Best time for cutting chrysanthemums

Chrysanthemum is usually propagated by cuttings from March to June, when the climate is most suitable. Propagation at this time can increase the survival rate of the seedlings. If properly maintained in the later stage, new roots will grow in about 7 days, and normal maintenance can be carried out in about a month.

Chrysanthemum cutting method and steps

1. Select branches

You can cut cuttings of about 20 cm from a well-growing chrysanthemum mother plant. Note that the cuttings must have terminal buds and leaf buds so that they can germinate normally. Then soak them in rooting water for about two hours before grafting.

2. Insert into the soil

After the soil is prepared, you can start cuttings. Poke a small hole on the surface of the soil, put the chrysanthemum cuttings in, gently compact the surrounding soil, and then spray water appropriately. They will sprout soon.

Maintenance matters after chrysanthemum cuttings

1. After the chrysanthemum cuttings are successfully planted, you need to continue watering the soil. Be careful not to flood it with water. You can use a spray to wet the soil thoroughly, and then place it in a cool place for maintenance.

2. After the chrysanthemum is cut, place it in a semi-shaded, ventilated environment for maintenance. Avoid direct sunlight, otherwise the plant will easily be sunburned, resulting in the failure of the cuttings to survive.
