The media in the image here looks quite ok for the potting.

Just for now, I would just remove all the sphagnum. I know that sphagnum is workable, but I prefer to not have it mixed with bark and leca balls.

And although I've never used leca before, I think I would put some leca in a material bag, and then use a big mallet to bash up the leca a bit - just to break them up - hopefully they don't get sharp edges. Then I'd try the leca 'pieces' as my potting media.

You could leave the small amount of sphagnum in your mix if you like ----- which might be ok. Put more water toward the sides of the pot.

And try to not have the orchid pot sitting in any drained water.
