Fantastic video! This could be whole series with one video dedicated to each substrate. We have one on POMICE already. Thumbs up for this comment if you would like video dedicated to LECA. Thank you!
I’ve watched this 2-3 times and I’m still having light bulbs go on in my head. So good.
so do i :) Thanks you so much, Swedisch Plant Guys

Excellent clear and understandable explanation of substrates. I am impressed by your complete command of English, which is better than many native speakers.
Highly recommended to watch the entire video if you really want to understand the difference, very informative….

I CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF THIS CHANNEL!
How can anyone give this a thumbs down? It’s just solid, fact based information. Keep them going guys!
Exactly!
The swedish plantguys give solid n useful info wo drama! Love it.
How do you know anyone has?
TH-cam has gone in the direction of no opinion matters unless its positive, no constructive criticism.... So sad
It is really what I need to know about substrates. And I got the confidence to change my pots.👍
Thank you for this posting.
Very Informative, but I have to watch again to take notes😀😀
Utmärkt video! Tack, grabbar!!
Yes! Thank you. This was so helpful.

Thank you for all of the knowledge you are passing on to us . Learning quite a lot
Best houseplant channel on TH-cam!
This is really the most informative video I found on the differences among the 4 substrates. Full of helpful info and great advice. Thanks so much for sharing!
Best lectures about soil can be found on Gary Matsuoka's channel. Here's one of the lectures. It's long, but it really is an eye-opener when it comes to soil. th-cam.com/video/GfCyrUu8KEo/w-d-xo.html
Soil in nature is mostly non-organic. It's made of sand, silt and clay. Planting plants in organic soil, like ground tree bark, is an unnatural way of growing plants which doesn't exist in nature and in time it becomes poisonous to plants, as it breaks down.
The reason why plant roots rot is not too much water. Water itself doesn't hurt the roots, or else hydroponics wouldn't exist. Roots rot because of a lack of oxygen. They can sit in water all day long, as long as it is regularly exchanged to replenish the oxygen levels in it. Organic planting mixes break down and become compact, which drastically reduces the levels of oxygen. Without much oxygen, they continue to break down anaerobically, which essentially produces sewer gases. If you then water too much, the water doesn't drain away easily and all the oxygen in it gets used up after a while, and that's when roots start rotting.
I love this, I learnt so much! 💜
So informative! Thank you!
I've always wondered about these substrates, thanks!
Very happy I discovered your channel.
As usual great video as always 👍 Brilliant source of information thank you 😊 Awesome job🙌👍
This is so helpful, thanks for sharing!
Complete master class. Thank you.
Your videos are the best. Keep posting. Thanks
Amazing video, exactly what I was looking for!
Very helpful, thank you guys. Love all your videos
I would suspect this also depends on what kind of waterer you are. I tend to overwater, so good drainage is Important! But if you tend to forget to water, adjusting the soil with that in mind would be valuable.
My parents never water the plants I give them so I add vermiculite, where as I always fuss and can over water so I add extra perlite Pahaha. Annoyingly I just hate how vermiculite looks
Great, thorough information guys! Thanks a lot!
Where I live perlite is expensive but pumice is really cheap…we use it pulverized to clean grease off pots and you can find it easily in the outskirts of the city. I would have never thought to use it for my plants, but I will try it. Thank you!!!!!!

i came across this video while googling about aroid potting mixes and watched one after another, and i must say you guys have the best gardening tips videos, by far! simple yet scientific, informative and covering all aspects thoroughly, cheerfully delivered with a subtle sense of humour. the calatheas one had me chuckling - my assessment of the calthea personality is just the same and they trouble me among the most 😅 ... keep up the good work! will surely be watching the rest as they seem tailor-made for me - i have the plants you have covered and i have the problems you have covered. 🤓
Thank you very much!!! Very helpful video and easy to understand English!
