I would think the continue watering will prevent blooming and leaf loss needed. My experience with nobile types when I was doing binge and starve fertilizing and continued water without fertilizer over winter was the plants held their leaves and didn't go dormant and, thus, did not bloom. Can't you go through a period of flushing the LECA for a couple weeks, then pour off the water and leave everything dry? The last years roots for me turn bone dry and crispy with no green ends. Then when I resume watering in spring they start regowing from the old roots as well as adding new roots. If you want to see how this looks, let me know and I'll post a close-up pic.
