The most commonly used methods for rose propagation are cuttings and grafting. Many friends want to try cuttings, but they often end in failure. In fact, rose cuttings are not difficult. If you choose the right time for cuttings, there will be too many seedlings to put down. When is it easier for rose cuttings to surviveThe best time for rose cuttings is when the temperature is 5-10 degrees, and the cuttings are most likely to survive . From the perspective of season, it is winter and early spring, and in the north it is around March. In winter and early spring, because of the low temperature and fewer diseases, rose cuttings are less likely to suffer from black rot. In winter, most roses will enter a dormant period. The branches store more nutrients, and more branches can be obtained if they are pruned in winter, making them most suitable for cuttings. When rose cuttings are taken, there are two situations: one is with branches, and the other is straight branches without branches . Because winter pruning often prunes off a lot of branches , and you will often encounter rose branches with branches. For branches with branches, it is recommended to use heel cuttings, which will be more beneficial for growth after survival. How to keep rose cuttings alive easily①Select rose branches Heel cuttings are for branched rose branches . When pruning the cuttings, you can pinch the forked part and forcefully break the fork apart or cut the fork apart with a knife. The cuttings need to have the heel. ② Pruning cuttings Then we cut the upper part of the branches short, cut them into 6-8cm long cuttings , insert them into the planting soil, and water them thoroughly. ③Heel cuttings In winter and early spring, you don't need to use pure vermiculite or pure Zhenzhen rock for rose cuttings. You can directly use planting soil for cuttings . Because the temperature is low, black stems rarely appear, and after rooting, you can directly transplant and plant with soil. However, due to the low temperature in winter and early spring, the rooting of rose cuttings will be slow. It is recommended to dip the bottom of the cuttings in rooting powder or rooting agent solution to speed up the rooting of the cuttings . Cuttings with heels are easier to survive and grow better after rooting because the heels store more nutrients. In addition, there are many invisible buds in the heels, so it is easier for new seedlings to grow strong shoots during maintenance. |
