Just found a trick to stop my monstera from drooping without a moss pole

My monstera was getting so top heavy it kept tipping over the pot. I tried tying it to wooden sticks but the stems slid right off. Then I grabbed a wire coat hanger from my closet, twisted it into a spiral shape, and stuck it in the soil. The leaves latch onto the coils perfectly and it cost me zero dollars. It's been holding steady for 3 weeks now even after watering. Has anyone else used random house stuff for plant support?

A wire hanger sounds like it'd rust right into the soil.

I mean, it’s a hanger not a steel beam.
