@@aliciaparker8004 if they’re baby plants they usually don’t fuss too much. Established calatheas do experience a bit of shock when the roots get unsettled. I found the best results when I removed their soil and then put them in water for 1-2 weeks before moving them to pon. Make sure the pon is rinsed well. With self-watering pots with wicks I often had to modify the wicks to make sure all the pon was evenly moist. Never tap water. I’ve had 13 different species do very well with that setup and no additional humidity. I find even moisture is much more important than humidity for them. Good luck!

Pon was an idea awhile ago but not enough to keep my attraction to experiment w at the same time as leca and perlite.

@Anna-pd6dc3 жыл бұрын
That's kind of a misconception! When leaves start to turn yellow it's actually because the plant is pulling resources out of them to store/reuse - so generally it's better to leave a leaf until it's fully dead. (Unless its like a pest or rot that could spread)

@charlottecobain6986 Жыл бұрын
I know this is a bit of an old comment but figured I’d answer based on my research and experience. Pon is probably easier simply due to ph issues that leca can create. I’m more experienced with leca and love it, but it can be a lot of work with nutrients/reservoirs and flushes, balancing ph pretty constantly. I’m just now trying pon over the last few months and it’s less work than leca. Leca gives you quicker visible results because you can dial in nutrients and get pretty explosive growth whereas pon has a much slower release fertilizer component. You could probably get similar results if you made your own pon and used your own liquid nutes, as with leca. I’ve found that full/semi hydro is needed to get those results (roots partially submerged) rather than wicking systems but that could just be dependent on environmental factors.

I'm sure there's more scientific reasons for why it's a good substrate regarding it's wicking abilities etc. but for me it's just fun to experiment!

you can definitely use liquidirt and superthrive! I'd be a little more careful with the miracle-gro since it would be more likely to cause burn.

@@wildfern thank you!! Turns out I got TWO bags of zeolites, rather than one zeolite and one lava rock. Sigh. And I got FloorDry which is not pumice, it’s diatomaceous earth. So much for my dang “research!” 🫠 now I’m trying to figure out if I can still use them and just get lava rock to add to my mix, idk. I feel so silly 🙈 gonna transfer some heart leaf philodendron to my mix in the meantime and see how it does, which I continue with my “research” lol thank you anyways for the info!!

It actually appears that I can still use the diatomaceous earth granules and bigger zeolites in my mix, and I’ll just buy lava rocks to ensure there’s better aeration. And I’ll incorporate some of these mediums to my soil for my outdoor veggie garden! Not as terrible of a mistake, thankfully…
