Does anyone have experience with growing young JBP in pure lavarock?
I heard Jonas Dupuich say this in one of his videos from Eisei-en.
I use an akadama/pumice/lava/kiryu mix. It works fine, I think at least.
In summer I am happy with the wet-dry cyclus.
But during autumn and winter months the soil might be holding a bit to much moisture. Comparing it to a minimum moisture holding substrate of course.
I can imagine pure lavarock needs a “constant” watering attendance. But perhaps i am to carefull with the dry side.
Curiuous to other experiences on using pure lava rock for JBP.
