Move Big Plants From Soil To Leca Without Killing Them

[@alexanderow1268]

THANK YOU, DEAR LECA Queen, another awesome video !!! 😍😍😍

[@TheLecaQueen]

Thank you Alexander 😊. Thanks for the support 🙏

[@pjaneheil]

Hello, I am so surprised on how well u explained these root systems and the new water roots, I've learned so much, You're a good teacher, keep teaching us ❤️❤️❤️

[@po.po.poquito]

Omg!! I just posted on Reddit to get info on my billietiae and atabapoense in leca and saw you were so highly recommended… and gah!!

[@TheLecaQueen]

🤣🤣🤣. I hope I did not disappoint.

[@po.po.poquito]

@@TheLecaQueen not at all!! I love your content!! I’ve learned so much already, thank you!!

[@ConnieP92]

Oh Nora, you made me laugh in this one (LECA going everywhere! HAHA). I'm SO motivated to become the leca 'princess' 🤣 And I'm really loving the plastic backing idea. Found out my local Officeworks has the A2 Polypyrene sheets so will get moving with those and with transitioning to leca. I love how cleaner LECA is and how fabulous the GT products are making our plants look. Can't wait to hear that Root Zone is available 👏 Grateful for your efforts and time 🙏

[@TheLecaQueen]

I'm so glad! Leca does go everywhere 🤣🤣

[@maricarol85]

Amazingly gorgeous! I am planning on transitioning to Leca, starting with my smallest ones first to see how it goes. My monstera deliciosa will probably be the last one, as it is the biggest. 😉 Thanks so much for this video, as I am sure I will need it when the time comes.😊👍

[@ekp-g205]

Brilliant. ❤Makes so much sense to do the long method

[@TheLecaQueen]

Glad you think so!

[@ushaach]

Your plants are so gorgeous❤...shows all the knowledge, love and effort you put in. I have used your leaf shine and pest solution recipes and it is effective. Now am slowly trying to transition some plants to leca and here i am again going through all your leca transition videos. You speak with so much experience and confidence that one feels absolutely sure of trying what you suggest. And you share all your knowledge and do not hold anything back. Really appreciate ❤

[@dillonkentworth6718]

I love that you have labeled your Special Sauce bottle 😂

[@TheLecaQueen]

🤣🤣🤣

[@beverlysullivan1427]

I just found your channel. You are fabulous 👌. I love it because you go directly on what to do, then you do it. You talk about the plants and not everything else. I am a new subscriber. 😊😊

[@TheLecaQueen]

Welcome 😉 🙏

[@alvarezhector9]

What did you put on the water

[@mikedecem]

And now question is...can you grow plants in leca forever like in soil?

[@jujubee7351]

Great video, where can I purchase the special sauce?

[@biancacurtis5201]

Hello do you do this with your vigger plants right away? Or do you allow them to acclimate to your space first?

[@vanessabezzant]

How exactly do you determine if the roots are suspicious? I've always just figured if they are brown or soft to touch/mushy, they are bad, but watching this video, particulary the portion in which you cut off bad roots, may be realize I need to get a better understanding of healthy and non healthy roots. As always, thank you so much for your amazing content. I love all your videos and learn so much from you! Thank you thank you!

[@TheLecaQueen]

Hello, anything that is mushy or soft certainly needs to go. But I also just err on the side of caution. If any root even looks at me sideways it has got to go! But in all seriousness roots that look darker and not looking like the others I cut, but as I am now loving this no roots thing with my transitions, it has now taken that problem off my hands.

[@lilyt5855]

​@@TheLecaQueendo you mean that you now cut all the roots off?

[@marvap8105]

Thank you again, I always enjoy watching you, I have learned so much about leca. Thanks

[@TheLecaQueen]

Marva p Thank you! I appreciate the support.

[@doretheawatson4323]

Very beautiful

[@melanieklarofficial]

If I have a plant that was in soil and has root rot. Should I do the long method?

[@melanieklarofficial]

Do you soak them in diluted peroxide?

[@phylisrobinson8654]

Thank you for your channel! I love your video, and it is a pleasure to watch, but it has reignited my plant hobby. Question: Do you think the plastic back moss pole is best?

[@TheLecaQueen]

Thank you for your kind words and for watching and subscribing, much appreciated! Not necessarily best, I just prefer it because it keeps moss moist longer and directs roots, best is too strong a word.

[@wanderotter4667]

I have watched all your video's and transferred most of my plants to leca this past year. Now my huge monstera deliciosa has a gnat infestation in the aroid mix it's in. I want to transfer it to leca, but am scared, because it's so big. I already got a hydro pot for it (30 cm). Do you think I can safely transfer it to leca? It's my favorite plant with a lot of leaves with fenestrations and holes.

[@katherinesmith4658]

Thanks for your video! Can you please tell me what temperature you set your heat mat at?

[@TheLecaQueen]

Mine is not a fancy one, it only has on and off!

[@jillianleblanc9370]

Hi my name is Jillian and I want to start Locker in some plants but I would like to know what it is you put in the water have a blessed day

[@Numplha]

Thanks, so easy to do!

[@TheLecaQueen]

Indeed! And thank you!

[@angelarhinebarger474]

My plants always get root rot when I’ve tried leca the bottom of the leca pot always stays wet while the middle to the top are dry what is it I’m doing wrong

[@TheLecaQueen]

I am so sorry to hear that. I would like to know 2 things: Do you soak your leca for 24hours or more before use? What kind of reservoir do you have?

[@erikacameron1955]

I haven’t had root rot yet but l have the same with the capillary action of the leca, nice and wet in the reservoir but drier to bone dry at the top. All my leca is soaked prior to use. I have started to try to raise the humidity level by using a small humidifier nearby. Perhaps this will help the leca work better.

[@zz-uv9yw]

Can this be done in colder/darker months (like fall/winter)?

[@TheLecaQueen]

Indeed it can, always better in the growing season though but it can be done anytime.

[@zz-uv9yw]

@@TheLecaQueen awesome, thank you.

[@blinkitphotography]

With your leca pole do you get issues with gnats and algae?

[@TheLecaQueen]

I do have algae sometimes, gnats not really. Check out my latest Q & A video where I talk about Algae on moss poles.

[@rozalinkie]

Shame we can't get the Clonex solution here in the UK, I'll look for some alternatives. :)

[@theresajustice2116]

What again is your “ special sauce”? Inquiry minds want to know!!

[@TheLecaQueen]

Special sauce is Clonex Clone Solution and root zone 👌 root zone will be available next month.

[@theresajustice2116]

@@TheLecaQueen Is Root Zone only available thru you? If so, how do you let us know how to purchase? I am new to your videos, did lecca a few years ago, learned a lot watching you, and yikes! I did it wrong then!!! Glad I found you!!!

[@arc0330]

​@@TheLecaQueen is it a 50/50 mix? What are the ratios? Add that to water? Also can you use this to propagate cuttings?
