ORCHID-GRO+ by LAVA-LITE is a specialist growing media designed to meet the needs of orchid plants. Made from naturally formed volcanic stone, it has a porous texture that allows water to drain freely while still holding onto some moisture. This helps maintain a balanced environment around the roots, supporting healthy growth and reducing the risk of overwatering.
The material is completely pH neutral and contains no added chemicals. Unlike organic matter, it will not break down over time, which means it can continue to provide structure and support with minimal maintenance. Its lightweight nature makes it easy to handle, and it also adds a clean, decorative finish to the surface of your pots.
ORCHID-GRO+ is suitable for all types of orchids, whether you’re potting a new plant or repotting an established one. It can be used on its own or mixed with other materials like bark or sphagnum moss, depending on your plant’s needs. If roots have grown into the media, it can be transferred to a new container without having to separate it, making repotting simpler and less disruptive.
To use, mix one part ORCHID-GRO+ with around three parts of your preferred orchid compost. You can also add a layer on top of the pot to improve stability and appearance. ORCHID-GRO+ is supplied in a 3L bag and is a practical, long-lasting option for anyone looking to care for orchids with ease.
