Great video!!! As a new Thai Con Mom, I appreciate this information!!!💚🌱💚 Mine is still in the soil that I purchased it in. I want to move it to PON soon but I’m scared to disturb her.🤷🏾♀️
Absolutely loving your channel - inspired to pot up my first 10-ish plants in leca last weekend, thank you! One big area of confusion for me though - grow lights. What can be used, how to get best bang for budget? Lots of big investments on the market, and what looks like trash on amazon/temu - can you advise how can we decide the best for our homes and plants?
Thank you and all the best with your leca journey. Grow lights is an interesting subject. A few issues to consider, what your budget is and what look you are going for. Other issues like timers, replacement can come into play here as well. You can get good quality grow bulbs only that you put into a stylish lamp, you can get stand-alone grow lights. From what I gather, there are a lot of very good quality options out there now that do not cost an arm and a leg and most really do a good job. What I advise is getting a light meter so you can actually measure how much light your plant is getting and help you decide the distance between your plants and the grow light. Happy planting!
I got a rooted thai constellation top cutting a few months ago (like 3-4) and I've put it in pon, but it hasn't grown any new leafes yet. From what I could find online thats kinda normal, but could anyone confirm that?
Hey there! I had mine for at least 5 months before it finally sent out a new leaf. Since then, she has sent out 2 more, with a new leaf about to unfurl right now. Yours will too. Just keep watering carefully (as and when needed, do not allow its roots to sit in water), being mindful of rootrot.
I love your videos!! I have question: How you change the fertilizer in the reservoir and how you rinse your very big plants? Is this a challenge? (Only big plants)😊
Thank you. I take my big plants outside of into the bath or shower to flush them when I need to. When changing the nutrient solution I simply have a bucket or plant that I place the plant on, I rinse out the reservoir and put fresh solution then put the plant back. Hope that helps.
