If rose cuttings don't take root, it's because the wrong branches were chosen! Slightly process the branches, and they will root in a week.
Roses are one of the most common flowers in households, and many flower enthusiasts grow a pot. We all know that roses are propagated through cuttings, which have a high survival rate. However, many enthusiasts often do not handle it properly, resulting in failed cuttings, blackened stems, and rot. In fact, propagating roses through cuttings is very simple; it's mainly because we haven't done one point well, which is choosing the right branches. Using嫩 (young) branches without bud points makes it difficult for cuttings to survive. How should we choose rose branches now?
First, let's say that the survival rate of rose cuttings is highest in spring and autumn. Summer is also suitable for cutting, but it's prone to black rot due to high temperatures, stuffiness, and poor ventilation. When cutting, it's essential to choose the right branches. What kind of branches are most suitable for cutting? We know that after roses bloom, their branches are very old and hard. These post-bloom branches, when pruned, are most suitable for cutting. The branches below the flowers have full buds between the leaves and stems, and the branches are hard. Using these branches for cutting can achieve a 100% survival rate, making it rare for them to fail to root, blacken, or rot.
Let's also discuss how to cut. The branches should be pruned to retain 1-2 leaves, and the bottom of the branches should be trimmed at an angle. Leave only two small leaves, then soak the trimmed branches in rooting hormone solution for 1-2 hours. Prepare a loose and breathable soil, which can be river sand, vermiculite, or perlite, but it's best to use nutrient-rich soil to speed up root growth. I usually use nutrient-rich soil for cutting, with a 1:1 ratio of perlite, vermiculite, and peat soil. The mixed nutrient-rich soil is excellent. Insert the soaked branches into the loose and breathable nutrient-rich soil, then water thoroughly, adding some rooting hormone and mycostatin to prevent decay and blackening. This will promote rapid root growth.
After cutting, place it in a well-ventilated area with scattered light. Spray the leaves with water three times a day—morning, noon, and evening—to let them absorb moisture and increase humidity, preventing the stems from drying out and leaves from wilting, yellowing, and falling off. During this period, if the surface of the potting soil dries out, water it thoroughly. If all goes well, within a week, its roots will start to grow slowly, and by two weeks, the roots will be very good, with new buds growing rapidly. When the new buds grow to 10-20 centimeters, you can transplant them into new potting soil. You can pinch the top, gradually increase sunlight, and apply some fertilizer to help it grow quickly and bloom.
Rose cutting propagation is very simple, with the key point being to choose the right branches. The branches should have some firmness, with full buds between the leaves and stems. This way, after cutting, they can quickly grow the buds outward. Without full buds, they will take longer to grow new buds, which can easily lead to blackening and rot. Also, if the branches are too soft and planted in the soil, they will consume too much water, resulting in insufficient stem firmness and only wilting and rotting. It's crucial to spray water daily to increase humidity and ensure the leaves absorb moisture to maintain a certain level of humidity. This will help it grow roots within a week and be ready for transplanting into new potting soil in two weeks. During the growing seasons of autumn and spring, propagate promptly after flowering to ensure fast survival and root growth. This way, the survival rate of rose cuttings can reach 100%, even for beginners.
