Ray you are an angel
 

Just wanted to say that the s/h stuff explained on your site really works. I
tried it with a few plants and woowee it works. A vuyl hybride that just
wouldn't make any roots for three years, has made more roots the past three
months then the three years before that. I'll probably only use it for
plants I can't grow in my normal mix. I like the whole potting and repotting
thing. It's part of the charm with growing orchids. And I like a bark mix
better, visualy.

just one question. I was wandering if i use this sh culture stuff to help
root growth, can I than at a later stage put the plants back in a bark mix?
I was thinking of using sh to improve root growth and than return to my
regular mix. Is this an option?

Everything is an option!

I would hesitate moving them back though, as the root system developed in
the semi-hydroponic conditions is different than that needed in bark.

....and I am certainly NOT and angel!
