Medias........
 

My Mom recently repoting some of her plants.So,she use some kind of sphere jelly thingy.Is it safe for CPs?

Re: Medias........
 

It will depend on what it is made of. CP's require media that is low in nutrients. Generally if it is low in nutrients it should be OK. Different plants grow in different mixes so you will need to keep an eye on them. All TC plants grow happily in AGAR or similar gels.

Is it a soft squishy jelly fun-to-press easily-broken sphere thing. Sometimes called crystal something. Tried before and killed a baby VFT.

o.O,SO where to get AGAR?

Re: Medias........
 

The jelly thing isn't that good, unless you bought it specially from somewhere, not local nurseries. I think you shouldn't try to pot your CPs in it, unless you know the contents of the jelly.

I have absolutely no idea to get agar, somebody is doing TC with agar, perhaps you can ask him, Marvin.

I read in chineese they say its a kind of clay like thingy maybe.Search"shui jing bao bao".

Re: Medias........
 

As far as I know, it is to sustain plants with minerals and fertilizer at a minimum cost and also for beauty. I don't think it is suitable........classic medias are better.
