Tolumnia in Net Pots with DRY Leca

[Grawski]

After much research on the Tolumnia environmental prefereces, I have decided to experiment potting my Tolumnias with Dry Leca in a net pot. If I used saturated Leca, I believe the pots might not dry out fast enough to suit the plant's needs. The net pots are 2-3/4" (7 cm) diameter at the top. The Leca is very small, averaging 3/8" (1 cm). I watered all the bare root plants this morning, and will not wet the Leca until tomorrow morning. I have not decided on the watering technique. I could submerge the bottom half of the pot, or I could pour from above. I'd like to attempt not wetting the crown. I'm open to comments. I'm sure they'll be interesting. Thanks
