The rest of the substrate will be somewhat-fine bark and perlite. (about 1/2cm-1com)
Is this what you normally grow your phals in?

I just recently started feeling confident enough to repot my orchids (I've only been in the hobby 1-2yrs), and could only afford some orchid mix I found at a grocery store- as all the garden centers near me are closed for the winter.

I've been considering mixing in some sphagnum on top to help with moisture.

This is all very new to me, but I'm an eager learner!

You can see what the mix looks like here- http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s...orchids041.jpg
Don't mind the state of the phal, it's a rescue I'm in the process of rehabbing.
eta: that phal is mentioned in my thread here about it's failure to thrive- http://www.orchidboard.com/community...questions.html
