Description
Charcoal is often used as an additive to orchid mixes as it helps with air flow in the medium and does not biodegrade quickly. Certain genera (when watered often and/or when grown in high humidity environments) can be grown in pure charcoal. We have had success with Vandaceous orchids, Angraecoids and even Psychopsis in pure charcoal!
Mixing recommendations:
#3 - medium charcoal. Best for medium or medium coarse bark when mixing (power/power plus orchiata)
#4 - small charcoal. Best for small bark mixes (classic orchiata)
#6 - extra fine. Best for mixing with very fine bark (precision orchiata). Also popular as a terrarium substrate.
