Molly’s Orchid Mix FAQs

What Plants Are Suitable for Growing in Molly's Orchid Mix?

Our Molly's Orchid Mix is designed for a wide variety of plants. While most plants that do well in aerated and well-drained soils will thrive in Molly's Orchid Mix, it is specifically intended for use when growing orchid plants. If you are not sure what plants to use with our mix, our experts are always at hand to answer your questions and even give you suggestions of what you could consider planting with our Molly's Orchid Mix. 

How Often Should I Change Molly's Orchid Mix?

Like most of our products, our Molly's Orchid Mix is designed to release nutrients slowly to your plants. This means that you get to enjoy longer periods between changing your Molly's Orchid Mix.  This is not just convenient for you, but it ulcers that your plants have a longer period of uninterrupted growth. Typically, we recommend that you change Molly's Orchid Mix every year. Coincidentally, this is around the same time that experts suggest that you should change pots for your orchids to accommodate changes due to growth. You can take advantage of this to also change the Molly's Orchid Mix. Remember that even if you extend this repotting process for a little longer, your orchids should be completely safe. 

How Does Molly's Orchid Mix Differ from Other Big Box Mixes?

There are many ways that our Molly's Orchid Mix is different from big box varieties of mixes. For starters, our Molly's Orchid Mix contains no soil. This is optimal for you because it means that your plants are safe from soil-borne diseases and pests. The second advantage of using Molly's Orchid Mix is that it is designed to optimize drainage and aeration conditions for your orchids. The dynamics around aeration and drainage for potted plants are different from that of plants growing in a garden. Molly's Orchid Mix is designed to protect your plants from conditions that often afflict potted plants. For example, if we look at drainage, there is always the danger that your potted plants will be over-watered. This typically results in root rot and other harmful conditions. When using Molly's Orchid Mix, you can have complete peace of mind that this risk is minimized. Molly's Orchid Mix is designed to drain the water away quickly, ensuring that your plants have just the right amount of moisture. 

How Are Your Production Processes Eco-Friendly?

One of the concerns that plant enthusiasts all around the world have with products such as Molly's Orchid Mix is whether their production impacts nature, especially trees. This is because tree bark is an essential ingredient in the mixes. The good news is that at VeryPlants, we are careful to ensure that we protect our green cover as much as possible. Our raw bark is a by-product of the timber industry, and we use bark from trees from forests that are man-made and completely renewable. None of the bark we use comes from endemic trees or any forest resources that are not renewable. 

Where is Molly's Orchid Mix Manufactured?

Our Molly's Orchid Mix, just like the rest of our products, is manufactured in Montreal, Canada for the Canadian market, and Indianapolis, USA for the American market.  This gives you the guarantee that they adhere to the highest quality standards possible. It is not just the manufacturing processes that are of the highest quality, all our ingredients are also carefully selected to ensure that your ix delivers the results that you are looking for. All the ingredients that we use in our products are listed on the bag, so you know exactly what you are using to pot your plants.
