Model 1: Facility cultivation model

Demonstration base of the Dendrobium officinale Engineering Technology Research Center of the State Forestry Administration

Key techniques: 70% shading rate; pine bark as substrate; best planting time March-May, September-October; 3-5 plants per clump, 25,000 clumps/mu; requires good fertilizer and water management, high temperature and freezing damage prevention and control, pest and disease prevention and control, precise harvesting

Model 2: Living tree epiphytic model

Dendrobium officinale Jingpin No. 1 living tree epiphytic cultivation

Key techniques: about 50% canopy density, cultivation in March-May, bare-root binding of 1-1.5 year old seedlings, spraying water for 1 hour daily, mollusk prevention and control, no fertilizer or pesticide applied during cultivation.

Model 3: Three-dimensional cultivation model

Three-dimensional cultivation, making full use of space

Key techniques: using artificial columns or standing wood, binding and management methods same as living tree epiphytic cultivation; this model combines the advantages of facility cultivation and living tree epiphytic cultivation; land utilization rate increased by 2.7 times; yield significantly higher than ground cultivation; no fertilizer or pesticide applied to the product.

Model 4: Cliff epiphytic model

Tianmu Mountain wild germplasm cliff epiphytic cultivation

Key techniques: integrating key techniques such as environmental selection, water regulation to improve environmental humidity and temperature, bare-root planting in March-May, selection of stress-resistant varieties.

Model 5: Potted model

Dendrobium officinale potted model

Key techniques: a planting method using flower pots and other containers as carriers, cultivated in natural forest environments, artificial facility environments, or indoors, which can both produce medicinal materials and serve as ornamental plants.
