-
Orchid seeds require sterile flask germination; scatter seeds on a sterile agar medium (MS, KNUDSON C, or Vacin & Went).
-
Keep flask at 24–26°C, bright indirect light, and high humidity inside the flask.
-
After 4–6 months, seedlings (protocorms) grow roots and leaves.
-
Begin deflasking by moving plantlets into a shaded, humid space (50–60% shade).
-
Pot in a fine orchid mix: sphagnum moss + fine bark.
-
Gulf care: Protect from heat >35°C, place in airy shade, and mist lightly to avoid dryness.
