Did you know that you can have your own orchid just by planting its leaf in the ground? With just the right treatment, you can ensure impeccable growth and expand your plant collection effortlessly.
Let’s take a look and learn how to master this easy technique:
– Pruning shears (sharp).
– Lawn stretcher.
– Plastic container.
– Filtered water.
– Fertilizers: root, activated charcoal, cytokinin paste, and succinic acid.
– Start by using a sharp pruning shear to separate the leaf along with a bit of the stem
– Allow the leaf around 8 hours to dry and activate the dormant node
– You can proceed to encourage root formation using a root trainer
– Prepare a solution by placing mixing an activated charcoal tablet in a glass of water
– Immerse the stem in that mixture and make sure the shoot neck is well submerged in the water
