Bear's Child Leaf Cutting Experiment
A comprehensive explanation of the related content of the succulent plant Bear's Child, the experiment of Bear's Child leaf cutting. The site editor will introduce to netizens next.
Many people say that Bear's Child leaves cannot be cut for propagation, and even if they do, the survival rate is very low. I used to believe that, but I recently had some free time and experimented with it. Now I will present the results of the experiment to everyone, here are the data:
Address: Chengdu
Time: April 1 - April 19
Leaf Material: Leaves that fell automatically during express delivery
Environment: Greenhouse environment (it's not exactly a greenhouse, just a plastic shed I built in my courtyard)
Soil: 4:4:2 Peat Soil: Coal Ash: River Sand
Soil Environment: Moist
Shed Environment: stuffy and humid
Shed Temperature: Daytime 25-37°C, Nighttime 15-20°C
Watering: Once every 3 days, regardless of whether the soil is dry or moist, water every 3 days
Leaf Placement: Placed directly in the pot, together with the planted Bear's Child
Light: Full sunlight from 9:00 to 14:00, blocked by the wall after 2 pm
Shed Conditions: Open on all sides in the morning, fully closed at night
Here are the pictures:
From the pictures, it can be seen that several leaves have successfully rooted through leaf cutting. The largest leaf has produced tillers, not just one head, preliminarily estimated at 3-5 heads. The leaves behind have already successfully tillered, but have not yet grown into small plants. However, it can be judged that the leaf cutting has been successful. Based on my current data, it is still easy to propagate Bear's Child through leaf cutting.
The above is a detailed explanation of the Bear's Child leaf cutting experiment. I hope this article can bring you some help in green plant management!
