This is he seed pot and inside it there is white stuff it’s the seed

What

Sympodial:  form a stem that is more or less horizontal (Eg. Lady of the night)

Sympodial plants are special.  They can still survival even if it is cut in to  half

Monopodial: for a stem that is vertically upwards

1st activity

Help a monopodial orchid  to stand up straight in the pot

Steps

-Get a horizontal hard stick to support maintain the balance of the orchid

-form a Cross (X) shape with the sticks

-place  the  plant in the pot

-put the cross in the middle of the plant

-add charcoal till the pot is fully fill

2nd activity

Uncle Tony gave us one plant of Lady Of The Night, we need to spilt it and put it into a small pot.  Add charcoal and water  and the plant is ours

3rd activity

We use a machine called laminar flow .It is machine that sterilisers the bacteria in  the seed pot . Our job is to sterilised the seed and put it in  a tight  air  container

Before doing  sterilising, we first have to clean the seed pot by using detergent, alcohol ,Clorox and deionised water.

So what

I know that plants can be cut and replant  without killing its original plant

Bacteria can be killed by this

Machine, after completing the steps of how to sterilise the seed pot.

Now what

-we learn how to help a plant maintain its

Vertically growth.

-we need to water  the orchid once  every 3 days

-spray 63 fertiliser  once every 2 week

-how to identify orchid if it is sympodial or monopodial

1) I was trying to pollinate the flower
2)first time I cannot get the pollen grains on the toothpick and I don’t know where to put the pollen grains
3) i managed to pollinate the flowers

# data[].attributes.body
1) I learnt that cross pollination of different forms of flower from the same species froms a hybrid flower.
I also learnt that during pollination the pollen grains must be place collectly at the right position

2) I know that the pollen grains can be found at the pollen cap.

# data[].attributes.body
1) I can confirm and tell people the correct way of pollination
2) I can do more practice to improve

# data[].attributes.body
This was the first activity that we did.

First, mdm Lim gave us two flowers to practice the steps on pollination.

The step was :
1) removing the lip from the plant
2) use a toothpick and take a bit of wax from the ovule
3) using the wax on the toothpick, it is easier to take the pollen grains from the pollen cap
4) then place the pollen grains in the hole of the ovule

Dear Gerald,
Please reflect deeper. Your reflection looks incomplete. I am sure you can reflect and write more under "what" and "so what". Kindly make the necessary changes. More pictures could be added in as well.
Regards,
Mdm Tang

This was the second activity that we did. I was instructed to remove the old charcoal in the pot and add in new charcoal for the plant.
