Marisa, you'll want a medium that drains well and dries out fairly quickly. Phals can get root rot in the blink of an eye. That's why sphag doesn't work for me. I should have been clearer, I use coco husk chunks (similar to bark), not peat. I find that peat is too heavy, and retains too much water much like sphag.
