When planting Dendrobium officinale, the choice of flowerpot and soil is very important. The material of the flowerpot needs to be breathable and have drainage holes at the bottom. The substrate can be stones, bark, or sawdust. It must be disinfected before planting. Plant the seedlings in the center of the pot, pile bark and sawdust at the roots, and compact the surrounding substrate tightly. After planting, water the pot thoroughly and place it in a shaded place with astigmatism, paying attention to good ventilation.
1. Select pots and soil
If you want to grow Dendrobium officinale well, the choice of flower pots and soil is very important. The material of the flower pots needs to be breathable, and there are no fixed requirements. It is best to use earthenware pots or pottery pots with drainage holes at the bottom to facilitate the normal flow of water. The height and diameter are about 10 centimeters, and the overall size should match the size of the plant. Small seedlings cannot be used in large pots. The choice of substrate is quite special. No soil is needed, bark is sufficient. The bottom of the flowerpot is padded with coarse stones, small particles are used in the middle, and there are bark and sawdust on top. 2. Start planting
Before planting, sterilize the substrate first, plant the seedlings in the center of the flower pot, and then pile bark and sawdust at the roots. Do not bury them too deep, just make sure to cover the roots. Yes, slowly compact the surrounding matrix.
3. Subsequent maintenance
After planting, water the flower pot thoroughly to soak all the bark and sawdust inside, and then control the excess water out, and do not put it in the flower pot. There is moisture accumulation at the bottom of the basin. Choose a good place to place it, place it in a shaded place with astigmatism, avoid exposure to strong sunlight, and pay attention to good ventilation conditions. You can also choose to spray potassium dihydrogen phosphate on the leaves to supplement nutrients.
