Wow experience is a great teacher. I don’t think anyone here had ever explained as clearly as you have. You should have more subscribers. Good video! Keep it up.

This was very helpful, I am swapping plants over to pon with self-watering containers and was unaware I needed to top water for the first few months. This saved me a ton of heartbreak, thank you!

I am new to pon and this has been the most informative video I’ve watched. I am so glad you made it because now I feel much more comfortable switching my Hoyas over to Pon. Thanks so much for making this.❤

Very good video, thanks. I don't get why there are so few views. I came across so many awful videos with many more views before I found this one.

Great video! Thank you for creating such a thorough pon resource!

This is a very needed video. Thank you. I just saw some posts by people that were upset about this substrate because they lost plants. They could have watched this video!

Thank you for sharing your experience. I’ve been researching over the weekend but I have many questions left unanswered. You’ve addressed all of it in your video.

Hi Fonnie! First time here, WOW! I truly learned a lot from your Vid!!!! Sorry to hear you've been sick with Covid😞 glad you are on the Mend😊 You are AWESOME! Informative! Without the Flash and dropping the F-bomb. Thank you Fonniie💚

Thank you for taking the time to create this video! It is very helpful. 😊

This is so thorough. The best explanation in each topic. Bravo! We appreciate it a lot!!! I haven’t watch this video before because I wasn’t considering lechuza pon before. But now I do and I’ve watched many videos since last night and just finished watching your video this morning and I’m telling you this is the BOMB!

The absolute best video on pon transfer. Honestly. The best. Thank you ❤

This video came out at just the right time for me! I'm ordering my first ever lechuza planter

It was hard to find info about Pon! Thank you so much! I am from Mes Zealand. I have been wanting to learn more about Pon and your video was so helpful and informative. Not many people know much about Pon. I’m excited to transition my plants from soil to Pon for the same reason as you 😊

Many thanks, you've made things much clearer for me as the whole home plant growing thing is a completely new venture for me. Great video👍🏻

this is an excellent video! Exactly what I’ve been looking for. I’ve been so deeply considering switching my plants over. Thank you for all of the information. I hope your plants of continue to thrive. 🥰

Great job

That was so educational! Thank you so much for sharing your experience and knowledge! 😀

Just got my Lechuza-Pon in the mail and this was very informative.💚🌿

Love it 😍

Thank you so much for this video! I’ve been looking everywhere for more information on lechuza pon. You answered all of my questions 😊

Thank you so much for this video. You have answered all my questions about using Pon.

This is best lechuza pon video on KZfaq! Thanks for all the info😊

Amazingly complete video. No questions left unexpressed and the basis of your answers was clearly laid out. Thank you so very much.

This is the video I needed! Thank you ❤

Very good detailing video I come across! Thank you for sharing!

Great info. I collect what I consider simple….Hoyas, succulents, sansevieria etc. My biggest struggle is small leaf Hoya…and dischidia. Im going to wade in given all this sharing of your knowledge. Thank you!

you are an amazing content creator. I could sit and listen to your voice all day. you're doing great.

Great video to get us started! We’re ordering our Lechuza Pon and containers tonight. Thanks from S. Georgia 😊

I am so happy I found your links Fonnie. Love your way of teaching, I sure will look for this Lechiza pon. I will try with propagation first. You have lovely high ceilings, and awesome light through your windows.

Thank you soooo much for sharing this info about pon! This helps me very much! ✌🏼💚🪴

Thank you so much! I went searching everywhere. Even on Lechuza’s own website for a good month and you had the BEST information. Im glad on my purchases now and this answers questions that I had on plants I just transitioned…. Thanks again!!!

This is an excellent video! Thank you!

Great video Fonnie. I have all my plants in Pon and I’ve also successfully grown from seed in Pon 😊

Such an awesome video, very informative and great examples and variety of pon conversions. So helpful, thank you ❤😊

great comprehensive video. Gonna make the convert to pon soon!

I am making the switch from soil to pon for the first time. Your video was so detailed and concise, I found it very helpful. The main reason for the switch, my Hoya's growth has stunted. I feel pretty positive that the pon will change this.Thank you for all this wonderful information. New subscriber! 💚

I created a very nice DIY Pon blend at home, but experience sure is key for these things, and I can already tell your videos are going to enlighten me further! Thank you! And all of your plants look great…! 😊

Fonnie, I’m enjoying your content very much! You’ve got a soft, bright, calming presence. Sub’d 💜

Fantastic video. You are awesome.

