Do you know this? Here are some small experiences in caring for Sedum propagation, let's learn about it together next.
How to propagate the succulent plant "Sedum"
Sedum is a common succulent plant in our lives. Do you know how to propagate Sedum? Let's find out below.
How to propagate Sedum: propagation time
When propagating Sedum, it is best to choose spring or autumn, as these two seasons are the growing periods of Sedum. After propagation, the roots of Sedum will grow faster.
Selecting cuttings
Sedum propagation can be done using stem cuttings or leaf cuttings. For stem cuttings, it is best to choose one-year-old branches, as these branches have stronger resistance and are easier to survive after propagation. For leaf cuttings, select healthy, vigorous leaves without any damage. After selecting the cuttings, cut them with a blade, disinfect them, and place them in a cool and well-ventilated area to dry.
Start propagating
After the Sedum cuttings are prepared, we can start propagating. Before propagation, make sure the soil is thoroughly watered. For stem cuttings, insert the branches into the soil, with a depth of one-third of the branch. For leaf cuttings, simply place the leaves flat on the soil.
After propagating Sedum, do not place it in direct sunlight. Instead, put it in an environment with scattered light, as too much sunlight can cause the moisture in Sedum to evaporate, leading to dehydration. Also, after propagation, do not water excessively, just keep the soil moist.
