Hello all,
I was wondering... There is a plant that has rotten pseudobulb/s or leaf/ves! After cutting the damaged part off the rest of the plant... is burning the cut (the healthy part that has remained) with a lighter (or something), suitable and effective so that it is secured and shieled? Or does this stress the plant even more??? Many of the wounds that I have treated with cinnamon or H2O2 have been reinfected and eventually killed the plant! Of course there is something that I am not doing correctly, but I was wondering if the above method is ok...!!! Well I have tried it with a psb of a Calanthe rubens that I have. I will wait and see what happens...
Thinking over it again, I guess that if a plant is rotten in vital spots, e.g. crown rot or base of growth etc, this practice can't be applied...!
