Potting soil + perlite + orchid bark or coco coir. Some worm castings if you want to get fancy. As long at the end mix is chunky and well draining, it should be fine.

Ok thx that helps a lot

Yea I have a concoction, 2 parts dirt, 1 part orchid bark, 1 part perlite and if you feel fancy a pinch of worm castings. This is my high maintenance plant mix, it would probably still be happy with just dirt and perlite, or cactus mix. Hope that helps!

I have a Deb! Her name is Vanessa. I recently repotted Vanessa in 1 part perlite, 1 part orchid bark, 3 parts peat moss, and a small shake of charcoal and she seems to loveeeee it. I’m sure you’ve already created a nice recipe but if you ever need a new option that’s mine :)

What did you end up using and how does she like it?
