How to propagate green radish by cuttings

1. Time Selection

You should choose the right time for cuttings, try to choose April to August. The climate during this period is very suitable, which is good for rooting and can also increase the rooting rate. It can also be carried out in other seasons, but the survival rate is not very high.

2. Cut branches

Choose a plant with good growth condition and cut a branch from it as a cutting, with a length of about 15-20 cm. It is best if it has aerial roots to facilitate rooting. Process the branches, cut off the leaves below, and keep 1-2 leaves on the top. After cutting it, you cannot use it for cuttings directly. You can put it aside to dry in the sun first to allow the cut to dry slightly.

3. Prepare the matrix

When drying branches, you need to prepare a suitable substrate. Clean sand can be used and it must be disinfected before use. To ensure good water permeability, pour an appropriate amount of water into it and keep it moist.

4. Take cuttings

Insert the cut branches directly and obliquely into the substrate, then spray water on the leaves of the cuttings frequently. Maintain the temperature within a suitable range and they will take root in about ten days. In addition to using soil cuttings, you can also use water cuttings directly. This method is relatively convenient. Pay attention to changing the water regularly and the plants will survive in about ten days.
