What soil should be used to grow Phalaenopsis?

1. Sphagnum moss

Phalaenopsis is a flower with aerial roots and requires soil with good water retention and air permeability. Peat soil is formed by the decomposition or decay of materials such as peat moss and sphagnum moss. It has good water retention and air permeability and is often used in home cultivation. But it is a non-renewable resource, so its substitutes are often used now.

2. Coconut bran

Coconut bran is the main substitute for peat soil. It is a fertilizer processed from coconut shells. It mainly contains coconut shell fibers, more nutrients, and has good water retention and air permeability. Since it is recycled and reused as fertilizer, it is beneficial to the environment.

3. Special blue soil

After continuous exploration, merchants have their own secret recipes, which are generally more breathable and water-retaining. This kind of soil is suitable for beginners who are just starting to grow fish, as it can save time and increase the survival rate.
