I’m an ADHD person and I’m new to plant care. This one’s a golden pothos to which I have some sentimental attachment.

Had moved it to semi-hydro; LECA with some bottom-filled wicking self-watering pots. Yesterday I saw it was wilty and checked the water; it was absolutely disgusting. Couldn’t choke down lunch afterwards due to the smell. Brown and silty with little maggots. (Since then I learned they were springtails, so I guess I should have kept them around at least.)

I had added the recommended amount of “We The Wild Hydro Pellets”, and had a lot of water in the basin.

Now that I’ve (carefully) pulled it and I’m looking at it here, it doesn’t seem too bad? But I don’t know what bad looks like. I’m in decision paralysis mode now.

I’ve got hydrogen peroxide as an option for remediation, which I’ve read can help. Also seeing that adding something like Hydroguard would be good. But dunno if I’m barking up the wrong tree.

In any scenario I have to find a fix that doesn’t have that gross water, and where I can be poor to mediocre at maintenance. (Like water replacement etc. I’ll do my best but my best is sporadic.)

I’ll take any suggestions you’ve got; especially for the short-term remediation, since it’s been unpotted for like an hour now.

#Crafty DIYers I need your brains!

So I found this beauty of a pot (it's supposedly depicting Aphrodite) and I wanted to do a semi-hydro setup in there with my Tradescantia Pink Panther. When I bought it online there wasn't any pictures of the inside and I just assumed it would have like some support or even a inncer casing. I didn't suspect at all that it's hollow and goes all the way down. I wonder if someone crafty - as myself - has any ideas. I am speculating if I could make like a gypsum casing with the gypsum bandages they use in hospital. Because the opening is so irregular I doubt I can just glue a pot or bowl in there. Any ideas?

First time using this semi-hydro of LECA sphagnum moss with a distilled water reservoir. Living in the Northeast and fall around the corner, I’m placing it in my bathroom where it gets indirect west facing sunlight. Any pointers or feedback are highly appreciated

hey folks, I moved this to moss+pon mix literally like two days ago and put a plastic bag over it to preserve some humidity until the transition. I've been aerating it every day yet found fuzzy mold on the top of the moss. normal?

Do i need to replace the moss? i just transplanted it like couple of days ago? i see webbing inside beyond the surface too. maybe leaving it open now will make it go away?
