How to reproduce soapwort

Selection of branches

Today I will mainly introduce the method of cuttings. Because this method is not only simple and convenient, but also relatively fast, it is the best choice for friends who have already cultivated soapwort. First, select the branches you want to use. There is no need to explain that they must be disease-free. In order to prevent the plants from being infected with bacteria from the beginning, you must check them carefully before using them. However, the temperature in summer is relatively high. If you choose too tender branches at this time, it will easily fail, so try to choose stronger ones.

Start time

After a long period of experience accumulation, the editor concluded that the best time for soapwort cuttings is early June. At this time, the temperature is not particularly high, but relatively stable and warm, which is suitable for the growth of branches. At this time, the plants have a strong differentiation ability and the probability of rooting is relatively high. The temperature at this time is suitable for wound healing, and they have not yet bloomed, so there are many branches to choose from. If it is done too early, the temperature will not be high enough to be suitable for the growth of branches. Similarly, if it is done too late, it will enter the rainy season, and not only will the temperature drop, it will also be prone to rot and may enter the flowering period.

Cutting method

It is best to plant the prepared cuttings in time. Be sure to water them sufficiently before planting. Avoid starting at noon because the temperature is relatively high at this time and the cuttings will definitely not be able to adapt. It would be not worth it if the plants are difficult to survive due to water loss due to high temperature.

In addition to this method. Sowing and division are also possible, I will not go into details here, because the method introduced above is the simplest and most efficient, go and give it a try!
