The fastest way to root rose cuttings

In order to ensure that the rose cuttings can take root quickly after cuttings, appropriate treatment measures can be taken. The specific method is: wrap the end of the cuttings used for cuttings with toilet paper. The thickness should be such that the oblique cross-section can be clearly seen after the toilet paper absorbs water. This way, the rooting situation can be observed very clearly, and it is also relatively breathable. Then spray the wrapped cuttings with water, put them into a plastic bag or plastic bottle, and place them in a well-lit and ventilated place. Note that you should poke a few holes on the lid of the plastic bag or plastic bottle. As long as the temperature and humidity are appropriate and the ventilation is smooth, the seeds will generally take root and sprout in half a month.

How to propagate roses?

1. Cutting time

It is best to do rose cuttings in spring or autumn, both of which are the peak growth seasons for roses, and the temperature is suitable, which is conducive to the health and growth of the cuttings.

2. Cutting medium

It is best to use a mixture of perlite , peat, and coconut coir. This way of mixing the soil is ventilated and breathable, and can maintain soil moisture without accumulating water. And it also has some fertilizer effect, which helps with rooting.

3. Cutting branches

Choose branches from strong, healthy rose plants that have not been attacked by diseases and insects. It is best to use branches cut from the main trunk.

4. Cutting method

After applying carbendazim to the wound of the cuttings for disinfection, place them in a ventilated place to dry until the wound shrinks. Before cutting, apply rooting powder at the base of the cuttings to promote rooting. Then place it in the prepared substrate and bury it firmly, then water it thoroughly to complete the cutting.

5. Maintenance after cutting

After cuttings, place them in a semi-shaded place, water them appropriately, fertilize them every 7 days, and wait for the branches to take root. In addition, sufficient light conditions are needed after cuttings, and 5 hours of light per day will help promote the synthesis of photosynthetic products and accelerate root growth.

Generally speaking, the reason why roses do not take root for a long time is that the cutting technique is not mastered well. Of course, in addition to soil-grown cuttings, roses can also be grown in hydroponics, and the survival rate is also very high.
