Lechuza-Pon 3 l The high-quality, purely mineral plant substrate as an alternative to soil (Lechuza-Pon is suitable for the drainage layer). Item no. 19560 Lechuza-Pon is the ideal alternative where conventional soil is not required as a planting substrate. Advantages of Lechuza-Pon Lechuza-Pon is suitable for all plants (including orchids and citrus plants). Lechuza-Pon is made of high quality mineral rocks that are free of impurities and pollutants. Lechuza-Pon has an optimal air-water ratio for plants (45% water:55% air). This reduces the susceptibility to diseases. Even after years, the structurally stable plant substrate does not compact and retains its air-permeable structure. Lechuza-Pon does not need to be replaced even after years! Multiple sieving during production reduces fine particles in the rock to a minimum. This prevents silting in the root area and preserves the permanent capillarity. The zeolite content permanently stabilises the optimum pH value in your Lechuza planter for healthy plant growth. Macro and micro nutrients remain permanently freely available. Lechuza-Pon has a continuous capillarity up to the surface of the container. Sub-plantings and plants with small roots are thus optimally supplied with water. The Lechuza plant substrate ensures an even distribution of nutrients in the root area of your planter. The optimal supply results in an evenly compact root distribution and a robust plant that you will enjoy for a long time. Lechuza-Pon acts like a buffer that absorbs excess fertiliser and releases it back to the plant as needed. The natural nutrient store prevents the roots from burning due to overfertilisation. Lechuza-Pon has an adapted bulk density. Your plant will find a firm hold in the planter, which is especially important for larger plants. Lechuza-Pon ensures a high stability of your Lechuza planter and is also excellently suitable for outdoor use. The granulate is a natural odour binder for e.g. dead root parts. Heavy metals and pollutants (e.g. from watering water) are permanently bound. The purely mineral plant substrate inhibits root-damaging fungi. Pon is therefore suitable for allergy sufferers. It does not create a breeding ground for pests (fungus gnats), as these only nest in soil. Pon is free-flowing and can be used with a shovel to fill the planters without dirt. When planting in Lechuza-Pon, you do not have to completely remove the soil from the root ball of the plant.
