The method of hydroponic Culture of Dendrobium candidum

I. hydroponic method

1. Choose hydroponic Dendrobium candidum

Before hydroponic culture, the plants suitable for hydroponic culture should be selected first, and the seedlings of Dendrobium candidum which have grown for more than 2 years and have been domesticated are the best, or some branches and buds on the old plants can be cut off.

2. Treatment of hydroponic plants

Wash the selected plant carefully, wash the soil off it, and cut off the rotten root, old root or diseased root, then soak it in a solution with carbendazim to prevent the root wound from being infected by germs. After disinfection, it can be put in a cool place to dry and hydroponics can be carried out.

3. Prepare the hydroponic container

When choosing a hydroponic container, it is best to use a transparent bottle with a neck on it, because this allows Dendrobium candidum to be fully integrated into the water, and if the bottle cannot be found, it can be fixed with duct tape.

4. Conduct hydroponic culture

Put the prepared water plant in the bottle, and then you can start to add water to it. Some plant nutrients can be added appropriately to the water, usually with amino acids or enzymes, Apple Cider Vinegar can also, but no matter which kind, do not put too much, just a small bottle cap. If you don't want to use these, you can also buy nutrient solution directly.

5. Timely change of water and nutrient solution

When hydroponics, you should pay attention to changing water and nutrient solution regularly. If it is spring, the best time is 7 to 10 days. If it is winter, the interval can be longer, because at this time the temperature is low and plants consume less nutrition. It is best to change it every 15 days or so. In summer, it breathes heavily and consumes nutrients quickly, so it needs to change its nutrient solution and water every 4 to 5 days, so it can be hydroponically cultivated.

II. Points for attention

When hydroponics it, we should pay attention to the root can not be completely left in the water, to leave 2/3 outside. In addition, it is necessary to ensure good ventilation.
