First, how do money-sucking trees reproduce?

The main propagation methods of money-absorbing trees are leaf cutting, cutting and high pressure, and the main separation method is generally beheading, that is, cutting off a part of the mother plant. Beheading can be carried out all year round, and the wound can be dried and cut in slightly wet soil to wait for rooting.

The mature and healthy tube leaves in the middle and lower part of the plant were broken by leaf insertion method, and the base was slightly oblique to insert into the matrix, and the coarse sand sterilized with boiling water could be selected for leaf insertion. It is necessary to create a natural scattered light environment to reduce the water loss of the cuttings. It usually takes two to three weeks to root out and transplant.

Branch cuttings should be cut off healthy and sturdy branches, and the lower leaves should be removed before cutting. The best time for cutting is in spring and autumn, and the cut branches are generally inserted in the coarse sand after disinfection with boiling water like leaf cutting. pay attention to shading and watering, and it is best to soak in rooting water after cutting. It can also take root for two to three weeks, and then transplant after root cultivation is stable.

High pressure is the method of using the aerial root on the stem of the mother plant to come into contact with the soil, soak the seedling block with water, then cut it and not completely cut it, and wrap it in the part where the aerial root grows. Wrap it firmly in dark or black plastic bags, replenish water with syringes, and add a small amount of diluted liquid fertilizer in the later stage, which can be cut off from the mother plant in 2 to 3 months.

The above is about the main breeding and maintenance methods of the tree, in the maintenance of the tree, we must be more careful and patient.
