For orchids give them some nice roomy medium, I read once about a wiffle ball technique where you put a wiffle ball underneath the stem to ensure airflow at the roots. I don’t have any wiffle balls whenever I’ve repotted, so I usually just do a bark “core” and then a slim wrap around the roots with wet sphagnam moss, and fill in any extra room in the pot with more bark. I soak the orchids in water to the base of their leaves like once every two weeks for 15 minutes in lukewarm to warm water, and put a tiny bit of orchid fertilizer in the mix every few months or so. I put them somewhere that is warm with a lot of indirect light. My oldest ones are I think 5 now, so it’s been working alright for me. I’ve also stopped trying to make them be upright because they naturally lean over, so I just put them however they look comfortable in the pot.
Same.
