Dendrobium Kieki's
 

I have 3 Dens that have large Kieki's with roots and I am wondering how to cut them off the main cane. These are the Dens that I promised to Amandalee as they were so big and I am so limited in space. Can I cut these babies off the main cane if so how should I ship them? Ship them bare root dry or wrap them in moist spagum or what????
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Sheridan

i just break em off gently, to ship em, wrap em in newspaper and package in a box....they will be fine...

Dounoharm should I put anything on the portion from the main cane like cinnamon? I not to sure about just breaking them off :yikes: I hope I don't mess this up.... ;)

OK I am going for it...

Sheridan -- the few den keikis I have had twisted off easily.

if you wanted to, spray em with physan and let them dry before shipping, never ship a wet plant....but the 'cut' from breaking off the main stem never gave me any problems.....
