Eco web cubes?

[Pilot]

Hey all,

So I got some Eco web cubes from Ray a few weeks ago and I wasn't sure what to do with them but I like the idea of an open media that the roots can grab a hold of etc. I also like how light it is. I've been growing with hydroton for nearly as long as I've grown orchids and it's heavy. Anyway, I also got a neo hybrid form ray in the same order and it came growing in Eco web. And I kid you not, while Ray has very nice plants, this plant was loving this Eco web! It was crazy how much the plant has grown its roots in and around and through the webbing.

So I got inspired. I removed a Phal I had in hydroton but not in sh that is sending out new roots. I cut aqua cloth, also from ray, to fit inside the new pot and deep enough to reach in to the reservoir. Then I placed the plant in and filled in the space with this Eco web. The aqua cloth wicks water up pretty far and the Eco web of course is very open and airy but still holds droplets.

So my question is, has anyone else used Eco web in sh instead of hydroton or prime Agra?

I'm not affiliated with Ray in any way but seriously this stuff is great... The other neo hybrids I already had we're doing ok but I decided to put them in a vase to keep up the humidity (I dump the water when it's watered well) and the plants have already grown roots into the Eco web... Love it!
