Don't put potting mix in the bark, they need a lot of air around the roots. Coco husks are ok, but I have all mine in bark, NOTHING else mixed in. Large cymbids need a coarse bark, the smaller types need a somewhat finer bark. I have been growing cymbids for 30 years and they are doing well in bark.
