Laelia anceps subsp dawsonii f chilapensis Parte 3
Cultivo.
En mi experiencia, esta es la Laelia que más luz necesita para florecer. En nuestra área de cultivo, en el Estado mexicano de Morelos, toleran luz directa del sol, es más, me atrevería a aseverar que la necesitan para tener una floración adecuada.
Al igual que la laelia anceps subsp dawsonii f dawsonii, esta forma necesita de un clima templado, una temporada de lluvias muy intensa (Mayo-Octubre) y un final de otoño e invierno secos y fríos (Condiciones del Altiplano mexicano).
Culture
In my experience this is the Laelia that needs the most intense light to flower. In our growing area, in the state of Morelos, Mexico, it tolerates direct sunlight. I would actually dare to say that this is necessary to have an adequate flowering.
Just like the laelia anceps subsp dawsonii, this type needs a mild climate, a rainy season extremely intense(May-October) and at the end an autumn and winter dry and cold. (conditions of the
plateaus of central Mexico.)

Medio.
En el caso de la canasta de madera y la maceta, se tiene que usar un material muy poroso, como una mezcla de tepojal y corteza, los dos de tamaño mediano, que drene muy fácilmente, para que las raíces se sequen muy rápido. En todo caso este tipo de plantas debe tener una humedad relativa alta en su periodo de descanso, de 50 a 60% (meses de Noviembre a Marzo aprox.) y en el periodo de crecimiento del 70 al 80% (meses de Marzo a Septiembre).

Mixture for cultivation
For the wooden basket and the pot, one has to use a very porous material, for example a mixture of tepojal and bark, both of medium size, that drains very easily, so that the roots dry very quickly. Nevertheless, this type of plant should have a relatively high humidity in its rest perod, de 50% to 60% (November to March aprox.) and in its growing period 70% to 80% (March to September) Foto 12

Riego.
Estas son Laelias de alta montaña, provienen de lugares con 1500 metros de altura, con una temporada de lluvias muy marcada, de los meses de Mayo a Octubre, en donde les llueve a diario, en los meses de Noviembre a Abril estas regiones tienen una humedad relativa alta, debido al rocío nocturno.
Por lo que el riego debe ser muy intenso y frecuente, al menos tres veces por semana en los meses que corresponden a la temporada de lluvias, dicho sea de paso, es cuando las plantas están creciendo, y disminuirlo en los meses que corresponden al estiaje, sin dejar deshidratar los pseudobulbos más allá de su recuperación.
Cuando se riegue, se debe de simular una lluvia suave de por lo menos 10 segundos. Foto 13
Watering
These are Laelias of the high mountains, coming from altitudes of 1500 meters with a very defined rainy season, May to October, where they receive daily rain. From November to April these regions maintain a relatively high humidity, due to the nightly dew.
For this reason, they must be watered intensiley and frequently when they are growing, and less when they are dormant, without letting the pseudobulbs dry out too much.
When they are watered, one should simulate a soft rain for at least 10 seconds. Photo 13

Fertilización.
El fertilizante que se debe de usar es uno del tipo foliar, como el Peter’s, si se usa agua de lluvia se debe de usar el Cal-Mg 15-5-15 a razón de una cucharadita cafetera por cada 6 litros de agua y se aplica rociando la planta completamente, hojas, pseudobulbos y raíces. Tratando de recordar que algunas de nuestras plantas presentan metabolismo del tipo CAM* (Crassulacean Acid Metabolism) trataremos de aplicar la ‘comida’ una hora después de regar y de preferencia en la mañana.
El programa de fertilización debe de empezar, cuando la planta está en franco crecimiento y el desarrollo de nuevas raíces está comenzando, como lo muestra la Foto 14
Fertilization
The fertilizer one should use is foliar, like Peter's, if one uses rainwater one should add Cal-Mag 15-5-15 with the concentration of one teaspoon for 6 liters of water, spraying the whole plant, leaves, pseudobulbs, and roots. One must remember that some of our plants have the CAM (Crassulacean Acid Metabolism) and we should try to apply the 'food' an hour after watering and preferably in the morning. The program of fertilization should begin when the plant is really starting its growth period and the development of new roots is beginning, as shown in Photo 14.
