how I mix my nutrient solution 💚 PLANT CHORES (LECA)

[@megsmith4370]

I don't know who told you that we don't like Hoyas, but they lied. 😂 I love Hoyas, they're my favorite genus!

[@kevin.]

Oh yay!! I think my biggest supporters are Hoya fanatics 🤩💚

[@victorcantoran8053]

I enjoy the flowers, but the Hoyas really don’t do anything for me. Hint the fact that I don’t any in my collection LOL

[@inos3697]

Love Hoyas but it’s true, took me awhile to get on the Hoya train. Still have people who say they don’t like them, right in front of them! Lol. I think mine need more nutrients because Kevin’s looks soo healthy and mine look dull, yet the blooms have been awesome

[@jamesmaruca3437]

You have been so helpful understanding leca and nutrients. And you're adorable!

[@valariecarey2716]

I love hoyas, so please continue to include them in your content. Gives me inspiration 😃 You are such a cutie, Thanks for sharing your plant chores

[@annedg]

Thank you for always being so open and sharing everything you do to keep your plants thriving! I’m not sure if you have done this already in another video but could you explain why you chose to add certain things into your nutrient solutions like the calmag, rapidstart, diamond nectar, hudroguard? What exactly are the benefits to adding these in and what kind of changes you’ve seen before and after adding them to your solution? Thank you!!

[@Mels-world]

I was really considering leca for my Thai coconstellation, but with kids and a house to run and I see how much more simple it is to leave my stuff in soil 😂 your a scientist, this is awesome

[@escamilla30]

What fertilizer do you use for your plants that are in Soil?

[@a.c.h.camangon]

Ever since I started watching your videos, I've always been looking forward to hearing a leca drop somewhere on the floor 😂 ...and everytime it does, it cracks me up ✌️🤣 Kidding aside, thank you for always sharing your experience with us, Kevin! I always enjoy and learn a lot from your videos. 😁👍👍

[@tinamajors9786]

I love Hoyas, I have many Hoyas. I want to hear and learn about your Hoyas.

[@kevin.]

Okay! I'll do more of them ☺️💚 Thanks Tina!

[@tayloryetts2981]

Loved the breakdown on your nutrient solution! Thank you. I'm curious: Do you use any of these same components when you water plants in your aroid mix?

[@jennydrown742]

Omg this is my question i am trying to figure out and cant find anyone mentioning this 😢

[@namakemono3236]

that thai con is a stunner, a true beast!!! i recently got mine with 2 leafes and one about to unfurl and i cant wait til it gets biggerrrrr! I love these plant chore videos, very relaxing (to me lol)

[@kevin.]

Oh yay I'm glad! Can't wait for yours to be BIGGGG. it'll be a treat watching it grow 😊 thank you so much 💚

[@passionateplantperson]

Thank you Kevin! Very informative!!! And thank you for pointing out that it is okay to cut the roots! You make the best videos ❤️

[@mandalynfsu]

Future Kevin had me 😂. I love your mixture of different plants. I thought all strawberry shakes were hideous with their sick baby poop colored leaves, but you have been changing my mind with your gorgeous ones!

[@attackfox]

I have several of my Hoya living in hydrophobic conditions and I haven’t been sure if it’s the best conditions for them. Thank you for sharing!!

[@SamanthaJee]

Love this video! Thank you for teaching us about cutting the roots and feeling ok with a smushy root here and there ! Just had that problem today and you reassured me it was fine !

[@myrellard7274]

Great video! So helpful to see the process! And who ever said we don’t love Hoya?!?! I love Hoya!!!

[@mikedecem]

For everyone wondering : no you cant use CalMag with soft water version because soft water has a lot of CalMag already. And if you have hard water, DO NOT USE SOFTWATER at all :) Even hard water version is not supposed to be used with CalMag. Kevin should really check his water quality report and if there is more than 60mg of calcium, stop using additional calmag, you are just locking out magnesium and other nutrients like potassium.

[@melissagraham3750]

I love Hoya, keep showing them! I’m here for the hoyas ❤

[@Ginger_Odie]

Thank you Kevin 💚🪴🙌💯 so helpful and such a beautiful beautiful collection ❣️💚🙌

[@aidensiessmayer5615]

May i ask.. Do you use a diluted version of this for the soil plants?

