[@kspence5300]

“Oh, it’s bobbing!” lol. It’s the small things that bring us joy.

[@TheLecaQueen]

Exactly right!! I am so easy to please. I love to see the bobbing 😂❤

[@TajmToCook]

5:56 Wow, those roots are whiter than the fresh snow high in the mountains 😍

[@asomar31823]

I'm watching you from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I learned a lot, you're very good at explaining. Thank you.

[@TheLecaQueen]

Awesome, thank you!

[@ER-oo6vs]

so helpful Nora! I am glad to see you mix the pon/leca etc as I am a newbie to transitioning to soil free. My biggest challenge so far is pots! I have so many pretty😂 glazed ceramic pots with nursery pots inside and holes at the bottom. So I'm trying to re-work them for self-watering with a wick or reservoir🥴

Thank you! Love all the information you provide. I often rewatch your videos!💚

[@TheLecaQueen]

Glad you like them!

[@paulawilkinson6341]

Really enjoyed this video Nora . You do make this hobby so fun . I need to buy one them cloches and also the self watering pots . Thank u ❤

[@TheLecaQueen]

Thank you. It should be fun, otherwise what's the point!

[@sylviacahoon8571]

I enjoy this video very much 😊

[@TheLecaQueen]

I am so glad. Thank you.

Great video. I love eco pots. I like the texture. My 6” fluted cache pots fit them perfectly. Haven’t tried ones with water indicator yet.

[@TheLecaQueen]

Thank you so much. I have had the ecopots for a few years now. I am not sure if they still make them with the water level indicator anymore as I could not find them on their website. I only saw old stock from other online stores.

[@jorats]

Great video. I love those naked root pots. My peperomia red ripple likes it very much too. She's in pon.

[@TheLecaQueen]

They are just awesome right? I have a few plants in them and will probably do a video showing how they are doing.

[@jorats]

@@TheLecaQueen oh, I can't wait to see that video. I bought a hole bunch of them after I saw your video testing them out. So far so good!

[@GmamaGrowz]

2:45 Bamboo sticks get on my nerves too 😅 7:17 I'm diggN your Eco Pot 🪴 and the plants turned out beautifully! Yaaay bobbing! TFS!

[@TheLecaQueen]

Honestly, bamboo sticks just do my head in!!!

[@MaryAnnAndrew-z2v]

Thanks!

[@TheLecaQueen]

Thank you thank you thank you 😊

[@carolstuff]

Nicely done! Looking fwd to updates Nora; thanks Nora!

[@TheLecaQueen]

Thank you! Will do! Have I told you how much I appreciate your support? I love knowing you are somewhere out there wishing me well and I hope one day we can meet!

[@carolstuff]

@@TheLecaQueen Yes you have Nora! I appreciate the time, effort, stress, money & everything you do as a KZbin content creator…for free. I don’t take you for granted Nora; THANKS!

[@3SiameseCats]

Do you have any tips for cheap ceramic pots without holes that are good for moss poles? Or how to turn any pot with a hole into a pot that holds water? Also, I personally am a fan of the 6in diameter 5.5in tall nursery pots, but no one sells them cheap online (well, at least without shipping).

[@AmeldaEllis]

Thank you for this. I really needed this ❤

[@TheLecaQueen]

You are so welcome

[@edgarramirez-zw4dq]

I just bought these using your discount code! Can I use them with a wick?

[@TheLecaQueen]

Thank you. I guess you could but I think when you receive them you will see that you probably don't need to.

[@villettemaynor975]

Nora, do you recommend leca & pon mixed for an Alocasia Jacklyn?

[@LienSmoczyca]

I don't know why, but all my peperomias died. I even cut the bulb into pieces and tried to start over - and it worked! - it grew roots and some tiny leaves... but then it just died again :( . I would love to see the tutorial how to take a proper care of peperomias.

[@TheLecaQueen]

Did you watch all the way to the end?

[@LienSmoczyca]

@@TheLecaQueen Yes. But I wrote the comment halfway through the video, and then forgot to edit it, lol. Love your videos!

[@YolandaLeon-kg1tq]

Hello Nora! I have been following you for about 10 months. I did transition my plants to leca and some are doing great, but I have lost some during my journey,.. I am struggling to keep my money tree alive. Any suggestions for an specific pot to help this poor tree ????

[@TheLecaQueen]

Hello, thank you for the support. As you will know from my videos, keeping a plant alive and happy is a marriage of many things, not just the medium of the pot or the nutrient, but others things like light, humidity, temperature, pests etc. I would love to help, but the information you have provided is too general. Please hop onto my Facebook group and tell us all about your plant, how you take care of it, where it lives, what set up it is in and show us some pictures and we can go from there.

[@KylieFickell]

Ok so are the roots constantly sitting in water from the reservoir

[@TheLecaQueen]

Yes

[@gypsylee333]

Peperomias give me problems lol i have one sprig in just straight water cuz it almost died in leca.

[@TheLecaQueen]

They can be a bit problematic 😊
