Phil,

I can point you to a page that is important about using it and
an indepth discussion on an orchid forum.

Many people mistakenly think it is always bad/salty.

It does have to be cat-ion exchanged before you use it, but
that is easy enough. (epsom salt and calcium nitrate.)

Any comments on the use of chipped coconut husks? Not the finely ground coir.
