Hiii April I would love to see a repotting video. You were the reason for me to switch to Pon.

[@aprilbrooks]

Coming right up! (In a couple weeks😉) 🌿🤍

Thanks girl!!!!!!! Jus what i needed! Now to get the courage to chop my monstera and prop for leca or my DIY PON. Have not decided yet 💚

[@aprilbrooks]

Do it! They grow roots so fast 🤗🌿

Hi hun love your method with water propagation in the glass jars if u don't mind me asking how do you put hole in the jars🪴💚thanks in advance.

[@aprilbrooks]

I drilled them with a diamond drill bit 🤗

[@d33g.96]

@@aprilbrooks ok perfect thank u so much💚

[@rebeccaparis6470]

Do you have an update on how the pon and leca poles have done? Super curious. Just getting into leca and pon myself.

[@aprilbrooks]

Do LECA on the bottom, moss on top. I’ve found that works best 🫶🏽🌱

[@mamalongsplants1559]

I use the same fertilizer. You like to propagate.Enjoyed. Mama Long 🙏🏾😇😘

[@anitajones7090]

How do you make your holes in glass containers? Also, I know one huge advantage to using Lecca or Pon is no fugus knats. Do you get any other pests, like thrips or meely bugs?

[@aprilbrooks]

Hi Anita! I drilled the holes with a Diamond drill bit, there are a lot of helpful tutorials here on KZbin 😊 for pests, sometimes I see tiny bugs in the reservoir or get the occasional spider mites! *knocks on wood* lol

[@rebeccaparis6470]

Do any of your plants in pon you let dry out for a few days or do you always like to keep some water in at all times? I'm just curious if they need an air break or constant moisture?

[@aprilbrooks]

Water at all times. 🪄

[@rebeccaparis6470]

@@aprilbrooks Thanks so much!

[@mamalongsplants1559]

Do they sell pon in the stores yet? Having a hard time finding any.Mama Long 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@aprilbrooks]

I don’t know but they have it on Amazon!

[@nancyennis2443]

Did you drill the holes in the glass jars?

[@aprilbrooks]

I use to and I like to use them! It’s just hard lol

[@thenicparker]

Might be a stupid question but how did you get the holes into the jars? I have so many jars I wanna reuse but I need holes in them 😢

[@aprilbrooks]

You have to drill them with a diamond drill bit!

[@thenicparker]

@@aprilbrooks oh sweet! My partner has one of those! Game changer! Thank you! I love collecting old jars for my leca plants but haven’t been able to figure out the drainage!

[@lavenderpurp6610]

Are those strings sitting on keca too?

[@charbar1360]

Why is there holes in the jars?

[@aprilbrooks]

To flush my plants 🌱