Loved, loved watching your video! It was so informative and so well explained! Thank you!😊💚

This was suuuuper useful!! Thank you!! Been looking for this information and couldn’t find!! Thanks again! Great video :)

Beautiful plants 💗

Thank you so much for a great and very educational video!! I learned ALOT! 🥰🥰

The reason you have to remove all soil is not because the roots dont get water. Its because lechuza is airy and even if its evenly wet the roots get oxygen. Soil is too dense and if its wet all the time roots just rot in it. So in short if you keep your lechuza wet, the leftover soil will be soaking and rot the roots

Excellent video. Thank you. I'm just learning. You answered so many questions . Great

Btw, that’s a good point about Pon as a soil substitute vs. for semi-hydro (with a reservoir); so many people you’ll see, online, will ask “how do you grow succulents in semi-hydro?” …and I’m not including Hoyas in that, as they’re more of a tropical ‘succulent’ plant, some less than others, but none are quite close enough to surviving with benign neglect, in my experience. They need water and adequate conditions. I have learned that there is one thing with succulents in semi-hydro… …you CANNOT have a reservoir for succulents! And definitely no reservoir for a cactus!! I know some people claim to have success with it, but I’d imagine it only works with certain species, preferably under STRONG lights (or outdoors). More water means more sunlight will be needed, just as a plant baking in full sun will need irrigating more often. To successfully grow succulents in semi-hydro, you have to re-think whatever you currently know about semi-hydro, LECA, etc. This is where Pon comes in for me. It is more beneficial than LECA for succulent plants. The irony is that succulents and cacti will form roots at any chance they can, even if a cutting is laying out on a table! Most people who have them know this. If you lay a cactus cutting on the ground, it will immediately start feeling the ground and eventually, you won’t be able to lift it as it’s rooted. They’re some of the easiest plants to get to root. They’ll even root in plain LECA, but over time, it’s not substantial enough. And a reservoir would be certain death to the plant eventually, as they can’t have constant, steady wet feet. Pon is the perfect option for succulents as you can ‘adjust’ or tweak the typical semi-hydro method for them, such as give certain species more water than others. But having a water and nutrient reservoir isn’t as needed (if at all) with Pon because it’s a smaller particle, but still properly ventilated. It’s negligibly less aerated than LECA-though not in a bad way! Pon is still significantly more aerated compared to soil! Aeration (or a lack thereof) is a killer of succulents, and many non-succulent plants, as well. Water won’t evaporate fast enough before the plant absorbs it, in soil, and that’s simply not an issue in Pon! Anyway, just had that realization! Thanks again!

Everything we need to know about pon in one video........thank you so much

great video, thank you for sharing your experience

Thanks for sharing the wealth of information on this new soil alternative

So glad I found you! I have my alocasias, calatheas, and anthuriums in pon already. Thinking about switching my huge maidenhair fern. Thank you, thank you!!!!

Excellent review!!! Thank you.

Very useful information, thank you!!

I'm so glad I've found your chanel!

Thank you. You are very sweet and you did a great job explaining how to use pon.

Thanks for the tips and lesson. I just started with my DIY PON. I live in Maryland, U.S. and I repotted 2 hoyas knowing it was not Spring and one started to decline rapidly. The other not so much. Anyhow, I think you provided a lot of valuable information that I will direct people to your video. Thanks again!

This was super helpful!

I got my answer regarding when/in which season to transfer plants to pon. Spring! Well, I transferred many of my plants recently -June and even yesterday, July 2nd- and so far, so good! 🤞🙏🤞 Thank you for this informative, detailed tutorial.

I really enjoyed this video, thank you!

Excellent video Miss Tang. Very informative video, I learned a lot. Thank you.

Thank you for this video!

Love this video, very informative and educates us as well. Tq, keep up the good work.

Hi Fonnie I’ve Just Discovered You’re Channel And I Love How In Depth You Done On This Product Thank You & Hello From Australia 💕🤍💕

Loved this video. Very helpful

How have I not come across you? Shame. I am ah struck by the amount of information you gave in this video. I appreciate that you get to the point and just dive in. Absolutely one of the most informative videos I’ve ever seen on plants. I subscribed and can’t wait to binge watch your videos. Thanks you for not assuming we’re idiots and explaining the facts clearly, properly, and organized. Super impressive. I hope someone is paying you a lot because you’ve divulged amount of info that others would take six months to explain. Way to go girl!

This video made me subscribe!!! I love how you described PON ❤️❤️ I’m so interested in using it

So informative and helpful!! Thank you for this video 🫶🏻

Tusen takk for enda en flott video 😃 Jeg bruker stort sett bare Lechuza pon til mine planter, og har gjort det i mange måneder. Likevel lærte jeg noe av deg nå 👍 Jeg er så glad jeg har funnet din kanal her inne - du inspirerer masse ❤️ Mine favorittplanter er Hoya, og nå har jeg begynt å jakte på en del av de du har vist her inne 😅

You are such an amazing Hoya you-tuber, you deserve way more views

Very helpful! Thank you ❤

Thank you for this video! People kept saying “during transition water like normal” and I felt like that made no sense, since pon is sooo different than soil. I appreciate the explanation soooo so much!

Very informative. Thank you. God bless.

