Exploration of drug dwarfing

Modern cities are full of tall buildings, and the old courtyard-style bungalows have become towering high-rise buildings, the living environment has changed, and the space has become smaller. In the past, people liked to use large potted plants and tall orchids, but now they are gradually turning into short varieties. At present, whether it is "Hua Lan" or "Yilan", its short variety is very popular, and many people at home and abroad appreciate the "dwarf orchid" with strong and short plant type and broad leaves.

What are the characteristics of dwarf orchids

Dwarf orchids were developed in Taiwan. A rare dwarf orchid "Danxia orchid" was discovered in Danxia Mountain, Guangdong Province in 1987, a rare dwarf species "Damolan" found in Taiwan's Damo Temple in 1973, and another precious dwarf species "Guanyin Orchid" produced in Taiwan more than a decade ago. they are the most expensive orchids in the world. In Taiwan and Hong Kong, each plant has been bid for more than HK $1 million.

Dwarf orchids are characterized by short plant types (it is generally believed that their height is not more than 20 cm), broad and thick leaves, dark green leaves, short petioles, obvious bulbs (pseudobulbs), and leaf tips are mostly obtuse or shield-round or fruiting-like round.

The famous products of dwarf orchids are more than dwarf species plus strange flowers and leaves, or short, strange and artistic. Strange leaves refer to the leaves that are particularly thick, curly, and the tip of the leaves contract so that the orchid leaves are spoon-shaped, with longitudinal or horizontal foliage, uneven ups and downs, some like toad skin, and also uneven smooth leaves. Now the dwarf orchid has the age orchid, four season orchid and Qiu Hui and so on, take the age dwarf orchid as the precious.

As the market demand for dwarf orchids is becoming more and more expensive, how to cultivate dwarf orchids cannot but arouse the interest of orchid farmers and flower farmers. There are three ways: first, to find and explore new treasures and common products from wild resources; second, to study the method of rapid reproduction from the existing famous products of dwarf orchids; and third, to select medium-short and broad leaves from "Jia Lan" or "Luoshan Orchid". Dwarf with scientific methods and chemical drugs.

Chemical drug grafting test

Chemists of series products such as red and green flower fertilizer in Rose Garden in Shantou City, with the assistance of their horticulturists, began to study the dwarfing of orchids in March 1991 following the successful cultivation of Chinese orchid with the new method of red and green flower fertilizer. After scientific experiment, comparison and screening, we finally found an effective way to restrain the elongation of orchid leaves and turn the leaves into dark green. And the formula and method of "dwarf orchid agent" for plant type shortening.

This formula contains dwarf orchid medicine and nutrients for the growth of dwarf plants, and its solution is sprayed on new leaf buds and the whole plant every 10-15 days. The effect has been seen after spraying for four months. Compared with the same batch of orchids, the height is obviously different. Among the 25 tested plants, only two are more than 20 cm tall and the others are shorter than 20 cm. The efficiency of dwarfing is 92%, the leaves are thickened and hardened, and the corms are obviously formed.

Chaoshan orchid farmers give full play to their ingenuity and successfully create a "dwarf orchid agent" to fill the gaps in the domestic and Hong Kong markets. Because it is also suitable for the dwarfing of general flowers and plants, it is named "red and green flowers and plants dwarfing agent".

It must be pointed out that most scientific creations and inventions still need to be continuously improved, supplemented and improved in use or practice, and dwarf orchid agent is the same, and it is effective to be used in non-scholar cultivation. As for the dwarfing treatment, in addition to spraying the new leaf buds with the solution mentioned above, the method of soaking the orchid head can also be used. In addition to spraying green leaf products, some dwarf orchids can be obtained if online Yilan is sprayed.
