The invention belongs to the field of
dendrobium cultivation, and provides a live tree epiphytic cultivation method of
dendrobium chrysotoxum. The method comprises the following steps: S1, constructing a symbiotic
system: binding
dendrobium chrysotoxum seedlings and pteridium
nursing plants on a selected living host tree from December every year to March next year; s2, fixing
dendrobium chrysotoxum seedlings: winding hemp ropes on branches of host trees to fix the
dendrobium chrysotoxum seedlings; s3, precise fertilization management: applying an improved
nutrient solution, and adjusting the fertilization frequency according to different growth stages of
Dendrobium chrysotoxum; s4, monitoring, regulating and controlling
polysaccharide accumulation: regularly sampling and determining the
polysaccharide content of
dendrobium chrysotoxum, and feeding back and adjusting a
management strategy according to a determination result. Compared with a traditional
living tree planting method, the
living tree epiphytic cultivation method of dendrobium chrysotoxum can remarkably improve the
survival rate and yield of dendrobium chrysotoxum and the content of
polysaccharide medicinal components, and the goal of high-quality and standardized production is achieved.
