Re: anyone here into orchid raising?

hello po, i'm newbie in orchid and would like to know more specially potting media... ano po ba better medium? coco husk, orchid pot mix, or gravel? from my googling kailangan mabilis daw madry to avoid root rot. i find coco husk na matagal maghold ng water. gravel looks like to dry faster but what's the experience on gravel overall? thanks po.

we have orchids at home and my wife uses coco husk only at the roots doesn't rot at all.

she just make it a point to use spray bottle in watering the orchids to have a better control of the amount of water for the coco husk to absorb.

Our other orchids that are planted in a pot with coco husks, my wife uses orchid pot (i.e., the one with big holes on the side). This will avoid the pot from collecting too much water that will be absorbed by the coco husk and may eventually cause the roots to rot.

HTH 🙂

Paano po magpatubo ng cymbidium orchids mula sa buto?
