Gardenia Propagation by High-pressure Method
Sharing content about flower propagation, specifically the high-pressure method for propagating gardenias. Let's learn about it together.
Propagation by the high-pressure method is not difficult. We just need to pay attention to a few key points, and then wait. These points include the timing of propagation and maintaining moisture. Let's see how to operate specifically.
1. Timing for High-pressure Propagation
The best time for high-pressure propagation is during the growing season when the plant's vitality is at its peak and it is most likely to root. If it's the dormant period or too cold, the plant's vitality is low, and it won't have the desire to root. Gardenias generally grow from the beginning of spring when the weather warms up until autumn when it gets cold.
2. Methods for Branch Treatment
This is the method of high-pressure propagation. Choose branches that are 1 to 3 years old, strip a 2 to 4 cm ring, scrape off the cambium layer or make a longitudinal cut to create a wound, fill with moss or fertile soil, and wrap with plastic, a split bamboo tube, a pot, etc., binding it tightly around the wounded area.
3. Daily Moisture Maintenance
Everyone knows that plants root when the soil moisture is ideal, so it's essential to regularly check if the wrapping medium is short of water. If it is, you should supplement water frequently, such as adjusting the method according to the specific situation.
