Pam -
I've had a Laelia Perinii thriving in it in clay for two years.

Subject: coconut coir fiber; opinions?

Hi,
I was at the orchid show in Toronto this weekend. While I was there I
picked up some bales of coconut coir fiber.
When the fiber was soaked it had thick consistency and I am a little
concerned about using it for orchids.
Is there anyone on this news group that has used the fiber as a
potting medium and if there is, how well did it perform?
Thanks,
Pamela
