How to create a DRIER SET UP with LECA & SELF - WATERING | #Cattleyaschilleriana
#Cattleyaschilleriana #SemiHydroponics #leca
Sounds like an oxymoron? Drier self watering? What does that even mean? Some orchids are known to grow well with a wet / dry cycle between waterings. This is not something the self watering set up does. The roots are always in a wet environment, because ... its self watering and leca should not dry out or else it looses it's wicking efficacy. Wicking can be restored if the pot were to go completely dry but the leca can desiccate the roots in the pot, so it is not advisable to let the leca dry out for that reason. In this video, I see that my #Cattleyaschilleriana was absolutely not happy with the climate in the pot, so I am tweaking the set up with leca, to create a 'drier' climate.
I really appreciate the fact that you took the time to watch my video. I am very open to any comments or questions, this video may have brought up.
