How does orchid spring promote germinate?

To propagate iris flower division, suitable plants should be selected, and 3-4 years old adult plants with good growth state should be selected. Take the plant out of the flowerpot, observe the position of the root, select a clean and disinfected knife, divide the tuber at the bottom, ensure that each plant has 1-2 leaf buds, dry and apply plant ash at the incision. Prepare potting soil, potting the divided tubers, not too deep when planting, watering after planting, and then pay attention to good maintenance.

1. Provision of nutrition

If you want orchids to sprout in the spring, you should provide them with enough nutrients.Specifically, it is in the spring before it germinates, for it to change the plant material, with sufficient fertility, soft and breathable new plant material.Then, when it grows, some compound fertilizers containing more nitrogen elements are applied to it in time.This will stimulate it to grow new buds.

2. Plant division

If the orchid plant is too large, its growth rate will be reduced, and the probability of new shoots will also be reduced.If the orchid is potted and divided into several sub-plants before sprouting, then all the sub-plants are likely to grow new shoots.To sum up, the total number of new buds grown on all the sub-plants after division will be much more than the total number of new buds grown on the old plant.

3. Hormone promoting germination

There are some hormones that can promote the cell division and growth of orchids, thus promoting it to grow more new buds.Treating an orchid plant in the spring with these hormones can also help increase the number of new shoots it produces.

4. Moderate Trimming

For spring flowering orchids, after their flowers have withered, cutting off the residual flowers on the plant in time can also help the plant save a lot of nutrients.This way, when it comes time to sprout, the plant will have more nutrients to use for germination, resulting in more buds.
