How to propagate loquat

Seedling propagation of loquat

Loquat seeds are harvested in April and May after the fruits are ripe and can be sown immediately. Loquat seeds are sown according to actual needs. In the future, the seedlings can be grafted into trees on the spot, which is conducive to early flowering and fruiting. The seeds should be just buried in the soil, not too deep. Strengthen management after sowing, control the ambient temperature between 20-25℃, and keep the soil moist and breathable. At the same time, use straw and other covering materials for appropriate shading to reduce water evaporation and promote the germination of loquat seeds in the dark. After the loquat seeds sprout, remove the covering materials such as straw to allow the seedlings to carry out photosynthesis, while avoiding direct sunlight.

Grafting propagation of loquat

The best time for loquat grafting is mid-February, with cutting grafting being the main method. Seedlings are usually used as rootstocks for grafting. The rootstock should be slightly thicker than the scion and should be cut horizontally about 5-8 cm above the ground in preparation for grafting. Choose 1-2 year old strong loquat branches that have borne fruit as scion, retain the terminal bud and two side leaves, remove other leaves, and insert the scion into the rootstock and tie it with plastic strips for protection. This propagation method has the advantages of high survival rate, good growth and fast fruiting speed.
