Without these microorganisms you run a risk of burning the roots and the urea is useless anyway, the main reason for fertilising is for nitrogen so if you don't have the right potting mix you'd be better to use urea free fert, this seems to be the general consensus, I use urea free orchid ferts
I use a Mycorrhizal Fungi root enhancer that contains 16 different species of mycorrhizal fungi, 14 different species of beneficial bacteria and 2 species of trichoderma
