The reproduction method of Mongolian yew

sowing

Sowing time

Like most plants, they can be sown in the spring when the temperature is about to rise, which is around May. Choose seeds that have been stored in October of the previous year. If you are worried that they will germinate slowly before sowing, you can choose to spray them with warm water for a period of time to allow the seeds to fully expand, but not to make them sticky.

Steps of sowing

Before sowing, you need to water the soil once, then make a crack in the soil on the line where you want to sow, put the seeds in evenly, and then cover the soil back. Another way is to water the soil two days in advance, and then water it again after sowing, which can make them germinate faster.

Cuttings

Time for cuttings

This should be done earlier than sowing, and can be done in April. In mid-April, choose two one-year-old branches and cut them into 20 cm, because the length inserted into the soil needs to be 15 cm. If you collect cuttings while you are doing the cuttings, you can increase the chances of survival.

Steps of cutting

Cut the lower half of the prepared cuttings into an oblique end so that the cuttings can fully contact nutrients. If conditions permit, you can also disinfect them and then apply rooting reagents. After treatment, insert them into the soil. The survival rate of this operation can reach 70%. Water immediately after planting, so that the substrate and cuttings can combine better and take root faster. If possible, try to shade the newly planted parts to allow the new plants to better adapt to the surrounding environment. Observe them more often and deal with any problems in a timely manner.
