| I think we need a definition of 'soil'. 'Dirt' I think we can all agree is what you find on the ground. Soil is a term used by farmers and I would assume, not being a farmer, that they would like their 'soil' to have a lot of organic mater in it. How about 'Super Soil', a brand of potting mix, which again is mostly organic matter. Maybe we should turn this into a thread of everyone giving their opinion of what 'soil' is. We sure can't recommend 'soil' if there is no agreement of what 'soil' is. For me, I think the term 'soil' is synonymous with dirt, and would never recommend growing any orchids in it.
