How long does it take for rose cuttings to take root? How to make the cuttings survive?

Rose hydroponic cutting rooting time

The time for rose hydroponic cuttings is generally in late spring, when the temperature is relatively high, which is conducive to the growth of roses. If the hydroponic time is too early or too late, it will affect the growth of seedlings. Under normal circumstances, new roots will grow in about a month after cuttings, but you must master the maintenance methods so that rooting will be faster.

Rose hydroponic cutting rooting method

When hydroponically propagating rose cuttings, place the processed rose branches directly into the bottle filled with water. The amount of water needs to be controlled so that the branches are not completely submerged and the water needs to be changed frequently.

Generally, the water needs to be changed every 2-3 days in the early stage. After rooting, the water only needs to be changed once a week. It is recommended to place it in a place with diffuse light and good ventilation.

Rose hydroponic cutting method

1. Pruning branches

Before hydroponic cuttings, the rose branches must be properly pruned. The bottom of the branches must be trimmed into a slope, and most of the leaves on the branches must be cut off. This will reduce water consumption and prevent the leaves from rotting after being exposed to water.

2. Choose a container

    For containers for hydroponic cuttings, it is recommended to choose transparent plastic bottles or glass bottles, which makes it easier to observe whether it needs water changes and whether it has taken root.
