Greetings, My zeolite was delivered yesterday, and today I planted 8 seeds in a mix consisting of equal parts zeolite, pumice and #2 cherrystone. The pots are in a covered seed tray on a heating pad.
Ken, the mesh pot is in a saucer of diluted 9-3-6 fertilizer and the perlite/cherrystone wicks up the water. I think that gives them air and water without the roots rotting. Again I am just experimenting.
Joe

I love to experiment too, Joe. I am rooting some plumeria cuttings (or trying to), using several methods. Most of these experiments in rooting goes against everything I have been taught and everything I normally do. Most of the results are yet to come in but I have had some surprising successes so far.

Yes I went brain dead this morning, sorry.

That's ok, Marica...I'm never sure how to pronounce it.
