Anyone have pro and con comments to using a "semi-hydroponic" growing
system for orchids.

In particular, my wife has started using FirstRay's system.

I've gradually converted all my potted collection to S/H, including
Catts,
Laelias, Oncs, Phals, Phrags, Encyclias, Ascocentrums, and Dens, and all
seem
to love it. Benefits to my mind include ready access to enough water
without
soggy or decomposing medium, and ease of repotting only when needed for
size.
