Rooting time of ivy cuttingsIvy is generally propagated by cuttings between June and October each summer because the climate at that time is more suitable for growth and the survival rate of cuttings during this period is relatively high. After cuttings, we need to place it in a relatively cool place for maintenance. It takes about 25 to 30 days to take root . Ivy cutting rooting method1. When taking ivy cuttings, it is best to choose healthy cuttings that are free of diseases and insect pests. Also, remove the leaves on the branches to reduce water loss. After processing, soak the bottom of the cuttings in a rooting solution to promote faster rooting. 2. The substrate for ivy cuttings must be loose and well-drained. It can be mixed with leaf mold, garden soil and sand. Leaf mold contains humus, and sand can improve drainage, which will also increase the survival rate. 3. When taking ivy cuttings, you can prepare a chopstick or a wooden stick of appropriate thickness. First, use it to poke a small hole on the surface of the soil in the pot, and then insert the cuttings into the soil. Be careful not to insert the cuttings too densely or too deep. About one-third of the cuttings should be inserted into the soil. Ivy cutting managementIvy cuttings can be exposed to the sun after they have taken root, but newly cut ivy cuttings cannot be exposed to the sun because they have not yet taken root and the growth of the plant is relatively weak. If it is exposed to direct sunlight, the upper leaves will easily be sunburned and dehydrated, which will lead to failure of cuttings. Note that not only can it not be exposed to the sun, but it must also be shaded. |
