1、 Breeding environment

1. Soil: spot leaf orchid is a fleshy root. Therefore, sandy soil with good drainage and rich humus should be used. It is best to use slightly acidic soil, which is conducive to its growth

2. Light: it likes shade and doesn't let the sun shine directly. It can accept scattered light or receive light for a short time. It should be properly ventilated to ensure air circulation

3. Temperature: it is necessary to provide the growth environment of spot leaf orchid at 15-30 ℃. If the temperature is lower than 5 ℃ or higher than 35 ℃, it will affect its normal growth. If the temperature is lower, it should be placed indoors for maintenance

2、 Breeding method

Ramet propagation: variegated orchid usually ramets in spring and autumn. Each clump should ensure that there are 5 connected pseudobulbs, and then insert it into the prepared soil and water it to ensure that the soil is wet. Reduce watering during the period, and put it in the shade for about 10-15 days to take root

3、 Common diseases and insect pests

White silk disease: the disease will lead to rotten roots. At this time, clean soil should be replaced and properly ventilated. The plants receiving the disease should be burned to avoid infecting other plants

Scale insects: most of them breed in high temperature and high humidity environment. After discovery, they should be sprayed with Omethoate or Mala sulfur for control. If the situation is not serious, they can be caught manually
