LECHUZA-PON consists of high quality, mineral stones, that are free from contamination and pollutants. LECHUZA-PON has the optimal air/water ratio for plants of 45% water / 55% air. The vulnerability to diseases is reduced. Even after some time, the structurally stable plant substrate does not condense and it keeps its air-permeable structure. LECHUZA-PON can be used for years, without having to be replaced! If you are looking for an organic natural product I would push you in the direction for TerraPon and VeggiePon supplied by Lechuza, these would be classed as natural and organic products. **Q: Why there is white mould on the surface of my pots of different type? Clean roots, no organic matter, they have good air flow. So far plants look ok** A: In principle, LECHUZA-PON shouldn’t allow for mould to build up on the surface, as it does not consist of organic material - but dead roots or leaves can be a breeding ground for fungi in high humidity and moist substrate surfaces. The frequent occurrence in the autumn and winter months is related to the higher relative humidity indoors. There is also a possibility that mould spores are brought into the house on hands and clothing which has landed onto the PON via touch. The emergency plan Remove a layer of mould-monitoring plant substrate approx. 5cm thick from the surface. Wash it thoroughly and boil it in hot water, this will sterilise the PON. Then, put the dried substrate back into the planter. It is important that no dead plant parts remain in the substrate and that the plant is kept slightly drier. You can also prevent the formation of mould by immediately removing and disposing of fallen leaves, dead or diseased plant parts ie roots. PON is reusable for its lifetime so please wash, sterilise and reuse multiple times. **Q: I'm new to gardening so would like to know if the product is free from chemicals and pesticides?** A: LECHUZA-PON consists of high quality, mineral stones, that are free from contamination and pollutants. The substance zeolite stabilizes the ideal PH balance for healthy plant growth in your LECHUZA planter. Macro and micronutrients remain permanently. The purely mineral plant substrate prevents the fungus that attacks the roots. PON is therefore suited for people that may have allergies. **Q: What are the ingredients? The writing on the image is in German** A: Lechuza Pon is an inorganic mineral potting soil. It consists of 4 key ingredients Lava, Zeolite, Bims and Slow-Release Fertiliser Key benefits of each material: Lava - Natural Volcanic Minerals, Sustainable release of micro-nutrients Zeolite - Stabilises PH Levels inside the planting zone, Has High water and nutrient storage, binds heavy metals and pollutants, fungus and odour inhibitor. Bims - High Air Pore Volume - High water storage capacity Slow Release Fertiliser: 6-8 Month supply of NPK animal-free ingredients and releases nutrients as needed even at high temperatures. Combined all elements give a perfect balance for plant growth with a 45% water and 55% air which is the ideal ratio required for plants to thrive. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent for indoor plants *by C***R on 20 February 2026* Use as indoor potting mix, good drainage and moisture retention.

Very expensive product. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LECHUZA PON Peat-Free Houseplant Potting Mix for Indoor Plants, Cacti and Succulents Soil Potti *by J***K on 7 March 2026* Item is good. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Best Decision I Made for My Alocasias! *by B***G on 25 July 2026* I’ve moved my entire Alocasia collection to Lechuza PON because of a fungus gnat problem, and I’ve never been happier with the results. It retains moisture really well while still providing excellent aeration, and my Alocasias have never looked healthier. The quality of the PON is excellent too. Since switching to Lechuza PON, I haven’t seen a single fungus gnat. ## Frequently Bought Together - LECHUZA PON Peat-Free Houseplant Potting Mix for Indoor Plants, Cacti and Succulents Soil Potting Compost 18L - yarlung 6 Pack Self Watering Planter with Water Level Indicator, 5 Inch/12.7cm Plastic Plant Flower Pots Nested Container for Indoor Plants, Herbs, Aloe, Outdoor Gardening --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/219805213-lechuza-pon-peat-free-potting-compost-for-all-indoor-plants](https://www.desertcart.us/products/219805213-lechuza-pon-peat-free-potting-compost-for-all-indoor-plants) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-01*
