The breeding method of soft-branch yellow cicada

The breeding method of soft-branch yellow cicada

1. Treatment of plant cuttings

Because this plant is usually propagated by cuttings, generally in spring and autumn, cut relatively mature branches, about 12 cm to 18 cm long. The cuttings are required to have 2 to 4 stem nodes. After cutting, they should be promptly inserted obliquely into a relatively loose seedbed.

2. Preparation of seedbed for plant cuttings

The soil for the seedbed is best prepared by mixing leaf mold, clay loam, and sandy soil in a ratio of 5:3:2. After preparing the soil, you need to loosen it with a rake, then water the seedbed, and water it evenly. Then you can apply base fertilizer, because this plant has a very large demand for water and fertilizer, so the amount must be sufficient.

3. Temperature requirements for plant cuttings

Its favorite growth temperature is 20 to 30 degrees. If the temperature is lower than 20 degrees, it will be more difficult for the cuttings to take root and it will be much slower. Conversely, if the temperature is higher than 30 degrees, the upper and lower wounds will be easily infected by bacteria and then rot, and as the temperature rises, the degree of rot will deepen. Moreover, if the temperature drops after cuttings, we must take appropriate insulation measures and prepare a film to hold the flower pots after cuttings; if the temperature is too high, we must pay attention to shading and cooling, blocking more than 50% and less than 80% of the sunlight, and also pay attention to spraying to replenish water, about 3 to 5 times a day.

4. Humidity requirements for plant cuttings

This plant has a very high demand for water, so the humidity of its growing environment should be above 75%. In addition, in order for the branches to take root, it is necessary to ensure that the branches are fresh and tender enough to photosynthesize and emit substances that can grow roots before they grow roots. Branches without roots cannot absorb water to ensure the water balance in the body, so we have to spray artificially to reduce water evaporation.
