What are the methods of leaf propagation of Cymbidium?

Cymbidium is a kind of flower that has been loved by people since ancient times. Many people will plant an elegant pot of orchid at home. In fact, the leaves of Cymbidium can be propagated. Let's take a look at the method of leaf reproduction of Cymbidium.

First, select leaves

For the leaves inserted and used in the orchid, it is best to take the undamaged and well-growing leaves from the roots, scrub the soil and other attachments with a small toothbrush and put them aside for use.

2. Prepare basin soil

The drainage of the basin selected for leaf insertion is better, the soil quality should be higher than that of air permeability, and the soil mixed with sand and gravel with pine needles can be used, and the mixing ratio is 5:5. The air permeability of pine needle is relatively high, sand and gravel can help the plant to take root, so the prepared soil accords with the growth habit of the plant and can improve the survival rate.

Third, carry on the cutting

When cutting, slowly cut along the edge of the pot, be careful not to damage the leaves of the plant. Do not insert too deep, insert six to eight centimeters, not too much watering, just keep the soil moist.

IV. Post-maintenance

After the leaves are cut for a week, you can see that the base of the leaves begins to crack, and this is why it is taking root. After the root system grows out, slowly increase the amount of water. Be careful not to be exposed to the sun for a long time before taking root. Just keep astigmatism for two to three hours a day.

The method of leaf reproduction of Cymbidium is relatively simple, as long as the leaves are healthy and healthy, it is easy to breed new Cymbidium, which must be taken good care of.
