How to breed orchids?
First, create conditions, enhance the accumulation of organic matter, improve the vitality of meristem, and lay a good foundation for rapid tillering reproduction. The specific methods can be summarized as follows: open ball planting in loam, air permeability on six sides, dry and moisturizing, frequently shielding from frost and rain, avoiding pollution sources, full light in winter and spring, semi-shading in summer and autumn, early prevention and control of diseases and insect pests, fertilizer as needed, scape early removal, and replenishment after anthesis.
Second, separate plants in autumn and promote their division: in order to enjoy flowers, it is necessary to plant three or four generations together, but the co-planting plants depend on each other, the individual's meristematic ability is not strong, and only the new plants can tiller naturally. If they are separated, scattered and forced to stand on their own feet, the meristematic ability will be exuberant and the germination rate will be high. However, when the plant is divided into monomers, it is often because the original growth of the plant is not strong, and when it is split, it is easy to tear the base of the corm, resulting in rotten stem withering and germination of the new plant is only two leaves, slow growth. For this reason, it is advocated that the two plants should be split into a group, and the two plants should be slightly separated. When dismantling plants, you need to pay attention to apply force to the old bulbs, cut the connectors with a disinfection knife, then cut off the withered roots, broken roots and diseased leaves, plant them in the new blue soil, keep them at a constant temperature for a month, and then raise them normally. Apply more cooked and ground bone powder and spray 800 to 1000 times the liquid of potassium dihydrogen phosphate every week. When the temperature will pick up in spring, spray one thousand to 1500 times the liquid every week, one of "Aidoushou", "Gaochengling", "Yemianbao", "Yihuabao" or one of the budding agents, apply alternately. And give more light (or light simulation light), pay attention to heat preservation. In this way, a gratifying germination rate can be achieved.
