LECHUZA PON Peat-Free Potting Compost for All Indoor Plants, 6L

I’ve moved my entire Alocasia collection to Lechuza PON because of a fungus gnat problem, and I’ve never been happier with the results. It retains moisture really well while still providing excellent aeration, and my Alocasias have never looked healthier. The quality of the PON is excellent too. Since switching to Lechuza PON, I haven’t seen a single fungus gnat.

I purchased the 6l bag. A great substrate. My Alocasias absolutely thrive in it. I use in self watering pots which I find helpful as I am definitely an over waterer. I love how easy it is to use, that it comes with fertiliser in and is reusable. I haven't found it too dusty, however I do rinse before use even though it is not necessary. Excellent quality. I will continue to use for all my plants.

I bought this after someone on Reddit recommended it for my sickly alocasia zebrina reticulata, it's made a huge difference. After a couple of weeks in pon he put out a new, glossy beautiful leaf.I have now put all my other plants in Pon. Monsters and philodendrons love it, peace lilies are no longer drama queens.I recently bought a couple of calatheas and so far they are doing okay too. I've even put a ficus benjamina in one - so far so good.I haven't given the plants a reservoir yet, I tried putting a spider plant into Pon with a reservoir and it rotted. They definitely need time to convert over and develop water roots. I top water about once a week then drain off any excess from my self watering pots. I shall try with a reservoir in a couple of months.This said, cuttings rooted in water are just fine with a reservoir.

As described, but be careful when opening as bag will already be open and upside down in box when you open box.

Brought to replace/chage older compost in Lechuza Balconera planters. Happy with product

Use as indoor potting mix, good drainage and moisture retention. Good for transitioning plants into hydroponics. Very expensive product.

Always struggled with alocasias in the past. After a few attempts in soil, I tried Lechuza Pon and so far, I am seeing new growth which looks promising!

Works perfect for my plants.. Great value .. Healthy roots .Plants are loving life..

Helt fantastiskt att få levereras till dörr. Pon är perfekt för mi a självvattnande krukor. Synd att den inte gick att köpa fler gånger.

​Ho acquistato questo substrato Lechuza Pon con un obiettivo preciso: far germogliare tre semi di avocado, notoriamente sensibili ai ristagni e al marciume radicale se piantati nella classica terra.​Come si può chiaramente vedere dalla sequenza fotografica che ho allegato (dalle prime radici fino allo sviluppo completo delle piante), il Pon si è rivelato un substrato miracoloso.​Il mio consiglio per l'uso: per ottenere il massimo della gestione idrica, vi consiglio caldamente di abbinare questo substrato ai vasi Lechuza della linea Color. Questa accoppiata è eccezionale perché la struttura minerale del Pon fa da conduttore naturale per capillarità direttamente dal fondo del vaso, permettendo alle radici di assorbire l'umidità necessaria in totale autonomia e senza il bisogno di stoppini.​I punti di forza riscontrati sul campo:​Drenaggio e Ossigenazione: La struttura granulare e minerale non si compatta mai. Questo permette alle radici di respirare costantemente e all'acqua in eccesso di defluire, eliminando al 100% il rischio di muffe o marciumi.​Nutrienti bilanciati: Essendo pre-fertilizzato, ha fornito ai germogli tutto il nutrimento necessario per i primi mesi, garantendo una crescita vigorosa e foglie di un verde intenso e sano.​Pulizia e riutilizzo: Rispetto al terriccio tradizionale, non sporca, non attira i fastidiosi moscerini dei funghi ed è incredibilmente pulito da gestire in casa o sul balcone.​Per chi ama la propagazione o ha piante delicate in casa, questo substrato non è solo un'alternativa alla terra, ma un vero e proprio upgrade prestazionale. Consigliatissimo.

Oh my gosh I love this stuff so much the color is so beautiful in my planter pots the size of the bag is really a good size it allowed me to repot about 70 of my plants all in various sizes from 4 in to 8 in pots. Functionality is amazing all my plants are thriving. It provides awesome drainage this is something I had to learn on my own as a new user of pon, but this is the semi Hydro medium meaning you have to leave water in it at least halfway. Other than that little learning curve it's very easy to use and you get a good amount for your money. But don't buy it when it's $100 or more wait till it gets back in stock and you can get it for $29 and free shipping like I did. I'm glad I bought four bags when I I first ordered because I did not know how big the bags were. I got another bag of 7 lb and it was literally a 1 gallon Ziploc bag. So I bought four just to make sure. It's got slow release fertilizer in it already and you don't have to rinse it before using it's already ready.

Tengo decenas de plantas y hasta ahora he pasado unas 18 a Pon (previamente estaban en sustrato orgánico). De momento la experiencia es muy buena. Es el único medio en que han sobrevivido las alocasias. Algunas ventajas que veo:- No pudrición de raíz porque es un sustrato muy aireado y no te pasas con el riego.- El autorriego o reservorio es muy cómodo, sobretodo si tienes muchas plantas y te vas de vacaciones.La he utilizado con monsteras, singonios, pothos, alocasias, calatheas y de momento todas están muy contentas. Las fertilizo con fertilizante inorgánico líquido y muy diluido. Al principio la planta pasa por un periodo de adaptación que puede ser más o menos duro, pero en general después se recupera. Es un sustrato caro, pero construir un sustrato de calidad ( tierra+ perlita+ vermiculita+ fibra de coco etc etc etc) también lo es.

Great
