OMG just what i was looking for!! I am new to leca....going from soil directly to leca has made me lose some plants....but cuttings growing in water, have done well. moving forward, due to your presentation, i shall put ALL my plants in root solution water prior to putting them into leca. Cant thank you enough!!

@irairod5160 Год назад

I wanted to share something that you've inspired and that IS WORKING amazingly well! Trying to replicate your Long Method, I started my plants in a nutrient solution of rain water, Clonex, and a water-soluble root stimulator. But here's a tweak I made that I believe has exponentially increased the chances of saving my rotting Alocasias: Once I saw new roots developing, I started adding Lechuza Pon (is all I have) to the container. Every few days, I freshen the nutrient solution and add a bit more of the substrate. Little by little, the ratio of liquid solution to rocky surround has decreased, and the plants are now at a height in the container in which the roots are no longer fully submerged---the pon is actually wicking the nutrient up to the plants, as it should, and the roots are acclimatized and functioning in a healthy, efficient way. It took about 5-6 weeks altogether, but with this long and steady approach, I've been able to heal the root rot my Alocasias were succumbing to, and I'm getting new leaves even while I'm still in the middle of winter! What do you think? Would it be wise to experiment with other types of plants? I really think starting in all hydro and slowly increasing the amount of substrate makes for a gentle-but-effective transition! If you try it my tweak, please let me know how it works for you. I appreciate all you share and all you've taught "us", your audience!

@graceakagrace Год назад

Great idea!!! I'm curious w/a few follow-up questions pls: After how many weeks did you start adding PON pls? Which water soluble root simulator did you use too? Did you experience any leaf drop?

@irairod5160 Год назад

@@graceakagrace Roots starting forming around week 4 in rain water plus Clonex, so that's when I started adding pon. On week 5, I switched to rain water and Bonide 412 Root n' Grow Stimulator. No more Clonex. Yes, there was leaf drop, of course. That's what Alocasias do. They look like they're going to die, and just when you're ready to give up and toss them in the trash, they say, "Just kidding! I'm gonna grow now." They will look marvelous for a year, just long enough for you to feel confident, and then they will drop all but 1 leaf and put you through the rigmarole all over again.

Your video is very detailed and easy to understand. I love how you explain "why" you need to do certain things. I just started experimenting with LECA and so far I am failing all except one. I was ready to quit but watching your video made me want to keep trying. I am mainly trying with cuttings but maybe I didn't wait long enough for the roots to grow in water. I have more cuttings in water, I will be patient and follow your method!

I'm so living for your videos, right now, Nora. Who knew all of these plants we have in our collections could be so resilient to this transformation. BTW, I've seen my mom propagate succulents straight in water, living in the house. Maybe try an Aeonium urbicum?... it's a compact, crawler variety with a large rosette. I excited to see what you put into LECA next!!

This is how I moved my 4ft, very bushy rubber tree to LECA!! Just stuck it in nutrient water! I didn’t even lose any roots or leaves! Some of the top ones did droop significantly and due to the trunk being woody, they’ll never be so uptight again but I think it looks better lol.

I've got 2 more plants which are ready to go into the leca (I think). Hopefully, I get the hang of semi hydroponics, and these do better than the first two.

@lilcranked 10 месяцев назад

I've always been curious about plants growing in water. I've made a list of houseplants that are not toxic to cats because i have 2 fur babies.. I'll be working my way down the list of experimenting with your methods, the first one on the list is watermelon peperomia couldn't find a single video on it for the life of me BUT i got reaaal lucky finding one of your videos on that plant. I'm glad ive stumbled upon your channel because of my curiosity. I've just purchased growth technology root zone and clone solution. Next is a trip to bunnings for some leca. I wanted to do leca and plant all in one vase/pot but having two compartments with the holes really makes more sense i suppose for the flush then dry and special sauce refresh. I mean i guess i could try both ways start out experimenting. The worst part is waiting for all the materials now haha. Keep up the good work 🤙🏽

@TheLecaQueen 10 месяцев назад

Hello!!! Welcome 😉 🙏. So glad to have you here. I know you will love leca. Happy to help if you have any questions. I regularly do Q & As so make sure to check my community tab for requests for questions. After you are done experimenting, I recommend buying a bigger bag of leca from a hydroponics shop, it is more economical.

