Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

All our orchids (8) have been transitioned to semi-hydroponic media & this Leca is great! Not uniform in size, large and small beads, which we want. Some sink, some float, which is fine — we place the floating beads in our glass container first, then the heavy beads that sink, to hold them down. Here was our prep: 1. Soaked in water overnight. 2. All dust settled at bottom, so scooped out leca. 3. Rinsed in colander and soaked again overnight. 4. Scooped out leca again. 5. Boiled in pasta pot for 15 minutes. 6. Cooled and soaked in orchid fertilizer solution for 24 hours. 7. Placed orchids in glass container with leca. 8. All our orchids are now blooming again!
