My Home Depot carried only one bark medium, and that was a small bag of JUST bark. The chunks were actually a bit bigger than I'd prefer, but it was better than potting soil. Thanks for the...

Recommendations for potting medium online store? (Phal mix)

Soooo, I was getting a bark mix at Home Depot before, but they don't carry it anymore, apparently, and I can't find anything other than that terrible Miracle Gro Orchid Mix locally. Soooo, I'm...

Is my sphagnum turning green again, or something else?

My phal that just started to spike is potted in mostly bark with some sphagnum moss mixed in, and in a clear, plastic pot. The moss was brown when I posted it, and quite dry. I just noticed that...
