Kale can be grown by cuttingsFirst of all, we know that kale can be propagated by cuttings. If kale is grown in potted plants, it will usually sprout and bloom in March and April in spring. At this time, it is best not to discard it, but continue to water and fertilize it. In this way, after the flowers fade, the old stems of the kale will sprout a large number of tillers. The old stems that have not sprouted tillers can be cut off, and then continue to water and fertilize and maintain them. In autumn, you can carry out cuttings. In August and September, you can cut off the grown suckers and carry out cuttings according to your needs. How to propagate kaleFirst of all, you need to determine the number of cuttings according to your needs, prepare the potting soil, and choose clean flower pots and soil. River sand or perlite is the best soil, and it should be disinfected and set aside. Then you need to trim the cuttings. After cutting the kale shoots, leave 3 or 4 leaves on each bud and then proceed with the cuttings. When taking cuttings, pay attention to the density of the cuttings. The leaves should not overlap. After taking cuttings, water them first, then place the flower pot in a cool place, and water them according to the condition of the cuttings to ensure that they do not wilt. Basically, kale cuttings will take root in about a week and can be transplanted in half a month. Precautions for cutting kaleNote that generally after cutting off the cuttings, the remaining plants can continue to be cultivated to grow multiple kale plants, and can also be made into old bonsai. Also, if you do cuttings in June, you can grow kale cut flowers. If you don't do cuttings, you can let the shoots continue to grow. If kale is placed in a vase, it will easily take root and can be kept for a long time in a room with bright light. |
