# Wondering if anyone has grown Plumeria in Leca? Picked up this…

Wondering if anyone has grown Plumeria in Leca? Picked up this variegated one today. Wasn’t cheap and can’t find another one in the country so didn’t want to take the chance. But I prob will… lol

Jealous! I just recently saw these. I haven't tried my plumeria in leca. Though I have seen people keep them in that or stratum. I just haven't followed along to see how it was going. They do love to try to rot here. I may try this, maybe pon though. I got mine from Hawaii, so I was worried about taking them out of high nutrient soil. But a pon mix with stratum may be less of a shock.

I really must like this plant cause I’m having second thoughts. I’m going to search for a non variegated way cheaper one that I can experiment with in Leca.  
Good to hear from you!!! Hope you have a nice weekend!!!

Sometimes experimenting on less attached is way easier!! You'll have to let me know how it goes. When i make up Pon imma move mine over I think. I hope you have a good weekend as well!

Hey there, I didn’t even know this group existed, until I thought I was brilliant, and suggested one to Planta…🤪! Are there other groups that aren’t listed in the normal players you always see? TIA!

#### Wolfen 🐺 replied on 2025-03-25

If you go into groups, and at the top it has Feed, or Explore. I think the explore has the list of them all

TXS for the info! BTW, Amazon has a sale on FLUVAL STRATUM; it’s almost 50 percent off! It’s probably a bigger bag than I want to begin with, but would it be useful for you? Also, can you tell me exactly how many uses you have for fluval? There’s no expiration date on it, so if I used enough of it, this would be a really good deal, don’t you think? TIA!

TXS for the post! I sure wish I could split this stuff with you; I’m still not understanding the uses for fluval, so if you have any more comments, I’d love to hear them!

#### Wolfen 🐺 replied on 2025-03-26

Hahaha true, i could just send you the 1 part you need lol. I just look at it like perlite really. Whether I'm using it straight or mixing it in something

#### Lynda replied on 2025-03-26

Do you mix fluval into the substrates of all your plants, just for GP?
