When orchids get childs
When orchids make offshoots, they are called childs. They form unexpectedly where one would have expected a new flower. This is relatively common with Dendrobium kingianum and Phalaenopsis.
Other kinds sometimes form a kindel when the mother plant is very weak or overfertilized to ensure the continuity of its species. The genotype of the offspring corresponds to that of the mother, it is a clone. In a new pot it can grow to a beautiful new plant, which has the same characteristics as the beloved mother plant.
Tips for raising the orchid seedlings
First, the child is supplied by the pedicel of the mother plant. Once it has at least two leaves and several roots of about three to five centimeters in length, it is ready to be separated from the mother plant and can provide for itself.
With a clean sharp knife you separate the child and plant it in a small pot of six to eight centimeters in diameter. It does not tolerate strong sunlight yet. The small orchid thrives best in fine-grained substrate in a warm, shady spot.
