Potting Soil for Zygopetalum?
Maybe moderator Roberta can combine them.

The threads are different enough that I don't see how to combine them without muddy-ing the waters. Different questions still lead to similar answers.

Some Zygopetalum come from cloud forests where conditions are cooler and that is why the temperatures and the names of the Zygos are so important when answering this question. With the name, one can look up the ancestors and see if the temperatures might be the issue.
