Choose suitable cutting materials, prepare cutting substrate, treat cutting materials, maintain and manage the selection of rooting hormones, and precautions for cutting is a common method of plant reproduction. It not only can quickly increase the number of plants, but also retains the excellent characteristics of the female parent. Many flower friends will encounter difficulties in rooting during the cuttage process. Let's reveal the fastest method to take root in the cuttage soil so that your plants can survive easily! Choose suitable cutting materials 1. Choose healthy, disease-free female parent plants.
2. Select branches with strong growth, short internodes and thick leaves as cuttage materials. Preparing cuttage substrates 1. Cutting substrates should have good breathability and drainage. Commonly used ones include river sand, perlite, vermiculite, etc.
2. Sieve the cutting substrate to remove impurities and ensure the purity of the cutting material. Handling cuttage materials 1. When cutting cuttage materials, try to minimize wounds to reduce the invasion of bacteria.
2. Soak the cutting material in 500-1000mg/L rooting hormone solution for 30 minutes. Cuttage operation 1. Insert the processed cuttage material into the prepared cuttage substrate to a depth of about 1/3 of the length of the branch.
2. Ensure that the distance between cutting materials is moderate and avoid blocking each other. Maintenance and management 1. Keep the cutting substrate moist, but avoid stagnant water.
2. Give appropriate amount of scattered light every day to avoid direct sunlight.
3. Spray 0.1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution every 10 days to promote rooting. Choice of rooting hormones 1. Common rooting hormones on the market include naphthylacetic acid, indole butyric acid, methyl indole butyrate, etc.
2. Select the appropriate rooting hormone according to the plant type and growth habits. Notes 1. During the cuttage process, pay attention to avoid cross-infection and keep the operating environment clean.
2. During the processing of cuttage materials, try to avoid touching the wound to avoid infection.
3. Observe the changes in cuttage materials and adjust maintenance measures in a timely manner.
It is the fastest method to take root in cuttage soil that we have revealed for everyone. Through careful operation in selecting suitable cuttage materials, processing cuttage materials, preparing cuttage substrates, cuttage operations, maintenance management, etc., I believe that your plants will be able to take root quickly. Survive, I wish you success in the plant cuttage process!
