How to breed spring feathers and what to pay attention to

Spring feather reproduction method

There are four ways of propagation for spring fern: cutting propagation, sowing propagation, division propagation and leaf cutting propagation. Except for leaf cutting propagation, the survival rate of the other three propagation methods is very high, and the growth rate is also relatively fast.

Spring fern seed propagation

Spring fern seeds can be propagated, but you need to collect seeds before planting, and then plant them in the next year. Spring fern naturally reproduces by sowing, and when planting, the temperature needs to be kept between 25-30 degrees.

Spring feather breeding time

The survival rate of spring fern is high in spring and autumn. At this time, it can be planted by cutting propagation. The growth rate will be faster and its survival rate will be higher.

Spring fern division propagation

When propagating spring fern by division, you need to wait until the sucker buds grow to 4-5 leaves and produce adventitious roots, which can be separated from the mother root. At this time, reproduction can be carried out.

Spring Feather Cutting Propagation

When propagating spring fern by cuttings, sandy soil is generally used, which will ensure better growth. It is recommended to start planting in May-September each year, and it will generally take root in 20 days.

Spring fern seed propagation

When sowing and propagating spring fern, you need to use relatively sturdy plant seeds, and when planting, you need to use sandy humus soil, and the temperature should be kept between 25-30 degrees.

Spring feather leaf cuttings

When propagating spring feather plant by leaf cuttings, its stems are generally used. Since its leaves cannot be propagated by cuttings, this method is not recommended.

Hydroponic Spring Feather Propagation

When hydroponically growing spring fern, you need to use a transparent hydroponic container and keep it clean. When hydroponically growing, you need to use relatively clean water and change the water regularly.

Precautions for spring feather breeding

When breeding spring fern, you need to pay attention to using loose, fertile, and well-drained slightly acidic soil. At normal times, you also need to keep the temperature between 18-25 degrees and have sufficient sunlight.
