How to propagate the peace lily

one. sowing:

1. The propagation of this plant is generally done by sowing. In the south, the ripe purple-black fruits can be used for sowing around September or October.

2. Wash off the peel on the outside of the fruit and then rinse it in water. Remove the dried and floating seeds, and then place the remaining seeds in a cool place to dry naturally.

3. Generally, this kind of seeds can be sown after being collected, but if the weather is bad or the seedbed is not ready, they cannot be sown immediately. At this time, you can store the seeds in moist sand, and then put them in a dark place. Wait until the seeds crack and reveal a little white before sowing.

4. If the seedlings have not been stored in sand to stimulate germination, you can soak them in medicine for 30 minutes before sowing, then pour out the solution, seal the seeds for two hours, then wash off the medicine attached to the outside of the seeds with water, and soak the seeds in water for 24 hours.

5. Sowing is generally done by spot sowing in the furrows. First, dig furrows with a row spacing of 20 cm to 25 cm, and then the spacing between seeds should be 5 to 7 cm. After planting, cover them with a 1.5 cm thick layer of mud and then cover them with straw to keep them moist.

6. Buds will appear after 20 to 30 days.

two. Cuttings:

1. This method is usually chosen from April to May or September to October, because it is best when the temperature is 22 to 28 degrees.

2. Prepare nutrient pots or flower pots, and use sterilized vermiculite and an equal amount of peat as the culture medium.

3. Select branches that are semi-lignified, relatively strong and not diseased, and cut them in the dewy morning or on a cloudy day.

4. Cut the branches into 10 to 15 cm, leaving 2 to 3 leaves on each section.

5. Insert the base of the cut branches into the strong rooting agent, leaving 3 to 5 cm inside.

6. Then plant a seedling in each flowerpot, water it thoroughly, cover it with plastic film, and place it in a shady place.
