Over 25 years of orchid growing in horse manure I have not seen one
failure.
One lady friend of mine thinks that horse manure is too dirty to use
for orchid growing. She said that she could grow better ones without
horse manure. I am still waiting for her to show me a photo of one of
her orchids
that it is actually made from horse manure. If so the success it

Hello Des,
You have not yet tried using horsemanure as a growing medium otherwise
you would have found that after a week or so you can't smell it.
Your compatriat from the Orchid Society was concerned about "the haven
it would provide for mycorrhyzal pathogens in the tropics," If you

Hello Phil,
Good to hear that you were able to dodge the snow and the tornado.
The watering through the winter is to keep the strength of the
nutrients consistent. If the manure dries out it becomes stronger when
