How to propagate moonflower

Moonflower breeding requirements

Since we are talking about the reproduction method of moonflower, let’s first talk about the reproduction requirements of moonflower. After all, only by accurately grasping the characteristics of moonflower and understanding the optimal growth state of moonflower can we greatly improve the survival rate of moonflower.

The soil requirements for the reproduction of moonflowers are not too high. As long as the soil is not very poor, it can basically survive. However, the requirements for temperature, sunlight and humidity when propagating moonflowers are still relatively high. The temperature should be kept above 15 degrees and below 30 degrees as much as possible, and the air humidity should be kept between 50% and 65%.

Sowing and propagation of moonflower

Seeding Overview

The main method of propagation of moonflower is seed propagation, which has a high survival rate and high feasibility. Therefore, people have always chosen the seed sowing method for reproduction. Now, let’s introduce the specific steps of sowing.

Preparation before sowing

Before sowing, you need to prepare the soil and seeds. Although the sowing and reproduction of moonflowers do not require high soil requirements, it is better to use more fertile soil. In addition, the soil can contain some humus and the soil has good drainage and air permeability. It is best to sterilize the soil before sowing the seeds. In addition to removing weed seeds in the soil, you can also remove hidden insect eggs. The seeds selected should be crack-free, plump and mature seeds.

Seeding process

Evenly spread the seeds you have selected on the prepared loose and breathable soil, and then lightly cover them with a thin layer of soil to protect the seeds. Gently press the soil in the pot with your hands or shake the flower pot on the ground, then water the seeds sufficiently and place them in a sunny place for cultivation. Generally speaking, you need to water it every one to two days, and it will germinate after one to three weeks.
