Built a planter table today as well. Need to finish it off and varnish it in the morning.

WOW! So, I didn't hold out much hope for this guy when I accidentally knocked off his cotyledon while I was removing the moisture dome last week: deprived of the nutrients the mother plant saved up for its development in the cotyledon, the nascent seedling is usualy doomed. But the stalk didn't shivel or brown, so I concocted a very dilute solution of a rooting hormone and neutral fertilizer in the water i carefully gave it alone (over-stimulating seedlings can be damaging to the health of the resulting plant).
Looks like it worked! This is an ~extreme~ close up β€” the true leaves it is forming are currently only about the size of hangnails. And it isn't out of the woods yet. But with it being only the second seedling to develop true leaves from the Indonesian Rainbow plumeria mother's pod, it's the kind of thing that brings me joy in today's world.

Now that it's actually #MonsteraMonday I will show off this leaf again. This plant is 9 months old, grown from seed, and has been a bit faster to develop than the other two, but I never expected splits to happen this early! Everything I have read says that most #Monstera plants don't start splitting until well past the 1 year mark.
