Dendrobium officinale planting technology

1. Planting method

The best time to plant Dendrobium officinale is spring. The planting location needs to be selected in a semi-shaded and semi-sunny place. Planting generally adopts the method of division propagation. First, choose a disease-free Dendrobium mother plant, and then cut the rhizome of about 2 years old from it. After that, cut off the old branches and leave new roots 2-3cm long. When planting, it is best to plant it close to stones or big trees.

2. Post-maintenance

1. Water: It likes growing conditions with high air humidity, so when breeding it, you need to spray it with water frequently to increase the humidity.

2. Top dressing: If the soil where it is planted is relatively poor, top dressing is needed frequently to provide it with the nutrients it needs for growth.

3. Lighting: It has strict requirements on lighting. It likes semi-shady growing conditions. The sunlight cannot be too little or too strong, otherwise it will affect its growth. Therefore, it is necessary to trim the trees around it frequently to adjust the shading degree.
