The cuttings of crab claw orchid take root for 10 days and blossom in a full pot than leaves.

Many people like crab claw orchid, it has many varieties, the color is also more diversified, the flowers are chic, often blooming in groups, very spectacular and beautiful! Like growing flowers, I believe I will also like cutting propagation!

If you want to breed crab claw orchid, you can cut it in this way, take root in 10 days, rub it all over the pot, and blossom more than leaves.

If there is a pot of crab claw orchid at home, you can use the trimmed crab claw orchid leaves for cutting.

Take 3-5 nodes of healthy green and full crab claw orchid leaves and cut them to dry. It is recommended to apply some rooting powder before cutting to speed up rooting.

The matrix can be made of peat soil and coarse sand, which is more conducive to the rooting of crab claw orchids. Insert the treated leaves into the matrix and place them in a cool and astigmatic place. In order to speed up rooting, you can cover it with a plastic bag to keep warm and moisturizing. During the period, pay attention to watering, about 10 days can take root! (how to judge whether to take root or not: squeeze the leaf with your hand, the leaf is no longer soft, it means it has survived.)

After the root system grows a little more, move the basin (basin soil: it can be garden soil + mature pine needle soil + a small amount of organic base fertilizer).

Daily nursing after basin removal

After the crab claw orchid fully returns to growth, it is necessary to place the crab claw orchid in a sunny place. Crab claw orchid is a short-day plant (short sunshine: light time is less than 12 hours). It needs 8-10 hours of light every day to make its leaves grow smoothly and become greener and fuller.

Not only should there be sufficient light, but nutrients should also be replenished after resuming growth. from spring to early summer, it is mainly nitrogen fertilizer (uremia is a good nitrogen fertilizer, which can be buried in the soil every 10 days), which can accelerate the growth of leaves. Enter July and August, when the temperature is higher, it is not suitable to apply fertilizer!

In September and October, fertilizer should be resumed. At this time, it is necessary to give priority to phosphorus and potassium fertilizer in order to make the crab claw orchid blossom smoothly. 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution can be sprayed every 10 days for 2-3 consecutive times, which will have obvious effect.

After budding, do not repeatedly move the flowerpot (easy to drop buds), to maintain sufficient light, there will be flowers at the end of the year!
