Im thinking about planting a couple Alocasias in leca. Does anyone have tips about growing them in leca such as fertilizing, how to transfer into leca, how to set up leca etc? Ive heard of the NSW setup so if anyone knows about that please let me know too.
I know you’re supposed to soak the leca for about 24 hours before use, then put a few in the bottom, add your plant, cover the roots with leca and then put in water, but don’t fill the vessel all the way up, only about a third of the way. And change the water weekly to avoid algae growth. Just the basics!

Rinse and drain your Leca until the water runs clear. Soak 24 hrs. You need to use a net pot and reservoir that should have nutrients. I use Dynagrow foliage pro and dynagrow Pro tekt. Also check your ph and adjust with ph up or ph down accordingly. I suggest you watch some videos on you tube. Leca can be tricky!
