- No drainage has been an amazing way of growing in my collection. So I thought I’d share things I’ve taken from it and show you all of my plants currently in no drainage. Also one thing I forgot to mention, gigantic credit to @unplantparenthood for introducing me to this way of growing!

Always have Leca at the bottom.
The moment I saw that fern at 13:50 your credibility as a plant owner skyrocket to me. XD I've never been able to keep that plant alive.
Omg over-waterer in hopes semi-hydro and no drainage can be the answer. SUBBED
This video is helpful and It’s why I am subscribing! I’m pretty new to plants and In the last 3 months I went from like 15 plants to over 60😬. So I’m excited to binge your videos to help me learn!
Awe thank you! I’m always here to help too if you have any questions. I appreciate you ♥️
@@Lilyplanted I’m amazed you could understand my comment with all those typos- I was just reading it back and wondering if I was jogging while typing it or something! I appreciate you replying!🙏🏻
Nice video
Thanks
😍🥳
Hey Lily, I am a new subscriber and have been binging your videos the past few days. I'd been thinking about your no drainage plants since I saw your plant tour and then you posted this so it was perfect timing haha. Is the standard no drainage "recipe" leca at the bottom, perlite/pumice and soil? Is there a particular order you add these into the vessel before placing the plant in? Also, do you cold turkey transition your plants to this out of soil, assuming that you just picked up a plant from the nursery/new propagation? Thanks!!
Usually with pon plants I’ll just put the leca at the bottom and a little pon layer then the plant then just back fill with soil plants I tend to put the leca then perlite to fill in the gaps then small amount of soil then the plant then back fill. Usually I find I can go pretty in and out of no drainage there isn’t really a transition period unless I’m moving from soil to pon. I’ll usually transition from soil to pon by putting the plant in water for a couple of weeks it’s what I did with my frydek. I’ve also transitioned by just chopping the whole thing back like with my tradescantia I just chopped the whole thing back and rerooted, I only felt comfortable doing this because I know they root up easily I haven’t done it with any other plant. With new plants I’ll usually leave them in drainage until I have gotten a grasp of what the plant likes it’s what I did with my sugar vine. It did take me a while to completely get comfortable with soil in no drainage, I’ve caused plenty of root rot because of not completely understanding how my conditions play a role. Hope this helps!
@@Lilyplanted This helps so much. Thanks for taking the time to reply 😄
No problem!
I’ve been experimenting with no drainage for over a year and I love it so much.
Thanks for putting this video out. I feel like people are missing out. Maybe content like this can open up people’s minds.
I love the look, visibility and more importantly- no more dirty saucers.
I use cylinder shaped vessels for the ease of repotting and because it’s easy to place them in cover pots but I love the unique shapes of your vessels.
This warms my heart :’). Yeah I probably should’ve mentioned that actually now that I think of it lol
That utricularia sandersonii(did I spell that right?) Looks so dainty and fantastical. I use no drainage as well, I've done it very early on when I joined the hobby. I like that it's less messy and less wasteful of water
Yes you did lol I was gonna add the tag in too but I guess I forgot, sorry. That’s awesome! I can totally see the less messy, with my drainage plants there’s always constanly dirt underneath the pots after watering them.
