I am growing my Phalaenopsis in bark, charcoal and perlite mix,in plastic pots.
Would it be better to add Spagh to this mix or leave it as is.
Thanks in advance..

You're already using a very good mix. I personally would add any sphagnum to that.
I concur with Yew, great Denny.

Thanks for the reply Zain..

Thanks for your input.
I always notice that when a Phal plant is purchased,it is always in Spagh. I don't like spagh because it stays damp too long.
I guess I will continue to use the bark mixture...

Your mix sounds good to me. If it's working for you don't change anything.
