When the orchid enters its adult stage, it can grow new buds, break them off and cultivate them into new plants. this is called asexual reproduction of Cymbidium, which can be divided into stem lateral buds, stem bottom buds and inter-leaf buds according to the position of the buds. When the buds grow to 6 Mel and 7 leaves, the stem bottom buds and lateral buds can be treated at the same time, and the ramet time should be carried out at the same time in spring and autumn. Because of the low temperature in this season, the ramet wound is not easy to infect and rot. On the other hand, the inter-leaf buds must wait for the leaves on the bud side to fall off naturally until all the buds are exposed before they can be considered for treatment, when the buds generally grow larger.

The method of ramet: sprout cutting or hand sprouting can be adopted. The cutting ramet is mostly used for the bottom bud of the stem, and the connecting part of the daughter plant and the mother plant is large, so it is not easy to make the bud with root by hand-breaking, so cut off the newly needed rhizome with a knife, which can improve the survival rate of the bud. Hand-breaking buds are mostly used for stem lateral buds or inter-leaf buds, because these two kinds of buds are on the outside of the stem, holding the false bulb of the mother plant with one hand and the base of the bud with the other, breaking gently, paying special attention to keeping some roots on the new plant, so that it is easy to survive. Be sure to smear and disinfect the wound with plant ash, charcoal powder or purple potion, and dry for 5 hours until the wound is dry, and then install the plate. Pay attention to the nutrient soil near the wound to mix some river sand, watering is not too large, this is conducive to wound recovery as soon as possible, to prevent ulceration.
