    Default Paphiopedilum Medium

    Does anyone have an idea of any General homemade Medium for Flasking for Paphiopedilum?
    seed sowing and replate?

    and do they really need a Dark photoperiod of 30 days?

    as far as I know Paphiopedilum loves Calcium. will limestone powder do the trick?

    I have no experience in flasking but would love to know. I doubt if lime stone power would be helpful.
