How long does it take for Kalanchoe cuttings to take root?

1. Water-inserted plants can grow roots in seven days

Different cutting methods actually have different root growth speeds. If it is a water-based cutting method, it can grow roots quickly. The advantage of this method is that the root growth speed is very fast, but the roots that grow will be relatively fragile and the recovery speed will be very slow. If its roots are damaged during the transplanting process, it will need a second rooting process. Water cutting means placing its leaves in a container of water, and after seven days, it will grow roots.

2. Sand planting can grow roots in half a month

1. This method grows roots very quickly and recovers quickly. Flowers grown with this method will basically not fall over. It has many advantages and is very easy to use. For sand, it is recommended to use fine river sand. Cut off 5 or 6 cm of its almost mature stems, then insert it into the sand, water it thoroughly, and then cover it with plastic film. Keep the temperature nearby at 15 to 20 degrees. After half a month, it will grow roots.

2. If the number of seedlings needed is not large, you can also use its leaves for sand planting. Cut off very healthy and strong leaves, and then put them in the sand after the wounds are dry. Keep it at a moderate humidity. After ten days or half a month, roots will grow at the bottom of the leaves, and then new plants will grow.
