When can rosemary be cut?

1. Which month to take cuttings

The suitable time for cuttings is generally March-April in spring, or September-October in autumn. These two time periods are very suitable, as they are the growing seasons and are conducive to rooting after cuttings. It can also be done in winter, but the temperature outside is relatively low, so you can choose to do it indoors. As long as the temperature can be guaranteed, it can still survive. Because of the hot weather in summer, the cut site is easily infected by bacteria, resulting in rot, so it is not recommended to do cuttings in summer.

2. Cutting method

1. Cut branches: Cut branches from plants in good growth condition, cut them with a sharp knife, the incision should be flat and smooth, leave 3-5 leaves on the top, remove the leaves below, and then put the branches aside to dry.

2. Prepare the substrate: There are no special requirements for the container for cuttings. The substrate can be prepared with vermiculite, perlite, and peat soil. Put it into the flowerpot, press it tightly, and pour a certain amount of water on it.

3. Carry out cuttings: Insert the branches into the loam at a depth of about 4-5 cm. Pay attention to the spacing between the branches, and do not place them too close. After planting, place it in a ventilated and cool place, spray water mist on the plant regularly, and expose it to scattered light after it takes root.
