The present disclosure relates to the technical field of Gastrodia elata planting, in particular to an organic planting method of G. elata, including the process of mycelia colonized material preparation: cutting a branch of Quercus acutissima into bars; cutting out fish scale openings on the bars to obtain bars with the fish scale openings; successively soaking the bars with the fish scale openings in boiling water and a growth-promoting solution to obtain bars after growth promotion treatment; and putting Amillariella mellea spawns and an inoculation substrate into each fish scale opening of the bars after the growth promotion treatment to obtain a mycelia colonized material. The growth-promoting solution and the inoculation substrate are prepared by treatment of fresh G. elata stalks with Bacillus pumilus and hot-dip extraction treatment in ethanol.

Divided jardiniére suspension and/or watering systems for vandaceous orchids. In some embodiments, the system may comprise two receptacle pieces that may be coupled together to define a complete receptacle for a vandaceous orchid. Some embodiments may further comprise one or more watering elements, such as a watering manifold that may deliver water through one or more outtake ports through water delivery members that may extend from the watering manifold and be wrapped around the roots of the vandaceous orchid to deliver water and/or nutrients continuously via capillary action.

The pot for culturing an epiphyte is integrally injection molded from a transparent plastic. The pot has a bottom, a lower edge, an upper edge and a sidewall extending between the lower edge and the upper edge. The sidewall of the pot is provided with an outwardly protruding lip at the level of the upper edge. A cross section through the sidewall of the pot, tangent to the lower face of the lip, has a substantially hexagonal or octagonal shape. Consequently, the pot, at least at the top, is hexagonal or octagonal, thus allowing more pots to be positioned per unit area compared to a round shape having the same diameter as the diameter of the circumscribed circle of the hexagonal or octagonal shape.

A method for cultivating a plant, especially an orchid, is provided. The method involves a seedling at least partly surrounded by a substrate being introduced into a plant pot, the plant pot being introduced into one of multiple cells of a tray and the plant pot being immobilized in the cell, wherein the plant pot is introduced into the cell of the tray until a cell wall which is impenetrable for roots and especially unbreached towers above the plant pot.

The disclosure provides an aseptic sowing and raising seedling method for distant hybridization seeds of Phalaenopsis and Rhynchostylis retusa, which takes Phalaenopsis as female parent and Rhynchostylis retusa as male parent to obtain hybridization fruit pods by artificial pollination, the fruit pods are pretreated, and the seeds are aseptically sowed, germinated, protocorm proliferated and differentiated, strong seedlings rooted, acclimatized and transplanted to obtain distant hybridization offspring groups. The disclosure has the advantages of high seed germination rate, large seedling number, short seedling time and good seedling quality, which solves the problems that the seeds of Phalaenopsis distant hybridization process are difficult to succeed due to affinity, and are extremely difficult to germinate and raise seedlings under natural conditions. Therefore, a large number of seedlings can be obtained in a short period by aseptic sowing and artificial propagation, which lays a foundation for breeding excellent varieties of Phalaenopsis distant hybridization.

A tray for growing a plant, especially an orchid, with multiple compartments for holding a respective planting pot is provided. The tray comprises at least one fastening means for securing the planting pot. The compartments each have a lower compartment portion designed to receive entirely the planting pot to be inserted, and a respective upper compartment portion comprising the fastening means is formed at least by a compartment wall which is impenetrable to the root system, in particular non-perforated, as well as a system for growing a plant.
