As a foliage plant, the lucky tree can purify the air indoors and decorate home life. Regarding the time for cuttings, March to May every spring is the best season for cuttings of the lucky tree. Because during this period of time, the cold is fading and the temperature is gradually rising. There is plenty of moisture in the air, and the sunshine is not too scorching, with mostly cloudy days. Therefore, the survival rate of the lucky tree cuttings during this period will be very high. However, when cutting the lucky tree, try to avoid cutting on days with continuous rainy weather to prevent long-term accumulation of water and cause wound rot. Regarding the steps and techniques of cuttings, the propagation of the lucky tree is actually very simple. It mainly relies on cuttings. With 5 steps of quick cutting propagation, dozens of pots can be grown in half a year. The first step is to prune the branchesChoose semi-woody branches that are more than one year old from the lucky tree. Make sure to choose branches that are strong and free from diseases and insect pests. Prune at a height of about 15 to 20 cm. Leave more than two nodes on the branches. After cutting them, cut off the leaves at the bottom to reduce water evaporation loss. Apply healing agent on the wounds of the branches to prevent infection. Step 2: Soak in rooting powder solutionSoak in the rooting powder solution for about 3 hours to increase the survival rate and make the roots grow faster. Dry it after soaking in the rooting powder, and then soak it in carbendazim solution for sterilization to prevent infection during cuttings and to improve the survival rate. Step 3: Prepare cutting mediumGenerally, sandy soil can be used, because sandy soil has good drainage and air permeability, and there is no fertilizer in it, which is good for plant rooting and will not rot. You can also use vermiculite, peat soil, coconut coir, etc., as long as it is loose, breathable and has good drainage. Step 4: CuttingsAfter completing the above preparations, you can start cuttings. Generally, you only need to cut to half of the culture soil. Generally, it is better to cut about 5 cm. Don't cut too deep or too shallow. Step 5: Cultivation and management after cuttingWater thoroughly and place it in a cool and ventilated place for maintenance. Keep the soil moist until it takes root and sprouts. Do not allow water to accumulate and do not require light. After the roots and buds have sprouted, water them about every 3 or 4 days. They can be exposed to scattered light, but not to direct sunlight. This is basically the way the cuttings have survived. |
