Complete guide to propagating Malus truncatum

Seed propagation of Malus truncatum

Seed propagation usually begins in late October. After collecting seeds, make sure to store them in wet sand for two to three months. Before sowing, turn the trenches in advance, and then dig trenches according to the terrain to determine the length of the trenches. After sowing, cover the soil, plow and compact the soil. And control the amount of watering and weeding at regular intervals.

Cutting propagation of Malus truncatum

If the cutting propagation method is used for the Malus oleraceus, it can be carried out in spring, summer and autumn. The main steps are to select branches with good development and growth (1-2 years old) and cut them into cuttings (2-3 cm long), and leave about 2-3 sections on each cutting. Generally speaking, the Malus oleraceus can be propagated by cuttings on a large scale, especially in spring. After taking the cuttings, dig trenches (2-3 cm deep) in the prepared seedbed, insert the cuttings diagonally into the trenches, then fill with soil and compact it. After this it can be watered and covered with grass. Be sure to keep the soil moist while the cuttings are growing, and remove the grass cover once the cuttings have grown new leaves and roots.

Layering propagation of Malus truncatum

The breeding time is generally in spring and autumn, that is, mid-March and mid-September. The main steps are to first dig a hole around the old tree, then bend the branches growing at the roots of the old tree and press them into the hole, bury the middle part of the branches in the soil, and leave the tree outside. It should be noted that in order to promote its growth, you can cut a hole in the branch near the base, and then cut off the branch after the branch under the soil takes root.

Propagation of Malus truncatum by division

Generally, division propagation is carried out in spring and summer. The method is to dig out the mother plant and divide each plant, making sure that each plant has a stem, and then cultivate them separately, water them, and place them in a shaded place for cultivation. This method is very easy to survive.
