Matters needing attention in Orchid Hybridization
1. The male parent and the female parent should be carefully selected before crossbreeding, and if the origin is unknown or the correctness of the variety is in doubt, it is not suitable to cross, otherwise it will confuse the variety system, affect the genetic judgment, and have no academic value in breeding. two。 If the orchid plant is not strong enough, do not cross forcibly, because after successful hybridization, nutrients are consumed very much and it is easy to damage the plant. If crossbreeding can be carried out, it is not appropriate to be greedy, generally 2-3 is appropriate, it is best to cross only 1. This concentration of nutrients contributes to the development of the capsule. 3. Not every cross can be successful. Such as poor hybridization technology, immature pollen or poor care in the culture process, may lead to failure, or even bear a capsule, but there are no seeds in the fruit. In addition, the complex strains of orchids, the maturity of orchid plants, the season and time of hybridization and other factors will affect the success or failure of mating. 4. When a variety is crossed as a female parent, it will gradually decay and die, or affect the flowering quality of the following year. If there is this phenomenon, this variety is not suitable to be a female parent, but can only be a male parent. 5. Orchids have fixed genetic characteristics, regardless of the size of the flowers, the future offspring will inherit the characteristics of their parents, not because the flowers will become smaller in the future. 6. When pollinating and crossing, you must clearly record the name of your parents, hang a famous brand, and record the time of hybridization as a reference for sowing.
