I do earn a small amount money from amazon affiliate links if purchases are made (and I mean pennies). This does not create incentive to make videos like this. My goal is to make reliable, honest, plant content viewers can trust.

    Hey Chris! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences with an aroid mix. I am glad that you mentioned that creating an aroid mix is an art, not a science, and should vary based on the plant that you are planting. Thanks for sharing.

    💚 Informative video Chris. Isn’t this mix proportion basically a semi hydro mix? I’m using a similar mix, and using about half strength nutrients. Wonder if you’re feeding at every watering or not? Maybe not if you’re going with slow release fertilizer vs liquid nutrients for this airoid mix recipe. *On another note, I would love to see a video on using air stones and/or pumps- you link a pump on your Amazon list below. I tried this, and the stalks of my Adansonii Laniata molded out!

    Please let me know what I have to put in the water for the Leca because I put some plants in leca and they all dried up
