Begonia is famous for its delicate flowers and elegant posture. It is a common outdoor ornamental plant. If you learn the cutting technique of Begonia, you can easily propagate new Begonias indoors without having to go to the market to buy them every time. Let’s learn together the method of crabapple cuttings. 1. Cutting time The best time to take cuttings of crabapple is in early spring, around April, when the average temperature is about 20 degrees Celsius, an ideal climate for promoting the survival of cuttings. 2. Cutting steps a. Selection of cuttings Cut 5 to 6 cm long branches from a healthy crabapple mother plant as cuttings, retain the two buds and leaves on the top, and remove the bottom leaves to reduce nutrient consumption and promote rooting. b. Soil preparation Choose well-drained, aerated soil, such as river sand or humus, which will help prevent waterlogging and root rot. Expose the soil in the sun to disinfect it and ensure the soil is healthy. c. Cutting operation Insert the treated branches into the soil to a depth of about 2 cm. Water immediately after cuttings to ensure the soil is moist, and place the plant in a cool and ventilated environment. d. Management after cutting: Over the next 15 to 30 days, be careful to keep the soil moderately moist and avoid over-wetting or over-drying. Once the cuttings have taken root and started to sprout, you can gradually move them to a place with better light conditions. In short, choosing the right time for cuttings, using healthy cuttings and suitable soil, and proper post-management are the keys to successful crabapple cuttings.
