How to propagate fuchsia

1. Cutting propagation

Choose the top branches with full growth, cut them into 5 to 8 cm as cuttings, insert them into the sand bed, moisten it appropriately, and they will take root in about two weeks. After taking root, plant them in pots immediately, otherwise the roots will rot. Pay attention to ventilation and cooling in summer. This method can be used all year round, but it is best in spring and autumn to facilitate rooting.

2. Seed propagation

It can be propagated by sowing, but because the number of seeds is too small, it is rarely used. Choose spring and autumn as the time for sowing, plant in seedling trays in the greenhouse, adopt the broadcasting method, maintain the temperature between 15-20℃, water appropriately, and small buds will grow in about half a month, and then flowers will bloom in the spring of the following year.

3. Tissue culture

In addition to the above propagation methods, tissue culture can also be used. This method requires very professional equipment and technology. Just pick the stem tip and the tender leaves on it as the external implant.
