๐Ÿ“ˆ Lechuza Pon: Top vs. Bottom Watering ๐Ÿ’ง

Ever wondered about the best way to water your succulents for optimal growth? Iโ€™ve got you covered with a unique experiment using the commercial mineral substrate, Lechuza Pon. I set up a side-by-side comparison using two identical pots filled with Lechuza Pon, each housing a moisture sensor at their core. One pot was watered conventionally from the top, while the other received its hydration from the bottom. ๐Ÿšฟ๐Ÿ’ง Join me as I unveil the surprising results of this experiment, tracking the dynamic changes in moisture levels within each pot over time. Youโ€™ll witness firsthand how the top and bottom watering methods impact the succulentsโ€™ growth and well-being.

In the latest version of these sensors from a Chinese manufacturer, a resistor seems to have been omitted during production, resulting in a significantly reduced response from the sensor. Please watch this video before buying: โ„น๏ธ While Lechuza Pon has been a reliable companion in my previous experiments, Iโ€™ve made a shift to using Vulcaponic as my primary mineral substrate. Vulcaponic offers a fantastic alternative thatโ€™s not only similar in composition and performance but also comes with a cost advantage, especially when purchasing larger bags.
