to grow lady-slippers, what kind of soil would i have success with? my defualt medium is coco bedding but i do have 100% organic compost available. naturally i will not use any hard substraits or chemical firtilizer pellets because of my geckos.

now i know this question should wait till i actually have orchids, but that misting system linked above is just too much to spend (my reeftank pulls alot of money) and i intend to buy a hand sprayer for like 10$. how often and when should i be misting the setup? just some quick reading tells me that the orchids should be fairly dried out by night time or else the roots may rot.
