I have successfully experimented fertilizing Scorpion Orchid (Arachnis Maggie) solely with dead leaves of jack (Artocarpus Integrifolia) trees abundantly available in my garden. No chemical fertilizers were used. I am careful not to allow fungal growth to set in by controlling watering.

The orchid was planted in a 20 litre can full of coconut husks and dead jack leaves left outdoors and watered if found dry.

I am trying it also with other orchids using wads of dead leaves in the pot and tucked in axils.

I wish to see your comments.
