organic orchid care

13 years ago

Does anyone have any experience with growing orchids organicallly? All of the information on orchids I can find reccomends chemical fertilizers and only to use organics "sparingly". I thought about using liquid seaweed and/or fish emulsion(cant stand the smell of the latter,though) greatly diluted of course. I've also thought of of compost tea as well. Any suggestions?
