Last time I already posted 2 times regarding this title and the response so good from friend and visitors here. I hope it works good for you too. FYI, in orchid show generally, the Dendrobium will divided to 5 classes, i. Miniature, ii. Intermediate, iii. Round, iv. Horn and v. Nobile. So before you replant your dendrobium you should know which class are they. Based on my experience, class i - iv can easily grow and take care as well to replant them. But some how some of the plant in this class need special attention and modified on the way to replant them. It is depends on the inter-generic blood for that dendrobium, but here I don't want to touch this issue, I will mention it in other post.
Before we go further, know your dendrobium class. So it will give you the guide line in replanting your dendrobium. After this I will use this term in my post. How to re-plant them, I will discuss it in Part III - B.
