Here's how I do it: 50% gritty mix 50% soil in a shallow terra cotta. Bottom water every two weeks. Fill the water line up right below the top edge of the pot. Bring the pearls up and lay them around the top of the soil. None should be hanging down when there's barely none in the pot. Use bobby pins to pin the pearls down and they will keep rooting creating more. Wait until there's a good mound inside the pot before letting them fall all over the place. Mine are indoor only. I use barrina t5s on a 12 hour timer. Hope this helps!

Nice, I am trying to start over, with my first purchase
This is fantastic and clear advice – thank you for sharing 🪴🪴🪴
Awesome! I can see what my issue is.
Op—Is the “grit” in gritty mix, perlite? I never know what the grit part means.
Or is grit just sand?
Thank you so much for this detailed advice!! I never knew why none of my attempts worked……I’m definitely going to try again using your advice ! Thank you once again!
