you can probably google them. Scalewatcher is the company name. My Orchids are thriving.
I dunno, looking at my vandas, I can see that there is hard water scale in places.
Ray's logic is good, and he has been trying it out himself. He'd be a fool to use it if it wasn't working for him.

Yeah. It'll "shock them", alright. Sort-of like the shock of winning the lottery.
