OBTAINING THE ORCHID CHILD FROM ORCHIDS

Cytokinin paste is a hormone for plants.
Most often it is used by orchid lovers.
But you can use it for plants such as:
citrus, hibiscus, succulents, roses, senpolia, figs, begonias - I do not know the whole list of plants.

The basis of the cytokinin paste is cytokinin (6-benzylaminopurine).
Also paste contains vitamins and nutrients useful for plants (penetrant).

KeikiGrow Plus is a Canadian remedy that is identical to a cytokinin paste.

In Rossia, some do the cytokinin paste themselves.
Here on the Internet I found a recipe for its preparation:

"The drug based on phytohormones can be prepared from the leaves of the century, another name is scarlet tree, this plant is able to produce cytokinins in the shortest time." How to prepare the drug:

1. Cut the adult leaf, rinse well with running water.
2. Turn the sheet into a plastic film, place it in a dark place at a temperature of + 4 ° C for two weeks.
3. Cut the leaf into slices, lay them in glassware, fill with medical alcohol, close the lid.
4. Clean the resulting extract from the impurities with filter paper after 24 hours.

After all these manipulations, an analogue of the 6-BAP is obtained. The method of preparation of the stimulant on its basis is the same as for the cytokinin paste. One gram of paste is enough to process 200 plants. "

I used the shop paste.
I decided to try for 1 Orchid (2 ways) and 1 Dendrobium.

Here is a photo of my result, method No. 1

Photos of my method № 2

But this method, in the end result, did not yield results.
Tsvetonos gradually began to turn yellow and moldy from 2 sides and, as a result, the awakened kidney died ...
Maybe one of you will succeed.
Experience on dendrobium:
I gave this process a little more growth and then carefully separated it and planted it.
And, after a while he died ...
In this case, I think that I made a mistake somewhere - probably in watering ...
Maybe I did not need to separate the baby from the bulb, and plant them together.

So I will talk about method № 1

How I did it (in the instructions it is written):
I very carefully, with a toothpick, cleaned the top layer of the closed kidney on the faded orchid stalk.
Then a clean (another) toothpick took a paste, about 0.2 mm. and applied to the cleared (opened) kidney on the peduncle.
After about 2 weeks, the kidney "woke up"
I watched with great interest and impatience the growth of the "awakened kidney"!
It was my first experience !!!
Now, from the photo, you can also see the growth of the kidneys.

Final result:
The baby grew up.
And this baby gave a flower spike!
On the peduncle there were 3 buds, of which only 2 flowers blossomed (3rd yellowed and fell off ...).
This baby still feels great on the peduncle, but does not want to give roots stubbornly! (And why should she work?) It's so nice and comfortable to sit on Mom !!! :-)