I have been looking at some youtube videos about lechuza pon, I would love to put some of my plants in pon, this is an extremely well made video. thank you so much. Good luck with the channel, I have subscribed.

Thank you for making this video it’s very informative! I was wondering what fertilizer do you like to use with pon?

Recently been transferring plants from soil to leca. I was curious. Google brought you to me first. Excellent. Nothing else to say except SUBSCRIBED 🌱❤️🌱❤️🌱 THANK YOU FONNIE

I just came across this video. I was wondering what all the fuss was about in relation to pon. This video was very helpful in explaining how to use it and its benefits!

This is the most informative video about lechuza pon I've found so far! Thank you sooo much! At least now I am not as scared to use it with my Philodendrons and Monsteras! I also noticed that you have a glass shelf with a golden frame that I am considering buying (at least it looks exactly the same). I also noticed that you attached grow lights to it. Could you please share which type of grow lights you use with this shelf and which shop you got your shelf at? I am still deciding on this one and was thrilled to see that it works well with plants:)

I rarely comment video, but this one is a must see! I have a handful of plant in pon already and probably have watched half of the KZfaq content about PON but your video is easily top 3 must see. Clear explanation and experiences! I watched it on 1.5x because I have adhd and you talk a little too slow for me, but I think that way everyone can enjoy your videos at their own paces! I subscribed for more 👍🏻

Great video Fonnie. I use a lot of Lechuza Pon in the Lechuza self-watering planters. All I would say is you can grow in an aroid type well draining soil substrate with pon at the bottom of the self watering planter so you don’t have to remove most of the soil. As long as the root’s aren’t root bound when you repot you are fine leaving soil substrate on the plant. I also found plants took better to Pon when they had a good root system. Small cuttings with fine roots can struggle. A very informative video and keep up the good work 👍

Thank you have learned a lot from your video. I have the pon at home but was afraid to use it.

Soooo helpful :)

Thanks👍

Very instructive. Hi from Singapore! I subbed!

Love this video 😊 its very informative ! I would like to know where you get your water reservoir pots from ? Thank you so much for your content ❤️

Btw, great video! 💚

Thank you

Thank you so much for such a thorough video!! Helps us who want to start transferring our babies to pon! I would love to know how you made the planters that you showed us when you were sitting and doing the majority of your talking. You showed the variegated hoya (I missed the name), and the pot with the plant and pon was clear, like an orchid pot, then you had the clear part with the water, and then it looked like you had a white pot that you cut the bottom off of to cover it, but could still see the water reservoir at the bottom. I’d love for you to explain that, or even do a video about that?? Thank you so much for your great video!

😍

Fantastic video. Transitioning . You answered so many questions. The only question I have is the vessels. So many different ones out there. Heard some lean yowards root tot. I ve also heavily invested in orchid pots and cache pots. Wondering if I can use these at all.

I hope you are recovering well.

❤

Thanks for the video. They are all very informative. I started using Pon just recently, and my plants are growing, but I am not sure if it because spring is coming or because of Pon.

💚

Excellent video Fonnie. You really are one of my favorites! Question: why do you think the lechuza company recommends that you can put the entire root Ball with soil on it and surround it with pon?

Thanks for sharing your experience.. I used pon before and didn’t have much success.. now after watching your video I’m planning to try it again.. it’s impressive how your plants are growing so big.. now maybe you can share your fertilizer or nutrient solution you use with your pon.. :) Thanks again.. new fan/subscriber here..

Thank you so much very informative and I am fortunate to come across your video as I have a lot of gnats and was looking for solutions to get rid of them. What fertilizer do you use and how much? Thanks 🙏

Just found you now :-). I make my own because a big bag of it is $180 AUD. (They do have a reservoir, but I do find one part of the pot/pon to water through. So I don’t get any potential mould). Same for Leca. I don’t add slow release to my DIY mix but every now, and then when I fill up the reservoir, I add Growth technology foliage focus

Such an amazing video. Truly. Where do you get your smaller tall planters? I’ve searched everywhere for them. Most are quite large that I’ve found.

Thank you so much, Fonnie, for your deep dive video on Lechuza pon. I will be transitioning my Hoya soon and and this video was very helpful. Could you recommend what fertilizer you use to water your plants after the six-month period slow release fertilizer in the Lechuza pon ends and/or after boiling the pon to reuse? Thank you so much!😊

Great video, great explanations! Would you recommend Lechuza Pon for Begonia as well? Maybe mixed with Kanuma to lower the pH?

Fonnie, that was a very thorough, clear and detailed presentation on Pon. Thank you!! I feel so lucky to have stumbled upon it. Your video gave me the confidence I need to transition most of my plants to Pon from LECA. I have all three of the main ingredients now, I only have to figure out what sort of fertilizer to add to my homemade mixture. Could you suggest a dry fertilizer to add to my mix for the first transition/planting?
