Steps for dividing bromeliadsThe best time to divide the plants is in early spring, around February or March. First, remove the mother plant from the pot and remove any excess soil. Secondly, use a knife to cut the roots into two or more plants. Then soak the divided small plants in 1500 times diluted Benomyl for five minutes, take them out and let them dry, then you can put them in the pot. You can also put them in the pot first and then immediately water the roots with Benomyl. Precautions for bromeliad divisionAfter taking out the mother plant, remove the excess soil and separate the intertwined roots as much as possible before cutting them. Each small plant that is divided must have a root system and the branches and leaves must be pruned to help increase the survival rate. Management methods after bromeliad divisionAfter division, water the roots or irrigate the soil thoroughly. Water less within 3-4 weeks after division to prevent root rot of the bromeliad. In order to maintain leaf transpiration and keep water balance, spray the leaves with water 1-3 times a day. Do not apply fertilizer within 3-4 weeks after division. It is best to place it in a cool environment and avoid direct sunlight. |
