WOW, what a discussion. In simple, & short, terms. My orchids show more growth with fert than without. I was wondering what kind of extended release fert. people use. Most of the long term ferts that I know of must be dibbled into the soil in order to break down properly. The potting medium for orchids is loose, not compact, thus the fert. would stay dry, for the most part, and not break down.
