## Description

Sun Bulb Better Gro 4-Quart Orchid Bark : desertcart.in: Home & Kitchen

Review: This is the good stuff for orchids.
Review: Used this to repot some phals and they definitely seem to like it. It's well-draining and leaves lots of space for healthy root growth. It's a big bag which was great for the price and the pieces of bark were fresh and not dusty. They're of a reasonable size too, not too big and not too small. I probably wouldn't use this for oncidiums or dendrobiums unless I had mixed it with smaller pieces of bark or perlite though, as it is very well draining and in my climate those orchids do better in more retentive mediums.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the average size of the bark pieces?**
A: 3/4-1”. Some pieces are thin while others are thick and more of a chunk. I use it with my cymbidium mix and have had great success.  It is bark only.

**Q: Can I freeze the bags to kill the bugs?**
A: I love this bark. All I had to do was cover the top of the dirt in the pot with this and it cured by bug problem. I love the look too!

**Q: Is this good for zz plant?**
A: Yes bark is large enough for zz plant

**Q: Wow. Quality control? Its been greatt but the last 4 bags i bought (at once) had varying probs. And the sizes???  Why are they all massive pieces now?**
A: This is the last bag I bought of the bark, I thought it was as chunky as it should be. I'm thinking yours is just a different batch a different week or month or day that it was produced and everything can't be exact so I really don't have a better answer for you. I use it as an extra aeration to my soils along with perlite and peat moss
