When cutting Schefflera, first choose lignified branches, which must be strong. It is better to leave a pruning length of about 20 cm, with two leaves at the top. Leave a distance of about 2 cm between the top of the branch and the leaves, and cut a 45-degree incision at the bottom. The main purpose of the oblique cutting method is to increase the branch wound surface, which is easy to absorb water and root. Schefflera cutting timeCuttings of Schefflera should be carried out in spring and autumn , when the weather temperature is relatively high, which can easily accelerate the growth of Schefflera's roots after cuttings. During this period, high temperatures in summer should be avoided as much as possible, and it is more appropriate to keep it in a ventilated and cool place. Schefflera cutting method1. Branches The correct method should be used for cuttings of Schefflera chinensis. Choose branches with good growth and more than two years of growth for cuttings. Take out healthy branches about 12 cm long with 3-4 leaves, and then insert them into the soil, and fix the roots with both hands. 2. Soil When planting Schefflera, you need to use loose, fertile soil with good air permeability and drainage. If conditions permit, you can also add an appropriate amount of farmyard manure, which is more conducive to the development of the root system. Generally, sand is used, but garden soil is also fine. Precautions for cuttings of Schefflera1. Sufficient water After the Schefflera is planted, make sure there is enough water. Since the root system needs a lot of water to develop, water it once a day after cutting to ensure it is thoroughly watered. 2. Fertilization It is necessary to fertilize the Schefflera after cuttings. Applying farmyard manure is the most effective and can be used after dilution. 3. Adequate lighting Schefflera has high requirements for light after cuttings, and sufficient light should be ensured. It is more suitable to place it outdoors in a place with scattered sunlight. |
