Should I bury the leaf cuttings when they have just taken root?

1. Should it be buried?

After leaf cuttings, if new small roots grow, they need to be buried. If left alone, it will continue to consume the nutrients in the mother leaves and it will easily dry up and die, so it must be dealt with as soon as possible after it grows roots. It should be noted that the soil needed for burying the roots should not be too dirty, but clean.

2. Rooting method

After leaf cuttings, it will grow a lot of fine roots over a period of time. Before burying the roots, the mother leaves need to have better contact with the substrate and the position needs to be moved appropriately. Then, bury the roots with clean fine soil. The soil should not be too dry and should have a certain amount of moisture to help it grow better.

3. Notes

1. You need to be extra careful when burying the roots. The newly grown roots are very fragile. If the roots are accidentally damaged, it will be difficult for them to continue to take root.

2. When the soil becomes dry, it is necessary to spray water in moderation, but the amount of water should not be too much, as long as the soil is slightly moist.
