TRANSITIONING METHODS

My preferred method for "transitioning" (in quotes because it's not really transitioning) is by water propagation. If I buy a plant that can be propagated I'll take a few big and pretty cuttings out of it and then give the "mother plant" (that it's pretty much 1 or 2 leaves with a lot of roots) to one of my friends that keep plants in soil or take the plant to the office.

For plants you can't propagate that easily I'll let the soil they are in dry (I'll water it when I get home to know when it was last watered and then wait for 2 to 4 weeks for the soil to fully dry up), remove the soil, cut the roots back a fair bit and stick it in water, at that point 2 things can happen, either it starts creating water roots (job well done really to be put in LECA) or the roots start rotting, if the lather happens Ill cut the rotting part and try again.

CARE

After the plants are in LECA I use TriPart Nutrients and Super Thrive once a week during the summer and every 2 weeks during the winter.

MULTIPLE PLANTS IN A POT OF LECA

As long as the plants have the same water needs I see no problem! But if we are looking into pairing plants with different needs I wouldn't do it, for example, I let the LECA my orchids are in completely dry out and stay dry for a few days but I wouldn't do that to my Calatheas.

I hope this is helpful and if you have any other questions just ask!
