    It is like all good things too much is a bad thing . So better to be safe than sorry . Phytotoxicity can be problematic with a lot of different products but does not stop us using them . In reasonable amounts it is completely harmless and very effective , it would really take a lot of overdosing to cause real problems but I have to put disclaimers in . Thank you for your your input . 👍

    depending on the orchid media you are growing in you will need to replace it every second year or so and depending on which type of orchid it is . Phalaenopsis can often grow in the same size container for their entire lives (also depending if you bought it mature or not . )

    oh I certainly would think so . A lot of the micro nutrients and active ingredients in these natural products are often very volatile and other chemical additives will de-activate them . I would suggest you make them at home and use them directly . Rather make smaller quantities that you can use up in a month or so if storing them well . I hope this answers your question .
