I use this aroid mix for all my plants on moss poles and all my most precious plants like variegated monsteras, philodendron strawberry shake, etc.
All ingredients are listed here.
📝DIY Aroid Mix Recipe
- 1 part pumice
- 1 part orchid bark
- 1 part vermeculite
- 1/4 part tree fern (you may sub for coco coir)
- 1/4 part coco coir chips
- 1/2 part horticultural charcoal
- 1/2 part chunky perlite
- optional- sprinkle worm castings
A quick note- chunky ingredients like pumice + perlite are for aeration, whereas more dense ingredients like tree fern, coco coir or worm castings are moisture retentive. Feel free to adjust measurements according to your care preferences and environments.
Happy Growing!
In case you need it, here is my nutrient-rich cocktail I water all my plants with, year round.
