The best time for orchid ramet germination rate and strong seedling rate

Author: Yinxiang Lord

We all know that it will take place in spring and autumn, but none of the monographs has mentioned the best time, including none of the artists.

As we all know, orchids are mainly propagated by ramets. Of course, this work is also carried out in spring and autumn. However, have you ever thought about one detail? there is an obvious difference in germination rate and strong seedling rate between these two seasons. What I'm talking about here only refers to Jiangsu and Zhejiang Chunlan and Huilan. Do you feel the orchid introduced in autumn? Is it much better than the germination rate and strong seedling rate introduced in spring, and the bluegrass introduced in the first and middle of September is better?

In the practice of the past few years, I think the work of turning the basin and ramet should start in the first and middle of September, because after the flower bud is formed, the orchid plant has basically matured and it has returned to vegetative growth, and at this time the new bud has not yet been formed. it is precisely at this time that turning the pot ramet can stimulate bluegrass to quickly form new bud points within a month, while the temperature is OK, and bluegrass is still growing slowly. By November, the new buds will be very big. After a winter dormancy to the beginning of spring, it is difficult for the bud to be strong. On the contrary, when bluegrass is turned over in spring, bluegrass is hurt by turning pot and ramets as soon as it wakes up. It is necessary to have a recovery period of half a month and a month, and the bud may also be accidentally harmed. It is conceivable that this bud will not turn the pot in autumn.

In addition, the sprouts that turn pots in early autumn can be unearthed as early as February or March. Huangmei season is already half-grass, and there will be stacked buds in May and June, and it will be big grass again in August. So after the practice over the past few years, this experience is quite correct. Today, I would like to dedicate this tip to you. I think it will be of some help to you.

Remember the best time to turn the pot and split the plant in mid-September, and you don't have to worry about the effect of turning the pot one month earlier on the grass roots. In fact, a month earlier not only has no effect on the orchid, but also has a lot of benefits to the growth of the coming year. If you think there is something wrong, please criticize and correct us to raise the orchid better tomorrow!
