Schultz Orchid Mix-dried pine bark,arcillite, and horticultural charcoal

[latewood]

I picked up a bag to try 1 plant out of my clones...Any comments?
It seems like it would be a nice grow medium, but my main concern is PH
Any suggestions will be appreciated...later. :cool:

I looked at it soaked it in water, has a ph of 6.3...pretty good?
I'm gonna give it a shot...adding perlite and spag. moss...any suggestions or comments are more than welcome...this is a learning forum!

Sounds like a healthy medium to me. 6.3 is a good ph. Nothing over 7ph if my memory serves me right. Sounds like you're into organics? That's something I need to get into and change from chemical to organic. Yours sounds good though, good job! Peace.
