Time and method of cutting osmanthus

1. Time

Osmanthus cuttings are usually taken between May and July, or between September and October. The temperature should be kept around 25℃ during the cuttings. If it is carried out within these two time periods, the cuttings will contain more nutrients, and coupled with suitable temperature, after the cuttings are completed, not only will the roots take root quickly, but the survival rate will also be higher.

2. Methods

1. Cutting bed: Many people ignore the preparation of the cutting bed when taking cuttings. In fact, whether the cutting bed is suitable for the growth of cuttings will directly affect the survival. You should prepare some finer, more breathable and relatively flat soil, and it would be better if the substrate is slightly acidic.

2. Cuttings: Cut a branch about 10 cm long from the best growing plant. It is recommended to use young branches grown in the current year, and wrap them with wet paper towels or newspapers after cutting.

3. Processing: After bringing the cuttings home, cut off some of the leaves, leaving only two leaves on the top, and cut half of the leaves. Cut the base into an oblique cut and soak it in rooting water for 1 hour.

4. Cuttings: Dig a hole in the cutting bed, put the treated cuttings in, and cover them with fine soil around them. Then water it and it is best to cover it with a layer of plastic wrap. The cutting work is completed.
