How does orchid divide a plant to send rate tall (divide a plant to note an introduction)

Avocado is a tropical plant, water demand is relatively high, in its growth period to ensure adequate water, so that the plant will grow healthily, once the climate is dry, it is easy to wilt. In addition to regular watering in summer, it is also necessary to spray water properly, which can play a role in cooling. Winter watering can be reduced appropriately, but also pay attention to water temperature, can not use cold water for irrigation.

Generally speaking, after two or three years of cultivation of orchids, it will be full of pots. At this time, in order to improve the rate of germination and the number of breeding varieties, and promote the healthy growth of orchids, it is possible to consider starting plant division.Timely division can also prevent an orchid from getting sick and infecting other healthy seedlings.

1. Time

Orchid division should be carried out at a relatively warm time, the temperature between 12-30 degrees is appropriate.In addition to considering temperature, the best time to divide orchids is at the end of the flowering period.Because at this time, the growing point of the new bud of the plant has not expanded, and the flower bud will not grow again, so that the probability of damaging the plant can be reduced as far as possible when the plant is divided.

2. Depotting

Before potting the orchids that need to be divided, it is necessary to stop watering for a few days so that the plant materials of the plants become dry and loose, which is convenient for potting.When taking off the pot, pay attention not to take off the pot by violence, do not grab the orchid and pull it out, you can directly pour out the plant material to take off the pot, so as to avoid hurting the orchid seedlings and buds.

3. Root washing

Take out the orchid seedling and wash it under tap water. After the substrate is completely washed away, put it in a cool and ventilated place to dry.Appropriate light can also stimulate the dormant buds of orchid plants and promote germination in the later period.

4. Ramet

Comb the root system of the plant, take the second or third generation of the conjoined body as a unit, find the division point, use sharp scissors to cut it slowly, wait until the plant is completely separated and then cut the second time.Note that before pruning, the pruning tools need to be sterilized.After the division is completed, some old roots, rotten roots and diseased leaves are cut off, and then fungicides such as carbendazim are sprayed on the wound to prevent some pathogens from invading the plant from the wound.

5. Planting

After the wound of the orchid is treated, it can be potted separately.Attention should be paid to the selection of flowerpots with drainage holes and loose and breathable plant materials, which should be sterilized and disinfected before use.On the basin, do not fill in the plant material, you can expose the wound to the next one or two centimeters, to promote wound recovery.Wait a week or two before completely covering the plant material.
