The reproduction method of yellow cicada orchid

Like ordinary orchids, the propagation methods of yellow cicada orchids are basically divided into two types: dividing plants and sowing seeds.

Ramet

The ramet of yellow cicada orchid can be carried out in both spring and autumn. The yellow cicada orchid with dense pseudobulm can be divided as long as the plant grows healthily. The irrigation times of yellow cicada orchid should be reduced before splitting in order to make the basin soil dry. After the split on the basin, first covered with broken tiles on the bottom of the basin, and then covered with coarse gravel, and then put coarse-grained soil and a small amount of fine soil, and then planted with humus-rich sandy loam, the edge of the basin left 2 cm along the mouth, covered with green grass or fine stones after pouring water, put in a cool place for half a month, keep the soil moist, and gradually begin to maintain normally.

Sowing seeds

Yellow cicada orchid needs to use orchid or artificial medium to provide nutrients before it can germinate. Sowing it is best to choose uncracked fruit, first sterilize the surface with 75% alcohol, take out the seed, soak it in 10% sodium hypochlorite for a while, then rinse with sterile water, and then sow it in a culture bottle with culture medium. Then put it in a dark culture room and keep the temperature at about 25 degrees until the seeds germinate and then move to natural light.

Yellow cicada orchid's diseases and insect pests are basically these three, and its breeding methods are these two. I hope that the "sweetheart" of friends who have yellow cicada orchids at home will not get the above diseases! And if you have the conditions and want to raise yellow cicada orchids, you might as well try one now!

Air requirements for culture methods of yellow cicada orchid

Yellow cicada orchid likes shade, likes to be moist, and avoids dryness, so it is more suitable to plant in a well-ventilated environment.

Soil requirement

Yellow cicada orchid is suitable for sandy loam with good drainage and rich in humus, such as rotten leaf soil or mountain soil. It can also be used in slightly acidic loose soil or iron-containing soil with a pH value between 5.56.5 and 5.56.5.It is also possible to use loose soil or iron-containing soil.

Temperature requirement

The suitable temperature for growth of yellow cicada orchid is between 15 ℃ and 30 ℃. If the temperature is too low, below 5 ℃, it will affect the growth of yellow cicada orchid, making it in a dormant state, and if it is not transferred in time, frostbite will occur; otherwise, the temperature is too high, above 35 ℃, the yellow cicada orchid will grow poorly, and if coupled with sunlight exposure, there will be leaf burns or scorching within one or two days.

After knowing what kind of air, soil and temperature are most suitable for the cultivation of yellow cicada orchid, let's take a look at what we need to pay attention to when raising yellow cicada orchid.
