Yes the tablets have lots of additives. I do have the snow melt product and will play around with that. I just don't know the amounts of each in the mix. Thank you

Well that's good to know. I use medium size bark chips and it still stays moist at the bottom long after the top has dried out. That's the reason for making ventilation holes towards the bottom....

Then the cal-mag in the tap water should be a boon to the phals. I won't stress over the tap water then. These are all noIDs but I still try to take care of them the same way I would if they were...

I believe they are done growing as more new leaves have appeared that are also smaller. I think when another leaf grows the previous one is done growing?

what causes new phal leaves to grow smaller ?

If light and temperature along with humidity are adequate could it be they need more nitrogen ? I feed weakly-weekly with mostly Dyna-Gro orchid pro which is a 7-8-6 formula and do have Miracid here...

I have purchased a small bag of Orchiata but none of my orchids will need re-potting for months. Do you add charcoal to it ?

I do the same with my orchid pots. I concentrate the holes towards the lower third of the pot since the top dries out faster. If the orchid has a wide root system and needs a bigger pot to...

I agree with Arizona Jean. In the garden it needs reapplied after a rain to be effective , so adding to potting mix most likely won't be of any use . Just my opinion.

I use distilled water or rain water when available. My tap water is too hard--read 268 when I last checked it. I did find Ray's calculator after posting this question. A great handy tool !
