Jack's Classic Orchid Special 30-10-10 is a professional-grade, water-soluble fertilizer specifically formulated for orchids grown in porous bark-based media such as fir bark mixes. This high-nitrogen formula is designed to support vigorous vegetative growth, lush green foliage, and healthy root development while compensating for the natural nitrogen depletion that occurs as bark media breaks down over time.
Ideal for orchids during active growth stages, this concentrated formula delivers fast-absorbing nutrients along with a complete package of essential micronutrients to support overall plant health, vibrant leaves, and stronger growth.
Its versatile feeding capability allows growers to apply it as both a root drench and foliar spray for efficient nutrient absorption and improved plant performance.

Designed for Bark-Based Orchid Media
Orchids grown in fir bark and other coarse media often require additional nitrogen because the natural breakdown of bark materials can temporarily tie up available nitrogen in the root zone. Jack’s Classic Orchid Special is specifically formulated to address this issue by providing elevated nitrogen levels that support both the plant and the biological processes occurring within bark mixes.
The result is healthier foliage, stronger root systems, and more vigorous plant growth.
Complete Micronutrient Support
In addition to its high nitrogen content, Orchid Special includes a balanced blend of chelated micronutrients that help support chlorophyll production, nutrient metabolism, and overall orchid health. This helps maintain deep green leaves and encourages stronger, more resilient plants.
Versatile Feeding Applications
This dual-action fertilizer can be applied as a traditional root drench or as a foliar spray, allowing orchids to absorb nutrients efficiently through both the roots and foliage for faster plant response and improved nutrient availability.
More Than Just Orchids
While specifically formulated for orchids, the high-nitrogen nutrient profile also makes this fertilizer highly effective for turf, ornamental grasses, tropical foliage plants, and other heavy nitrogen-feeding plants grown indoors or outdoors.
