At the last orchid society meeting Weyman Bussey from Abunda Flora in Texas
spoke to our group. One of the ideas he mentioned was that 180 proof
alcohol (moonshine or grain alcohol) added to the water will make the roots
very happy. He claims it extends the life of the organic media and kills a
few pests too.

His recommendation is 1 teaspoon per 5 gallons of water.

Is anyone else out there doing this? What do the rest of the readers think?

Good growing,
Gene
