Up early straining all the dust particles from my Chunky Aroid Mix. Hopefully my girls will love it ☺️

I haven’t gotten into making mixes. Can you explain why you strained it?

I actually bought the chunky potting mix already together. The bags that’s I’ve been getting will have a lot of the dust particles which can cause wet zones. It’ll trap moisture and Monstera roots don’t like to stay wet or moist. I hope this helps ☺️
