Any tips with using leca for orchids? I somewhat understand how to transition the plant but unsure of the watering needs after.

    I haven’t tried leca for orchids but I’ve seen YouTube videos where they do. I think most people just keep a small reservoir since orchids like to be on the drier side. I have 3 orchids in pon (no slow-release fertilizer) and I just water as normal, every week and a half or so. No reservoir since pon holds a lot of water

      I added the reservoir, just not sure how deep to make it. The roots are on the short side and I didn’t go with a clear container. Only doing one, so it will be an experiment.

      Yeah I would just try a small reservoir, so less than 1/3rd of the way up the pot
