Lechuza-PON 18L - Mineral growing medium for plants

LECHUZA-PON – mineral plant substrate as an alternative to traditional soil

LECHUZA-PON is a high-quality mineral substrate that provides an alternative to traditional potting soil. Its structure creates favourable water and air conditions for the roots – approximately 45% water and 55% air – supporting healthy root development.

The substrate consists of zeolite, German pumice, lightweight lava and premium granulated fertiliser. It does not compact easily and maintains its porous, air-permeable structure for a long time, allowing it to be used for many years without the need for regular replacement.

Key benefits of LECHUZA-PON

• mineral alternative to traditional potting soil

• optimal water-to-air ratio – 45% / 55%

• provides good aeration of the root zone

• maintains a stable and porous structure

• does not compact over time

• zeolite helps stabilise pH levels

• stores nutrients and releases them to the plant when needed

• helps reduce the risk of over-fertilisation

• suitable for long-term use

• suitable for many types of houseplants

Stable conditions for healthy roots

The zeolite contained in the substrate acts as a natural nutrient reservoir – it can absorb excess nutrients and gradually release them when the plant needs them. This helps maintain more stable fertilisation conditions and reduces the risk of root damage caused by excessive fertiliser.

The durable mineral structure of LECHUZA-PON provides roots with access to both water and sufficient air. The substrate resists compaction, helping it retain its beneficial properties over a long period of time.
