How to divide the plants of Cymbidium and points for attention

In general, after 3-4 years of growth, the orchid will grow a lot of small buds in the rhizome, less than 1, more than a dozen. And if these small buds are transplanted into ramets, after proper maintenance, they will grow into magnolia and blossom after 1-2 years.

When the first leaf of the plant grows to 5-8 years old, it can be divided into pots according to the variety and size, select the pot and match the soil, two to four plants in each pot, two high-quality plants, and transplant according to the actual situation, and do not wait until April to combine with soil change and then transplant, the plant is too big to transplant, and the seedlings can be transplanted in 2.3 months, which has no effect on the late growth of seedlings.

After growing for a period of time, the orchid will tiller young plants around the mother plant, and after transplanting it will become a tree again. The specific practices are as follows:

The main results are as follows: 1. The seedlings should not be transplanted too early, the root system is not produced too early, it is not easy to survive; it is not too late, too late to consume the nutrition of the mother plant, because the growth space is limited, it is easy to lead to leaf deformities. The most suitable time is when the young plant grows to four or five leaves, when the root system of the young plant has been formed and can survive directly after transplanting.

2. When transplanting, the basin soil should be cleaned next to the young plant to expose the connection with the mother plant. Cut off with a sharp blade and gently raise the root system of the young plant. Apply plant ash to dry the knife edge and plant it in wet humus soil to avoid strong light.

3. Some young plants will grow in the leaf axils. When this kind of young plant tillers, it is necessary to peel off the outer layer of the mother plant leaves, and then follow the previous steps.

The ramet process of Cymbidium:

1. Separate the tillers (foot buds) of more than 15 cm around the rhizome of the mother plant, plant them in a small basin, pour enough water and put them in the shade.

2. Move to semi-shade after a week. If the seedling has no root, you can use B12 liquid to coat the cut, and then insert the base in a clean sand basin. Because there is no root, it is easy to fall down. You can make a fixed frame like a lamp hook with electric wire, put the leaf in the hook ring, insert the handle in the sand, and cover it with a transparent plastic bag. The water content of the basin sand is kept at about 50%, put in the shade, the temperature is kept at 20-25 degrees Celsius, and new roots can grow after 20-35 days, and then cultivated in the basin.

3. The ramet should not be too small and too big, the growth is slow, and too large will affect the growth of the mother plant. The management of the mother plant after ramet should also be strengthened, and the incision should be coated with charcoal powder or plant ash, and the moisture should be properly controlled and fertilizer should be applied within one month after ramet to make it grow healthily.

4. It can also be combined with the split when turning the pot. When cultivating one-year-old seedlings, it is suitable for 3 inch pots. Change 5-inch pots in the second year, and then change into larger flowerpots every 1-2 years, usually after flowering in spring.

Matters needing attention for ramet:

1. The ramet time should be from April to June every year, but be careful not to break the root system.

2. It is best to have roots when cutting axillary buds. After cutting, fungicides should be applied to the wounds of mother plants and small buds.

3. After the buds are put on the basin, watering should be controlled and placed in a shady place, which can be managed normally after half a month.
