How to propagate an orchid from a leaf. (Page 2 ) | November 14, 2023

The process of propagating an orchid from a leaf is one of the most complex and slow: the roots can take more than a year to develop.

The leaf to be propagated must be taken from a healthy adult plant. Use the scissors to cut the leaf and the piece of trunk, then let it dry for 8 hours.

Next, pour some rooting agent over the leaf and the piece of trunk. Dissolve some activated charcoal in water and then put the leaf and stem in the solution. The neck of the sprout should be completely submerged in water.

Before planting the orchid in potting soil, check for signs of mold or rotting pieces of the plant.
