Soil Experiment & Some Plant Chores! (Mint Monstera & Burle Marx Flame Repot)

[@northernplantucky]

Great video🎉 experimenting with plants never stops. The only suggestion I would have is to tuck a little Moss around / underneath any of the nodes you have kind of floating above the leca. Definitely interested in the results of this experiment.

[@GreenChickGardens]

Is this to try and encourage more root growth from the stem and by the nodes?

[@northernplantucky]

@@GreenChickGardens yes exactly🤞🌱

[@violetmoon287]

Lechuza for the win! 🏆

[@GreenChickGardens]

We will see!

[@reginatebow57]

I think the spiritus sancti in pon will take off more quickly. Fun experiment!

[@GreenChickGardens]

Thanks, we’ll see!

[@Minnescaper]

I love Stratum for rooting cuttings! A lot of success with it in my grow bins.

[@GreenChickGardens]

Good to know! Have you used it for more mature plants or only for cutting/propagation?

[@Minnescaper]

@@GreenChickGardens just for cuttings. I also use it for growing out alocasia corms. I think mature alocasia would probably love a mixture of perlite and Stratum!

Love your content. I’m a bloke from Denmark, and have no one to exchange “experiments” with, so it’s nice to see :) You mentioned the blue greenish in the Pon, that’s Zeolite. The orange round things, is the slow release fertilizer. :) - and I’m curious to see, if the Monstera Mint cutting is going to survive without that much chlorophyll.

[@GreenChickGardens]

Hello! Nice to have you here, I’m glad I learned something today! And yes, we will have to see if we can get any green out of them. That’s something I’ve noticed a bit on my mint cuttings, the nodes tend to be much whiter with far less chlorophyll.

[@MrBBoedker]

@@GreenChickGardens I never had a Mint, so exciting to see how they behave :D and nice to see you love to try different things. I just transplanted a Rubber Tree in Pon/Leca mix today. Just because I never tried 😂

[@Naomi-kc7pd]

Nice video, I would love to see the results of your experiment.

[@GreenChickGardens]

You and me both! Hopefully we will in the coming months.

[@daniellegalvin6722]

Where do you get your self watering pots from? Love you videos!

[@GreenChickGardens]

From Amazon. There’s tons of choices!

[@AhmadAsrafHashim]

Do u keep the leca, stratum & pon in a water reservoir?

[@GreenChickGardens]

Yes! All three will be kept in a tray of water acting as the reservoir.

Fluval

[@GreenChickGardens]

I’m liking the fluval so far!

[@charlesnulud4510]

Do you have update on those with Leca? Are they better now after 2 months?

[@GreenChickGardens]

I was actually just thinking about it a couple of days ago! I will do a video in the next week or two on it! I wouldn’t say the experiment is done but, I’m starting to see a difference…

[@vixistixi]

I do think you should take the spiritus out the soil & repot back in the soil…eliminating a variable-then they’ve all been disturbed out their pots x

[@GreenChickGardens]

Wonderful idea! I will take out of the pots and do exactly as I did with the others to try and keep an even starting point. Good idea, thanks for mentioning.
