At present, there are many techniques for cultivating orchids in China, so many new and unique varieties have been cultivated, making Taiwan the whole The world's largest exporter of orchid plants, Taiwan has a reputation as an orchid kingdom.

The cultivation process of orchids is to first plant the young plants in the culture pots, and then grow them to a certain extent, and then through the flowering process, the cultivation medium currently used in orchids is many, and can be used alone or in combination, such as sphagnum moss. Snake wood, charcoal, peat soil, pearl stone, pumice stone, pearl stone, vermiculite, bark, peat, coconut shell, foaming, etc. are all used as a medium for cultivating orchids.

Because moss has good water retention, it is the most commonly used medium, but the moss must maintain a certain humidity. Once the moss is dry, it is difficult to absorb water. Moreover, the humidity during planting needs to be Properly controlled, adding too much water is easy to cause orchid roots, adding too little water, the moss is dry and unable to absorb water, and the moss will turn green after a period of use. If the moss grows green algae, the moss begins to acidify and corrupt, and needs to be replaced immediately. Otherwise, the roots of the orchids will be corrupted. In addition, in recent years, over-exploitation has led to a decrease in the production of sphagnum moss and the quality is not stable. Various factors will directly affect the quality of orchid cultivation, and the orchid planters will increase the cost and stability of planting. Not good.

The textile 12 of the conventional orchid cultivation medium is made of non-woven fabric, cotton, silk, cloth, gauze, nylon, etc., and the textile 12 is subjected to fluffy processing so that the surface fiber can adsorb more water. Molecule, however, the textile 12 made of the whole cloth material is made of artificially processed and non-natural material, and its gas property cannot of course be compared with the natural material, so the control of humidity is manipulated in the experience of the grower.

Moreover, although the textile 12 can quickly absorb moisture and then wrap the outside of the orchid plant 13, the moisture of the textile 12 is released slowly, which not only interferes with the evaporation rate of the water, but also blocks the collection area 11 The drainage speed of the 13 roots of the orchid plant in the interior causes a problem of poor ventilation. After a long time, the orchid plant 13 will cause the root of the orchid plant 13 to fester due to the high water content, thereby knowing that the textile 12 is used as the The cultivation medium of orchids does not provide an excellent growth environment for plants, but rather increases the growth burden of plants.

In view of this, if a solution that can overcome the problems of poor water retention and low planting stability of the existing medium, the planting cost and the inconvenience of the orchid planter can be reduced, and the Taiwan orchid can be improved.
