| I used to grow ordinary plants in coir and loved it ( tho you had to feed after about 3 weeks) Now we don't seem to be able to get it over here. Orchid composts in the garden centres are worse than useless and I am sure contribute to folk in the UK thinking orchids are difficult ( if not impossible to keep!) I have fine bakk for small plants ( donated by a kind grower in the UK) and coconut husk from a specialist grower, which seems fine, Judi |
