I started dabbling in orchids around the same time period. Bark medium and I never got along well either.

I do want to stick to the semi-hydro concept because of not wanting to water often. Will be interesting to see how well it wicks. Thanks for sharing your culture with us. |
I don't have much experienced but I do use lava rock in semi hydro for my phals, some Cat and Den hybrids and they are doing good, for some cats I use small wicking microfiber which goes from water reserve to top of the pot and also I cover top with small river rocks so water won't get evaporated and avoid top become dry, this setup is working for me and I am watering once in a week.
Thanks.
