2. Is the reproductive survival rate high?

There are many methods for propagating domestic Dendrobium officinale, but sowing is rarely used because the germination rate of seeds is not high. Division is more commonly used. Select a strong plant and take it out of the pot. Find the base of the old root cluster and use a knife to divide it for cultivation. For Dendrobium officinale that has grown for several years, it can be propagated by splitting buds, and the small buds that have grown can be broken off and planted. You can also cut strong branch segments and place them under scattered light to wait for rooting.

1. How to reproduce

1. Sowing: This method is not commonly used. The germination rate of seeds is not high, so it is not recommended to use this method. If you want to use this method, you can collect the seeds and sow them.

2. Division: Division is a commonly used method, and it is also very convenient to propagate at home. Select a strong plant and take it out of the flower pot. Find the base of the old root cluster and separate it with a knife. Be careful not to damage the root system during the process. Then prepare a suitable substrate and plant the separated plants in it.

3. Split buds: For Dendrobium officinale that has grown for several years Generally speaking, they grow vigorously, and new shoots may grow at the top or base, and there are roots on the new shoots. This plant is very suitable for dividing the buds, breaking off the small buds that have grown, and then planting them in flower pots.

4. Cutting: Before cutting, you must first prepare the substrate, which must be breathable and loose. Then select a plant with strong growth and cut off branch segments from above. Each segment must have 2-3 nodes. Apply a little plant ash to the incision. Insert the branch segment into the substrate and place it under diffused light to wait for rooting.

2. Is the reproductive survival rate high?

When propagating Dendrobium at home, except for the survival rate of sowing, which is difficult to guarantee, the survival rates of other methods are relatively high.
