What fertilizer to use for potted Dendrobium

1. What fertilizer to use

When fertilizing this type of plant, do not use liquid fertilizer, but use granular compound fertilizer instead, so that the soil of the plant can slowly absorb the nutrients of the fertilizer; you can also spray some special fertilizer on the leaves of the plant, which can also supplement the nutrients needed by the plant. If you grow this type of plant outdoors, you can use chemical fertilizers, but if you grow it indoors, you should use homemade bean cake water fertilizer. In addition, in terms of the time of fertilizing, apply some fertilizer to the plant when it is about to bloom and after the flowers fade. Add some fertilizer to the plant in spring when it begins to sprout and grow leaves. Reduce the amount of fertilizer for the plant in summer and autumn.

2. Breeding methods

1. Seeds: Place the selected seeds with full grains in a place with weak sunlight for a few hours, and then soak them in water for 12 hours. This will speed up the germination of the seeds after sowing.

2. Sowing: Dig a small hole in the shallow layer of the flowerpot to sow the seeds, then cover it with a layer of soil. After completion, pour some water around the edge of the flowerpot and place it in a place with good air circulation. The plant will sprout in about a week.

3. Watering: After the seeds germinate, it is just right to water them once a week.
