LECHUZA PON Peat-Free Houseplant Potting Mix for Indoor Plants, Cacti and Succulents Soil Potting Compost 18L

Product Information

Effectively you can take the whole plant including the soil you have in the previous pot and plant it into the Lechuza planter and add in Lechuza Pon. These are my findings after using Lechuza Pon for years for my Monstera, Philodendron, Cacti, and Begonia plants. Pros At the beginning (first 3 weeks) water directly on the top of the pot into the Lechuza Pon as the roots need to grow first before they reach the water reservoir and spread

This will also help plants to develop stronger roots as the roots will be venturing into the potting mix in search of water. Where to Buy Lechuza Pon The best-known brand of Pon is undoubtedly Lechuza, but Pon is what's in the bag, which gets its name from 'Semi Hydro-PON-ics'. It's a popular 'remedy' for fungus gnats, just like Leca, but tends to be more user friendly than Leca for growing and propagating, and is used both added to potting mix, as well as by itself. Hvis du alligevel får problemer med mug, kan du sprøjte ovenpå ponen med lidt brintoverilte, skære ned for vandingen og ellers bruge en lille ventilator for at øge luftcirkulationen omkring planten. Hvor ofte skal jeg vande?

The other way Pon can be used is just mixed evenly in to soil or potting mix to make it heavier, airier and more free draining. The substance zeolite stabilizes the ideal PH balance for a healthy plant growth in your LECHUZA planter. Macro and micronutrients remain permanently. The LECHUZA plant substrate provides a balanced distribution of nutrients to the roots of your plant. Through this supply, the plant builds a consistent, compact root dispersion and can grow into a robust plant that will stay with you for a long time.

The LECHUZA plant substrate takes care of a balanced nutrient distribution in the root area of your planter. Through the ideal supply the plant builds a consistent, compact root dispersion and becomes a robust plant, that will stay with you for a long time.Two of the best ones on the market here in NZ are Dyna-Gro and GT (Growth Technology). For light-feeders and plants more salt- and pH-sensitive, like Orchids, Hoya and some Aroids, Dyna-Gro and GT are free of urea, and GT is also free of chlorides (the most common, highest-salt ingredient in most fertilisers), and is pH balanced. Both are superb. rule: keeping the plant in soil and adding pon within the drainage level, using a drainage barrier to keep the soil and pon separate. Spider Mites don't seem to care either way what the substrate is as their entire lifecycle can be completed on foliage. Thrips don't seem to care much either, however are much easier to treat with Pon or Leca. Whatever pest you have though, treatment is much easier for plants in Pon or Leca vs plants in organic mixes like soil or potting mix, as repeated drenches and showering don't have the same high risk of over-watering and root rot as plants in soil or potting mix. I will water the plant using the shower method in its existing media to start. Step 1: Clean the roots! Next steps is watering your newly potted plant. If you are using self-watering pots like the Lechuz ones I have, don’t fill the reservoir in the first couple of weeks. Just water like you’d normally do. This is because the roots of the plant need to grow into the reservoir. You can tell when it’s time to water your plant because the pon will slightly change the colour but you can also test the moisture in the pon with your fingers just like you’d do with soil.
