Bleach  prevents the formation of bacteria  and any other element harmful to the plant, which can become vulnerable. Next, cut off  three or four withered twigs . Once this is done, take the twigs and cut them in half again.

Next, in a container, prepare a base with sphagnum moss inside. Place the cut twigs horizontally without pushing or inserting them.  Cover everything with plastic wrap . From that moment on, be patient while you wait for the twigs to germinate, which will happen from the nodes. Let them air at least once a day and then cover them until the twigs germinate. You can then move the plants to a pot with dedicated orchid soil.

And there you have it, you have created orchid seedlings that will soon produce  a profusion of flowers . Now all he has to do is get to work trying to put  this simple breeding method  into practice for his orchids.
