How to cut the Gordian knot

For quick cuttings, use branches with leaves

The old plants growing in groups are very beautiful, but their resistance is relatively weak. After cuttings, the plants can be more resistant and easier to manage. Therefore, it is necessary to renew the old plants and keep them fresh and vigorous.

For quick cuttings, you can cut branches with leaves during the growing season for cuttings. The cuttings should be air-dried for 1 to 2 days, otherwise they will easily rot.

Things to note when cutting: pot soil

For quick cuttings, the soil in the pot should be slightly moist, not dry. Slightly moist potting soil can use a little bit of water to induce roots, and the branches with leaves will take root quickly and grow quickly.

Tips for cuttings: watering

Do not water too much after cuttings, and water should be added 2 to 3 days after cuttings. Just keep the potting soil slightly moist.

Because new plants have stronger resistance than old plants and are easier to manage, you should often cut the tender tips of the branches and use them for cuttings to renew the old plants.

The best season for quick cuttings is early spring. Flower lovers who have planted cleavers, go and try it out!
