What makes my orchids get root rot almost everytimes when I use pure spaghum?
When I were living in Hong Kong everyone use pure sphagnum include myself but never have any bad effect. Now living in South Cal. It seems like to rot every time I use pure sphagnum. I personally have good experience with bark but It just annoying me to water frequently since I'm a student (leave at 7am back home at 6~7pm). Barks also fall over the place. I found moss hard to mix with perlite or pumice evenly.
Did I do anything wrong? Should I pack it tight or loose? Should I wait until it crispy to water it?
Thank you!
