Here’s how to propagate orchids abundantly so you don’t have to buy them again

Cut the keiki about 3-5 from the stem of the flower and plant it in the same pot. The roots should point downward and be lightly covered with soil. The piece of flower stem that we cut also needs to be buried. It can be folded into the ground like an anchor.

Once grown, the keiki can be separated from the mother plant with great care.

How to propagate orchids with cuttings
To cut the stem of the plant and remove the cuttings, we need a waterproof container about 8 centimeters deep. Fill it with sand or sphagnum, both well moistened.

Using a sharp knife, cut a stem about 30 centimeters from the mother plant. Divide into several 3-inch sections, making sure each cutting has a dormant bud.
Add moss or sand to the bowl and moisten it. Place the cuttings in the tray, cover with plastic wrap and store in a place at 15°C and away from direct sunlight.
After a few weeks you can increase the temperature to around 24-30 degrees. Remember to sprinkle water on the tray to keep it consistently moist, but don’t overdo it.
Once shoots and roots have formed, cut the cutting back with a sharp knife.
Get a few small pots to plant the new seedlings in. It is ideal to plant them in a mixture of bark, volcanic soil and well-moistened spagnum moss.
Plant the orchid with the buds facing up.
Place the new orchids hatched with thalers in a bright place but not exposed to the sun.
Water regularly, but do not overdo it to prevent the plant from rotting.
Keep the plant in a humid environment and away from direct heat sources.
