Honeysuckle cutting technique
Sharing the knowledge topic of Honeysuckle propagation with everyone, the technique of Honeysuckle cutting. Next, the editor will introduce it to everyone.
Honeysuckle cutting is the most common and simple method of propagation. Many flower enthusiasts practice Honeysuckle cutting all year round. Generally speaking, the survival rate of cuttings in spring and autumn is relatively higher. Let's take a look at the key points of Honeysuckle cutting techniques:
1. Choose healthy, straight annual branches (easier to survive), with slightly sparse leaf spacing (personal preference, liking tall and upright, not short and shriveled);
2. Leave two to three nodes on each cutting branch, keeping only two leaves on the upper node, and cut off the rest of the leaves;
3. Insert the cut branches diagonally into the soil, with a depth of 1/2 of the branch, and slightly press them down to make them firm;
4. Water thoroughly after planting, then keep the soil moist, and place it in a ventilated area without direct sunlight. It can take root in about half a month. After taking root, manage it normally outside and transplant as needed;
5. If cuttings are done in spring, new buds will soon appear between the leaves, but they have not yet taken root, so management should not be relaxed at this time.
6. Some friends like to pull out the cut branches often to check. If a lump is found at the bottom of the cutting branch (similar to a root nodule, although it has not rooted, such a branch has already survived).
7. The soil for Honeysuckle cutting should be loose, breathable, well-drained, and fertile sandy loam is suitable. Ordinary garden soil has a lower survival rate.
