It sounds as if your product of choice may be fine for the hobby grower with 10-15 plants and can spend that amount of time in caring for them. I have over 1,000 Cyms. growing outside all year, except for those I move under cover for the early show season. I also have a house to run and a family to care for. I could never go organic with this number of plants and time available.

I use chemical insecticides ONLY WHEN NEEDED, never as a prevent; I use non-organic fertilizers every two weeks at a recommended 125 ppm dosage; and my plants speak for themselves at the shows! Orchids are my hobby, not my life.
