Your prickly roommates will feel completely at ease! Cacti and succulents originate from arid regions and require a substrate with the increased drainage effect to prevent the formation of water reservoirs. Pure mineral plant substrate CACTUSPON has an ability to let water run off. Enriched with fine pumice, lava and zeolite, the special substrate ensures optimal development of cacti and succulents. Due to the particularly fine-grained substance, waterlogging can be avoided and the roots are optimally aerated. For the love of nature, CACTUSPON is peat-free.
CACTUSPON is particularly stable in volume and offers the plants a firm stand in the planter, which is necessary for tall growing cacti. Since it is not pre-fertilized, it can be used for all species of cacti and succulents - from large and spiny like Trichocereus to small and flowering like Echinopsis.

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.co.uk/how-to-plant-lechuza/sp-planting.html
