Large plants, plenty of substrate, great joy! LECHUZA-PON XXL gives your large plants stability and sturdiness, especially in large containers. The peat-free XXL substrate can be used for indoor and outdoor plants. Due to its pure mineral composition of coarse-grained pumice, lava and zeolite, it reliably stores water and nutrients, which are slowly released. Due to the extra coarse grain size, the substrate ensures optimal root aeration and a high drainage ability. This is particularly important for large plants. It also prevents waterlogging and root rot. LECHUZA-PON XXL is pre-fertilised and provides your large green plants, shrubs and grasses with sufficient nutrients for around 6 months. For the sake of nature, the substrate is peat-free. LECHUZA-PON XXL can be used both for complete planting or as an ornamental layer, as its coarse grain gives it an attractive appearance.
Tip: PERFECT LEAF and PERFECT FLOWER fertilisers are particularly suitable for nutrient supply. While PERFECT LEAF promotes the green of your indoor plants and ensures healthy growth, PERFECT FLOWER stimulates the flowering of your flowering plants. Both are available as slow-release and liquid fertilisers.
Ingredients: pumice, lava and zeolite (coarse grained), slow-release fertilizer (specific for houseplants)
Note: Also suitable for use with edible plants.

Planting instructions
Step 1:
Add the LECHUZA-PON plant substrate (included with the pots) as a drainage layer on the separating base in the pot. This is important so the water can be transported from the reservoir to the plant.
Then pour a thin layer of the desired substrate into the container. Just enough to give your plant the right height in the container.
Step 2:
Place the plant in your planter. The roots do not need to be completely removed from the soil.
Step 3:
Fill the container completely with the substrate of your choice, e.g. using the PON shovel.
Step 4:
For the first 12 weeks, water your plant as usual from above, directly onto the substrate. Only water as much as the plant can absorb. Make sure that there is as little water as possible in the reservoir.
After this watering phase, you can water your plant via the water shaft. For pots without a LECHUZA watering system, the plant continues to be watered from above. You can find more information here: https://www.lechuza.world/how-to-plant-lechuza/sp-planting.html
