Pot planting technique of Dendrobium (Hua you)

In fact, the pot technology of Dendrobium is not so mysterious, this paper is the pot cultivation method of Dendrobium summarized by Hua you, there is no fixed pattern of planting and cultivation of Dendrobium, according to its own geographical location, environment, climate, and flexible. Approximate elements: ventilation, ventilation, light, humidity.

[plant material ratio]: the traditional plant material of Dendrobium is bark + brick (blue stone), and the fermented bark is better.

The method taught by teachers who have more than ten years of experience in raising Dendrobium: using charcoal particles + red brick grains (blue stone, or ceramsite) + broken bark, practice has proved that the effect is good.

Briefly introduce the method of operation: all plants should be soaked in water (soaked overnight) before use, in order to maintain the humidity needed by the roots of Dendrobium, which is beneficial to the growth of new roots and buds, because it is difficult to get wet immediately after the dry material is watered, resulting in insufficient humidity in the roots. Some flower lovers also often water, but the roots still do not grow new roots, this is the reason.

After preparing the material, choose a basin with good permeability, and put large bricks (foam blocks) at the bottom to facilitate water permeability and air permeability.

Then put in the mixed plant material to fix Dendrobium (shallow species, the root can not be buried deeply), Dendrobium is aerial root, the root exposure is beneficial to growth, compacted plant material, poured through water. Pot species Dendrobium must not be too much water, once every four days or so (to avoid rotting roots), watering according to weather conditions, the principle is to dry before watering. Dendrobium candidum is usually watered once a day, twice in the morning and evening in summer, and can not be watered at high temperature at noon.

In spring, the humidity in the south is higher than that in the south. Dendrobium needs proper sunlight, and scattered light is the best. Amoy rice water is fermented as fertilizer and watered once or twice a week.
