Pon Republic substrate 2dm

Pon Republic substrate is a premium, ready-to-use pon mix designed for plant lovers who are done with soggy soil, fungus gnats, and root rot. Hand-blended in South Africa, this soilless substrate is perfect for indoor plants, rare aroids, hoyas, succulents, and tropical houseplants that thrive in high-drainage conditions.

This professional-grade mineral mix contains:

• 🪨 Pumice – for long-term aeration and root oxygenation

• 🌋 Lava stone – lightweight and porous, helps retain structure

• ⚪ Crushed LECA – boosts drainage and holds just the right amount of moisture

• 🔄 Zeolite – a natural nutrient buffer that reduces salt build-up

• 🌑 Horticultural charcoal – keeps the mix fresh and microbe-balanced

Unlike traditional potting soil, Pon Republic is 100% peat-free, pest-resistant, and reusable. It doesn’t compact, attract fungus gnats, or break down over time — making it ideal for semi-hydro setups, passive hydroponics, self-watering pots, and leca conversions.

Because Pon is inert, it doesn’t hold as much nutrients like organic soil does—so you’ll need to add fertiliser regularly. You can use a controlled release fertiliser or a water soluble fertilizer when watering, depending on your setup.

How to use Pon Republic:
Simply rinse before first use, then fill your container or self-watering pot. Add your plant, water lightly, and let the mix do the work. It’s ideal for growers who want better control over watering and cleaner root environments.

Whether you’re a rare plant collector or just looking to upgrade your potting game, Pon Republic is built for root health, resilience, and peace of mind.

🌿 Great for:

• Hoya

• Aroids (Philodendron, Alocasia, Anthurium, Monstera)

• Orchids (especially Phalaenopsis & Dendrobium)

• Propagation of cuttings
