Tiger Pilan is heartbroken. Can it be saved?

1. Unable to save life

If Tiger Pilan has a rotten heart, it cannot be saved. The leaves of this kind of plant are thick and broad, and its vitality is very tenacious, but if even the leaf heart is rotten, then it cannot be completely saved. It can only be replanted by cutting and planting new plants for conservation, and the original plant can not be saved.

2. Cuttings treatment

Remove the rotten tiger skin orchid from the soil, find the rotten part of its plant, dig it off with a sharp sterilized knife, be sure to cut it all, and then select the healthy leaves and cut them into small pieces about 5 centimeters in length. After disinfection, leave it in the shade to dry for a period of time.

3. Cutting steps

Take out the cuttings where there is no excess water left, smear the cuttings with rooting powder, then insert them into the matrix of soft sand and peat soil, pour some water to keep the soil slightly moist, and these leaves will grow into complete roots in about 30 days.

4. Maintenance work

After cutting tiger skin orchid leaves, it should be noted that the amount of water should not be too much when watering for the first time, just keep the soil slightly wet, pay attention to do not splash water on the wound of the plant, pay attention to proper shading, make the plant in a semi-shaded place, strengthen ventilation to prevent decay, and transplant after the root system is complete.
