Growth characteristics
Dendrobium nobile seed germination and seedling growth and growth under artificial conditions Dendrobium nobile seed is very small, powdery, length of 0.75 ~ 1.10 mm, width of 0.09 ~ 0.20 mm. Only under the light microscope can see its structure. Under wild conditions, only symbiotic germination with other bacteria, germination rate is very low. Artificial conditions to give rich nutrients and adapt to the light, temperature, water wet conditions, you can normal germination.
