10cm of growth since March! 📈 Unpotting my Anthurium clarinervium today to transition it from LECA to a chunky soil mix and I am absolutely blown away by these roots! It has put on 10cm of new growth in just a few short months. There is nothing more satisfying than a perfectly healthy, thick root system. Time for its upgrade! 🪴
Ooo why are you going from LECA to soil? I’m intrigued.
1 Like Soil offers better temperature insulation to protect sensitive roots during chilly winter months.

0 Likes I like buying really young plants (a few centimetres big), in March and I find developing them in leca produces better roots over a 3/4 month period. It seems to work for me, but it's obviously dependent on each person's environment and place in the world.
