How to propagate these adorable succulents has become a problem for many新手 plant growers. This article will introduce you to the propagation methods of Josphine succulents in detail, helping you to easily propagate your succulent plant family.
Josphine succulent propagation overviewJosphine succulent propagation mainly consists of two methods: insertion and division. Both methods are based on asexual propagation of succulent plants and can preserve the excellent characteristics of the parent plant.
Insert propagation method1. Choose healthy and mature leaves: Insert propagation first requires selecting healthy, mature succulent leaves, which are usually located at the top or side branches of the plant.
2. Cut the leaves: Use a disinfected scissor or blade to cut the leaves from the plant, taking care not to damage the leaf base.
3. Dry the wound: Place the cut leaves in a well-ventilated, dry place to dry and wait for the wound to heal.
4. Insert: Insert the dried leaves into the soil, with about half the length of the leaf depth, keep the soil moist, and avoid waterlogging.
5. Wait for root formation: After about 2-3 weeks, the bottom of the leaves will begin to root, at which time the leaves can be separated from the soil to become independent small plants.
Division propagation method1. Choose a healthy parent plant: Division propagation requires selecting a strong-growing, disease and pest-free parent plant.
2. Separate the daughter plants: Use a disinfected tool to separate the daughter plants from the parent plant, taking care not to damage the roots.
3. Plant in soil: Plant the separated daughter plants in new soil and keep the soil moist.
4. Wait for survival: After about 1-2 months, the daughter plants will begin to grow, at which time they can be considered as independent small plants.
Precautions1. Ensure that the parent plant is healthy before propagation to avoid the spread of diseases and pests.
2. Disinfect the tools during insertion and division to avoid bacterial infection.
3. Keep the soil moist during propagation and avoid waterlogging.
4. After propagation, the succulent plants should be shaded appropriately to avoid direct sunlight.
5. After propagation, succulent plants should be fertilized regularly to ensure their healthy growth.
