Succulent plants are very popular as relatively easy to raise plants. However, many friends encounter difficulties in breeding during the planting process. Today, let's introduce in detail David's succulent leaf-cutting breeding method.
I. Prepare the tools and materials to be used Before leaf insertion propagation, we need to prepare the tools and materials needed, including scissors, lime powder, clamps, sandy soil, etc.
2. Choose healthy leaves for leaf insertion When carrying out leaf insertion reproduction, we need to choose healthy leaves. It is best to choose leaves close to the stem, with plump mesophyll and no pests.
3. Dry the leaves. After selecting the leaves, we need to dry them for a period of time to let their surface completely dry.
4. Apply lime powder Before leaf transplanting, we need to apply a layer of lime powder to the dried leaves, which can prevent infection.
5. Insert the blade into the sandy soil Insert the blade into the sandy soil so that part of it can penetrate deep into the soil. Be careful not to insert the leaves too deep, otherwise they will easily rot.
6. Cover with plastic wrap. After inserting the leaves, you need to cover them with plastic wrap. This can moisturize.
7. Maintaining ventilation During leaf cutting and reproduction, we need to pay attention to maintaining ventilation to avoid infection of leaves with bacteria.
8. Avoid exposure to the sun During the process of leaf cutting reproduction, we need to avoid exposure to the sun. Otherwise, the leaves may easily be dried up.
9. Maintain appropriate humidity In the process of leaf cutting and breeding, we need to maintain appropriate humidity. You can spray water once a day to keep the soil moist.
10. Pay attention to observing During the process of leaf cutting reproduction, we need to observe the condition of the leaves frequently. If any abnormalities are found on the blades, deal with them in a timely manner.
11. Patiently waiting for the leaf cutting and breeding process requires a certain amount of patience. Normally, you need to wait about a month to see new growth.
12. Replacing new soil When new growth occurs, we need to transplant them into new soil. This can provide them with a better growth environment.
13. Gradually adjust the light and humidity When new growth begins to stabilize, we need to gradually adjust the light and humidity. This allows them to better adapt to the environment.
14. Pay attention to pest prevention In the process of reproduction and maintenance, we need to pay attention to pest prevention. Handle it in time to avoid impact on plants.
15. Through the above introduction, we can see that it is not difficult to breed David with fleshy leaves. As long as you master the method and wait patiently, you can make your fleshy family stronger!
