Recommended culture media for Phragmipedium and Paphiopedilum

[Cach26]

Hello everyone

I am researching which growing mediums are best for Phragmipediums, and for Paphiopedilums (in general, which medium is best for each genus)

But I only have P748 from Pythotech , I don't know if I add anything to it, so that they grow "Better, Harder, Faster, Stronger" XD

Medium isn't very important so long as it has air at the roots and stays moist. People choose media based on their growing conditions.

P748 is a replate medium. If you’re plating seeds, P723 is their general purpose medium for seed germination. According to phytotech, replacing 50ml/liter of the water with coconut water is beneficial to phrags and paphs. I usually use it as a standard addendum on the P723 for germination. Once you start to get leaf differentiation, you can move them up to the P748.
