Posted this over at AQ, too...
I've searched around a bit, but I'm not quite getting the info I'm looking for.
I'm interested in growing a number of the more common Sri Lankan crypts (specifically, parva, walkeri, wendtii, becketii) emersed, and I'm curious what would be an ideal substrate. Would peat + sand be TOO acidic? And what are your thoughts on drainage holes for pots versus no drainage holes (these would mainly serve for root aeration, yes?)?
Thanks,
Dave
