I have been binge watching your videos all winter! Now that spring is approaching, I have purchased all things needed (Leca, Moss pole, Moss, Superthrive, Grow light) and I couldn’t be more excited!!! I am now back watching your amazing videos to refresh my knowledge, as I prepare to erect my own Moss pole/ Leca setup. You truly have inspired me to dive into this community CONFIDENTLY!!💜😎😎🌱 My Thai Con, Florida Lucky & other Aroids definitely owe you a Thank You!🙏

Hi Nora, thanks for another informative video!😊 One idea that worked for me is using a drip irrigation cone / self watering spike. I got a plastic one that fits to any water bottle. Then I follow your idea of tipping it into the moss pole. One benefit is that I can control the speed of solution coming out - I keep it to a slow drip especially for dried up moss sticks. Since the flow is slow, the moss is able to soak up even when fully dry. Looking forward to your next video!

Thank you Appoolika and thanks for coming back again and again. I have toyed with the idea of a watering spike. I think it would work well. I had hoped to include that idea in this video but alas, too many ideas and too little time.

Perfect timing. I recently added the plastic backed moss pole for a couple of my beauties that are in leca and was wondering how I could water. Thank you so much. Also and I am so excited about this. Walked into my local hydroponics store this past weekend and low and behold they had Clonex! You know I bought it am now using it for my beauties. Keep those tips coming because I'm watching and learning.

Doesnt the moss rot by time and then organic stuff ends in the water reservoir which is inorganic?

How do you decide when to put a plant on a moss pole instead of a trellis? Also why does some of the poles have a plastic back and some do not? And when is the best time to put a plant on a moss pole?
@TheLecaQueen
@TheLecaQueen 2 жыл бұрын
Best time to put a plant on a moss pole is when it is still very small. Any plants that have aerial roots I like to place on a moss pole. If it has no aerial roots it can go on a trellis. Plastic back moss poles take longer to make, use more materials and when I am in a rush I make the easy one!

@@antonfilimonov9131 some of them do unfortunately but not most. I take care of my plants around my life and not the other way around so if a plant is not thriving with the care I can provide then that's it, that plant will have to go. This is a hobby that is meant to be calming for me not stress me out with schedules. I have enough of that in my real life. However, I like to tell people what is optimal and let them decide what works for them. It is all about what works for you and your plants, same for me.

Hi. Great video! When you say nutrient solution, does that mean I can use any regular plant fertilizer for the moss pole? Or is it a specific fertilizer for moss poles?
@TheLecaQueen
@TheLecaQueen 2 жыл бұрын
Thank you. It depends on what medium you are growing your plant in. If you are using semi hydro then you need to use a hydroponic nutrient.

How many times do you do this per week? That seems like a lot of work! But again, looking at how great your plants look on the moss poles, it might be worth it!! Have you tried growing any of your climbers on wood stakes/planks? I see a few people have good success with it. Thinking of trying it out since it's lesser maintenance.

Your plants are so luscious! Another idea came into my head while watching you use bottles on top of moss poles,can you drill a few holes in the bottle cap to slow the flow of the water? Just wondering if that would work! Not that your way isn’t working,just for other like myself who is a lacking confidence! 👌🏻🪴
