Yeah sure, put it in soil but make sure it stays wet for about 2 weeks so it can acclimate to the substrate. ### Katomarose님이 2026-01-20에 댓글을 남겼어요. Yes I definitely would. I would also water with superthrive and gently start introducing nutrients to it at a half strength rate especially if its been in water for a year. ### Random Strands님이 2026-01-20에 댓글을 남겼어요. Very chunky soil or it will die off. It will be so used to water for so long if there is not air pockets in soils your roots may rot away. ### Stephanie님이 2026-01-20에 댓글을 남겼어요. Thanks everyone for the help. I will try planting it in chunky soil and use superthive to help. I also use rain water and will keep the soil somewhat moist for a little while. ### Lynda님이 2026-01-21에 댓글을 남겼어요. Since it’s been in water for so long, why not try putting it in PON? I have over 30 plants in this substrate, and for the most part, I love it! It definitely lessons the work I would normally have with a plant that is in a soil substrate. Any more questions about switching to PON, just give me a holler! Good luck! #### Stephanie님이 2026-01-21에 답변했습니다. I've never done PON so I don't know anything about it. I would love any info you would be willing to share. Thanks ### Lynda님이 2026-01-21에 댓글을 남겼어요. First of all, go to YouTube, and find some videos on using PON. There are lots of them, and it’ll start you off in the right direction. Then you’ll need a self watering pot, which you can get on Amazon. I like the ones with the little windows in them, so I can see how much water is left in them, or the clear ones where you can totally see all the water in the bottom of the pot. Next, you need some PON, which will be your substrate, and that can be ordered online, as well. Look for the Lechuza brand, which is expensive, but if you use it for other plants, it won’t be as hard on your pocketbook. If you get that far, give me a holler, and I’ll help you out with any remaining questions you might have. I’m glad you’re thinking of using PON as an alternate method of keeping your plants healthy. Once you get it dialed in, I know you will just love it! Good luck! #### Stephanie님이 2026-01-21에 답변했습니다. Ok thanks I will do that. I also have this. Is it an ok brand or should I get what you suggested? ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/hi8Opg_kMjnbgPQssR93TpPbs7-T3H5T13eFpuMxzCw/0VFVsiF7QBa0jz61ihJq9A.webp?size=large) --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