[@xptsdamob2524]

G'day from Australia! Just wanted to tell you that you always make my day (or night like now) whenever I see you have a new video up! 🙂

Ohhhh that is so sweet 🥺 always wanted to visit Australia 💚

[@sherryporsch9349]

Lots of good info if anyone try’s Leca or Pon. Your plants are always amazing 💚

Thanks Sherry ☺️💚

Thank you Kevin, this was full of helpful information. I’m definitely a visual learner so seeing your process really locks it in for me 👍

[@kevin.]

Oh I'm glad Sherry ☺️

[@CeCee-no8bg]

Awesome content! I like Hoya plants and particularly like how you curl them around. I need to get some of the extra nutrients. The results over here have been consistently good, but I am ready to make them great!😊

[@REL2290]

Hi Kevin, I couldn’t find any links for the net pots that you use for the 3gal and 5 gal buckets you have your larger monsteras in. Would love to know where you got them, thanks!

[@thespacebehindmyeyes5110]

You've gotten me addicted to hoyas! Keep showing off your beauties 😍 we don't mind 🤤

[@kevin.]

Haha okayyyy 🤩💚 thanks 👍

[@peterlam1208]

Hello from Calgary. Love your videos! I have 95% of my plants in pon and leca as well. I am curious to know if you have noticed a difference in growth ever since you have doubled the nutrient solution concentration. I was considering doing that this summer but was nervous about burning the roots. My plants seem happy with the lower concentration. I also have a massive Thai with 30 inch leaves.

[@kevin.]

Heyyy ☺️ I haven't gone back down to the lighter concentration so it's hard to tell. I always say that if your plants are happy and they're still growing well, then why change. I think I might end up doing the lighter solution over the winter 🥶 I definitely think there's a chance I'm overdoing it 😅💚

[@ziurande]

Thank you Kevin.. This was so informative!

[@pmsydneytreesptyltd238]

Kevin!! Show us all the Hoya 🤣 who doesn’t love Hoya?? Loved this video and your more frequent content 🎉🎉

[@kevin.]

Aw yay thanks! 💚🤩

[@thaovu2070]

This might be a stupid question but can this solution also be used for the plants that are in soil media?

[@josiemojica3674]

You mentioned reservoir water should not be too hot…I am thinking about using a heat mat in upcoming months. Soil keeps roots warmer than in leca which is why I am considering. Do you think heat mat will be ok? It’s not burning hot just slightly warm.

[@marygorchidsmore2058]

Great video Kevin, thanks for sharing 👍! I k ow you said you don't do ppm, but have you ever used ppm meter? Also can't wait to see you do more orchid growing!

[@Dixiwonderlandyoutube]

You can only do this for leca hence hydroponics? You can't use this for regular aroid mix?

[@dtsolidum]

Would you use this for orchids too???

[@rafalz9275]

Hi:) please do note that tea spoons comes in different sizes, i have 2 ml ones for example, and they are like standard here in my country. I dont see 5 ml very often .

Hey serious question how do u know when to change the pot up grade the plant to a new pot ?? I always struggle with this thanks

[@Pottedplantsandcookingpots]

I thought I didn't like hoya, because it is so invasive when it grows crazy haha..I have bought one and now I have 8. More maybe......

[@courtneymoses6196]

Only now do I realize that the flora series has a hardwater version.

[@kevin.]

Oh! 💚

[@tanya.quintieri]

AHA! GOTCHA!! You’re calculating your dosage on 5 liters. But a gallon is just under 4 liters. So you are giving your plants about 20% more nutrients than the instructions say. And hence 20% more than I am. That explains a lot!!

[@stephenw.6588]

He’s Canadian. Likely calculated based on Imperial gallon (4.54 litres) 😊

[@tanya.quintieri]

@@stephenw.6588 Okay. But does the manufacturer do that, too? In Europe the manufacturer uses liters, obviously.

[@tanya.quintieri]

@@stephenw.6588 I suck at math, so I just role played with my hubby. Technically, Kevin’s solution would then be 20% weaker than mine, assuming that the instructions ate for US gallons and a teaspoon is actually 2 ml. I’m confused. The European bottle says 1 ml per liter for micro, 1.5 for bloom, 0.5 for flora, 2 ml for CalMag and 3 ml for Diamond Nectar.
