How to propagate cinnabar root and precautions

Cinnabar root propagation method

There are two ways to propagate cinnabar root, one is cutting propagation and the other is sowing propagation. Compared with the two propagation methods, cutting propagation has a faster growth rate and is easier to plant. However, it requires sufficient water environment during maintenance.

Cinnabar root seed propagation

The seeds of cinnabar root can be propagated by sowing. Well-drained soil is required when sowing.

The natural way for cinnabar root to reproduce is through sowing. Be sure to use full seeds without diseases and insect pests, and germinate them before sowing.

Cinnabar root propagation time

Cinnabar root is generally chosen to reproduce in March-May, when the survival rate is the highest, because the planting environment at that time is more suitable for its growth and development, and cutting propagation can be adopted.

Cinnabar root cutting propagation

When propagating cinnabar root by cuttings, it is usually carried out in spring and autumn every year. It is necessary to use branches free of pests and diseases as cuttings, and use soil with good air permeability for planting.

Cinnabar root sowing propagation

When sowing and propagating cinnabar root, loose, breathable and well-drained soil is generally used for planting. In addition, relatively full seeds without diseases and pests should be used, and germination treatment is required before planting.

Precautions for propagation of cinnabar root

When propagating cinnabar root, you need to pay attention to watering it in time during maintenance. In spring and autumn, it needs to be watered every two days, in summer, it needs to be watered once a day, and in winter, it needs to be watered once every half a month. It needs to be done in an appropriate amount.
