Everything looking good! Question please - how often roughly do you water? And also how do you determine what substrate to use for each plant? I just learnt watching this that the house plant mix stays wet longer than tree fern?? I always thought it would be the other way around! 🤦‍♀️ lol

I water about every 2 weeks, but don't take that as the standard, it all depends on conditions in your own home. I honestly just like to experiment with both so it's just a random decision! not everything has a definite technical explanation 💚

Can you grow hoya in straight TFF permanently in a nursery pot (free draining) in regular house conditions (we have good light/sunblasters and 65% humidity) for years and years? How do you know when to water? Do you let it dry out and change color to light brown (like how you find TFF in the bag when you first buy it and it is dry), or do you keep it moist, but no standing water? I have hoya in 3"pots and let them dry out too much I think and lost a few of the roots on the outer edges of the pot... Thank you for your videos :)

I think there are better differences rather than leaf patterns: Monstera Thai Cons has tight internodal spacing, Borsigianas (albos, aureas, etc...) has longer internodal spacing. Thais can get huge, Borsigianas are smaller in leaf size. Thais as Deliciosas have ruffles where the leaf attaches to the stems, Borsigianas wont show this trait (some might show in its mature state though). Bosigianas are climbers, Thai Cons they can go either way, climb or crawl.

PON (and/or LECA) is the only way I can have Alocasias with more than 1 leaf at a time. I have slowly switched many other plants (Hoya, Schismatoglottis, Homalomena, Monstera, vining Philodendron, Maranta, Calatheas, Stromanthe, Peperomia, and even a few of my snake plants) to semi-hydro, mostly because I find rocky substrates easier to maintain. I really love the product you presented, especially in that it comes in different "pebble" sizes.

Hi Rachel. I've recently started using Pon and was fortunate to get a large bag of Lechusa. I decided to add some jumbo perlite as well as small leca just to lighten the weight of the larger pots. Also, I've put wicks in the pots to ensure my mix is taking up the water. So far it's working brilliantly for me, I love not having to deal with the mess that I make with soil and being able to reuse the Pon. I do wish we could get a coarser one in Australia, it may be out there but I haven't found it yet. Thank you so much for sharing your very informative video on Pon, I'm definitely a convert to semi hydro with Pon and even intend to switch a lot of my plants from leca to Pon.
