    I've only done soils and regular hydro with leca before,I still watched this entire video and when I found out about pon and granulets semi-hydro, I had to try it. This is by far the most informative and helpful starter video out there.I wish I could have showed it to myself a few months ago!!

    @aishaaswani 2 года назад +2

    Co-incidence. I recently started growing my dying monstera deliciosa cutting in Leca. It's doing well and looks beautiful in a glass container. I wasn't aware about the hydroponics nutrition as I didn't do much research. I'll get that soon.
    I want to explore more options too in hydroponics but unsure if I should do that right now. So I guess I'll keep experimenting with Leca for a few months.
    Thank you for this informative article Ann,
    it helps a lot. 💚

Do let me know if there’s such an option..many thanks!

    Weekly flushing is also needed to avoid issues. Some might say its not necessary but once a healthy plant rots one will realise how important it is.
    Its better to be ready.

    @Geeks of Green
    Hi Ann ,
    That point at 14 minutes 7 seconds! Caught my attention 🙋That's what I was really wanting to hear about... I lost A few cuttings of my wandering jew n money plant... Maybe it was the lack of nutrition or brittle roots , or even over watering 🙆 I used to fill it up to the brim 🤦
    Actually tried it out after watching your video with Plantastic Sunny ... I had it all wrong n put my leca off in the corner of my garden thinking it's useless 🤷 Maybe it's time to get my hands back on them 🥳 Going ahead n trying it once again with the tips n tricks I learnt in this video 🤗
    Happy Gardening 💐
    P.S.
    Wanted to know if it's really necessary to wash/clean the leca or soak it before using them for the fist time after purchase ...
    Please do lemme know on this 🙋
    Thanks 😊

So i took it out and have placed them in sphagnum moss inside a closed container. Had ordered plant substrate from nicole and asked if it will do good in it but she said it wouldn’t. Now i guess after this video i m clear that it wouldn’t do good in leca either. So can you suggest if i should repot the strings in soil later or shall i leave it sphagnum because its doing good their

      These are designed to be used for hydroponics and semi-hydroponics. They may be too diluted to be used with soil. For soil ideally you need nutrients that get released slowly over time.
