You're right PhalPal. That's why I use in hydroponics. However, my seedlings are only in the hydro for 2-3 months. If you plant an orchid in it and leave it for too long it starts to break down and get soggy. 'Course I think Aussie Gold is even worse. Apparently you have mastered the use of these materials with your watering plan. I will say this about ground coir, it doesn't get hard to wet like dry peat does. I think CHC is better than any of the above, but that's what makes the world go round.
