1 YEAR LECA UPDATE 🪴 Showing you every plant I have in LECA | Is it still worth it?

Can you believe it's already been a full year since I started using LECA for my plants?! At think at this point, it's a full blown obsession.
In this video I talk about the changes I've made since the last update video (nutrient ratio, watering schedule, how I get my plants into LECA), as well as show you every single plant I currently have in LECA. Some of the growth in the past six months is ASTOUNDING!!!

    you should try the pink Osmocote slow release fertilizer. I in sprinkle 5-20 little pellets, depending on pot size, into my leca when i’m repotting. osmocote is a complete fertilizer and the pink one also has micronutrients. you’ll never have to mix nutrient solution again.

    Good to know. I'm far too lazy to do this three-nutrient system. I've been using DynaGro Foliage pro for all my plants including anything I have in leca. But the pellets is also a great idea! Thanks.

    I grow most of my plants in a home mixed potting mix based on coco coir and pumice. I am experimenting with mycorrhizal fungi and it has been very successful so far. They come as a powder or liquid and they grow a beneficial mycelium that forms a partnership with the roots, trading nutrients for sugars produced by the plant. It's what happens in natural ecosystems and it forms the so called wood-wide-web in forests. Happy plants!

    I also take cuttings but I propagate in leca and it works really well. My plants were transferred this winter, not a smart move, but I only lost about three plants. Some of my phal orchids like leca and some began to rot. Now those are in water culture so I can check on the roots and are recovering nicely. I’m enjoying watching my plants growth in leca this spring. Thanks for your videos 🌱

    Yes, you will like Foliage-Pro. I've been using it for more than 12 years for all my plants. I've tried other fertilizers but always return to that one. It can be used for soil or semi-hydro so it's a multi-use product. Plus the bottle lasts forever. Let me know how it goes!

    Good luck with your Aglaonema Chocolate. I discovered mine had root rot from underwatering it. I'm still trying to stabilize it. I actually think I might have to downsize the pot a bit more. I had a terrible time propagating a couple of the stems that lost their roots. Hopefully it works for you! Also, I'm glad I'm not the only one that think the PPP has a weird growth patttern! Haha.

    I've transferred my manjula from soil to lecca but I only tapped the soil off, transferred, and allowed it to acclimate for 3-4 days with no water in a grown tent, then I'd add a little water and let it run through, drain, and once a week I'd water it but let drain through. After two weeks it developed water roots. I'd then use very diluted nutrient water but let it run through the drain so still no reservoir... A month after I started to leave a very small amount of nutrient water... The rest is history

Your videos make me feel like I'm in the same room learning from you :) I use aquarium water in my set up and haven't started feeding yet. What are the signs to look out for if my plants are nutrient deprived? Slowly transitioning plants to leca!

    Thank you!! The most obvious sign of lack of nutrients is when your plant loses a leaf every time it's trying to put out a new leaf. But also slow growth, and depending on what nutrient is lacking you can also get different kinds of yellowing leaves.
