist" and discover how your actions directly influence the plant's growth, development, and aesthetics. For instance, exposing the plant to stronger light (always indirect light for Araceae species) will maintain the variegation, transitioning from white to cream-green as the leaves mature.

Similar to the classic Monstera adansonii, this cultivar is easy to care for. And unlike other variegated cultivars, it has a very good growth rate under optimal conditions: indirect bright light (east-facing windows are the best), humidity of 60% - 70%, and watering when the top two cm of the substrate have dried out.

 

Note: To check substrate humidity, insert your finger into the pot to a depth of 2 cm (0.8 inches). If the substrate feels moist, withhold watering for a day or two; if it feels dry, water it.

 

Note 2: When discussing watering, consider the size of the pot, the amount of substrate, and its aeration. Avoid pouring a liter of water into a pot with a diameter and height of 12 cm (4.7 inches) as it could drown the plant's roots. It's best to remove excess water from the collector tray half an hour after watering.

  • The plant can be mounted on a support pole covered in coconut fiber, allowing aerial roots to attach and resulting in a more vigorous stem and larger leaves. Alternatively, if you prefer the aesthetics of trailing plants, you can let it grow without support, and as the vines lengthen, secure them to walls using special clips.

 

Good luck with your care! And don't forget to give us updates about your plant using the hashtag #greenmirrors and tagging @green.mirrors in your Instagram posts. We promise to share them in our stories!

Solid primer well worth the cost.
Format: Kindle
Let's start with the understanding that I was not looking for War and Peace, here. I have always enjoyed the Sam's Teach Yourself in X Hours format, and this is another that gets the balance between what is needed to use the tool well and what is too much information for a beginner right. I was looking for something that could introduce me to this engine, giving enough understanding of the system to allow me to make games with normal use of the internet to get into the fine detail. This book is exactly what I was looking for. It introduces the engine and its main components and the general theory behind them, getting you up and running quickly. While the engine seems to be gathering a following, there is not a lot of material out there for it. This book covers the topics well enough to get functionally proficient without getting so far into the weeds that you would not finish it. The lessons are broken up in a way that makes sense, and there are full game exercises. I really liked the fact that the exercises follow the theory, so you are not simply walking through a bunch of actions that you do not understand, as happens in many "learn by making a game" tutorials. The writing and editing leave some to be desired, but did not get in the way of understanding.

Simple and Amazing! A Great Introduction to Godot For Aspiring Game Developers
Format: Kindle
Godot Engine Game Development in 24 Hours is a fine introduction to the Godot game engine, and quite an extensive look at the software. The book is 432 pages, and there is a wealth of information contained here. I’ve just started working with Godot myself, so much of the material was new, but it was explained clearly so anyone can understand. If you are interested in exploring Godot, this would be a excellent buy on your journey. If you are familiar with the Sams 24 hour books, they basically have 24 chapters each focused on a different aspect of the topic. The chapters are not long, and certainly would not take a hour to read each, but it’s good marketing I guess. In any case, I did enjoy that a range of areas were covered. So what’s in the book? We get a look at the scene system, 2D graphics, scripting, a few game demos like a space shooter (2D) and Bloxorz clone (3D), and a networked Bomberman clone (2D). Scripting, input, physics, user interface, project management, materials and shaders, light and shadow, environments, sound, particles, networking, and a bonus 25th chapters about using native code. Yeah, quite a survey for 400 pages. I felt like the authors expect some basic understanding of programming, but otherwise you do not have to be an experienced game developer to get value out of the book. Everything is explained simply and I did not notice any glaring errors. I really enjoyed that there were some simple game demos included, so readers could get a better idea of what a more complex project would look like. It also didn’t hurt that one of the authors co-created the engine, so I bet he knows what he’s talking about. All in all, a great book. As I said, I am just starting with Godot and this is the first book I have read on it. Seems like an awesome introduction and much more palatable than reading the documentation (though I will note that the Godot docs are high quality, it just can be daunting). So I can fully recommend this book to anyone interested.