@TheLecaQueen Год назад

Thank you for watching. About the pH, look to be honest, I try not to overthink it! There are so many scientific reasons why what I am doing should not work but the whole point of this for me is for this to be as easy as possible so if I need to be doing more than what I already doing then it is not for me. That is not to say you should not do it, I encourage you to do it if you want to. For me, that is in the too-hard basket. If my plants don't like it they will tell me. Not very helpful I know...😁 Plus also, my premixed solution never lasts that long! Too many plants, in fact my problem is making enough. I now make about 50L of solution if I am changing solution for everyone!

I went to my local nursery today to see if I could find something comparable to the growth technology since I live in the US and I thought it was an only Australian company. It just so happened that my local store had it, and Mike who works there… I love talking with him, he says he’s been using it for 20+ years and loves it! He didn’t realize when I came in asking about the product which one it was. Only thing they didn’t have was the foliage focus. Also, I shared your page with a customer who saw me buying leca and a few orchid pots. And… it’s definitely a Caladium Hilo, not Alocasia!

@katiecora7727 2 года назад

Maybe I should have done that. I bought all of your supplies you use and followed your step by step guide and started putting a few plants in LECA at a time. I noticed my silver sword wasnt looking too good tonight. I switched it Saturday. I watered the moss pole and added some more solution/water mix to the cache pot. The plant looked dehydrated 😔. I hope it bounces back because I grew that from a baby to a beautiful full specimen. Im not discouraged yet just hopeful I don't have a lot of plants die lol

I am sorry to hear that. But you have to stay the course. You will be a better plant parent for it!

@Malissa7 2 года назад

Hello Nora 👋👋👋👋 When you make the solution, are you saying it's only solution with no water added at all or is it mixed with water?

@TheLecaQueen 2 года назад

Mixed with water.

Any recommendations if we can’t get growth technology? I currently have an indoor fertilizer by Jacks and superthrive foliage pro.

Will it be ok to use just the clonex clone solution until the root zone becomes available to purchase, or do you recommend another additive? Thank you so much for all of your videos, I am learning a great deal 😊

@TheLecaQueen Год назад

Yes, absolutely! I used CCS alone for a long time. It works beautifully!

Do you have any advice in transferring a plug plant into semi hydro? I have a beautiful lemon lime maranta that I purchased a few weeks ago and I can’t find any info online whatsoever on converting to semi hydro. I’m assuming I would need to remove the plug.

@TheLecaQueen 2 года назад

I almost always get very small plants nd they have plug. I simply remove them from the plug very gently, it helps to use a house and a relatively high pressure setting and then put the plant in leca or nutrient solution.

Nora, question/comment. I have a ficus I e had in solution for a few weeks now and it doesn’t seem to be growing water roots though it’s still alive. Any suggestions?

@TheLecaQueen 2 года назад

Have you tried a rooting hormone? I would try that. Some plants take a really long time to root so if it is still alive fabulous!

@@TheLecaQueen I didn’t. I will try that. I went ahead and put it in leca. It’s still alive at the moment. Just not really growing.

How long are they in the solution before moving into leca

@TheLecaQueen Год назад

It depends on how much the water roots have grown. Some plant roots grow faster than others so hard to give a firm time period. I always look for sizeable secondary roots. If I am not sure I leave it there for a few more weeks.

I hear they say the roots need oxygen and to buy an air pump. How are you able to completely submerged the roots? Are they still getting oxygen? Thank you!

@katiecora7727 2 года назад

I hope you don't mind me answering but yes the water will have its own supply of oxygen but if you add the air stone that will enhance the oxygen exchange and be even more of a benefit.

@TheLecaQueen 2 года назад

I do not mind at all, and you are right. I do have a short where I show how I make my solution and it sometimes involves and air stone. Check it out here ru-vid.comXZzeWBQkt9M
