LOL Ken ... I used to water plants to death but years ago I began mixing potting soil with the orchid bark stuff and adding more perlite for drainage. I don't use extra perlite anymore but I am really bad about watering plants. I have a LOT of plants and I'm surprised they stay alive with the lack of care they get from me but they seem to adapt; even the orchids, although they tend to look a bit ratty when they are left hanging out in the trees where they get bitten by bugs, knocked around by squirrels and sometimes end up on the ground or even partially eaten by the critters.
