Breeding methods of female chicks of succulent plants (leaf insertion method) breeding methods of female chicks

The reproduction of succulent plants can be divided into the following types, one is leaf cutting propagation, the other is cutting propagation, and the other is separate plant propagation. Leaf insertion propagation is a very simple one of the many reproduction methods of succulent plants. If you don't believe it, let's take a look at how the leaf insertion reproduction of female chicks is carried out.

Breeding methods of female chicks of succulent plants

First, prepare the female young leaves before they are inserted

1. Soil: choose the soil with good air permeability and water retention, and buy some red jade soil or vermiculite if possible, which can improve the survival rate of leaf cutting.

2. Small spray can: to ensure high humidity for leaf cutting, it is easiest to cut in the greenhouse. Therefore, in order to create the atmosphere of the greenhouse, we should often water and moisturize.

Knife: usually the leaf is cut off directly from the parent plant, or cut with a knife, so a sharp knife is necessary, but it is best to sterilize it before use.

4. Chick: this is not a must. You can buy a few leaves online, or break a few leaves from a friend. You can start from scratch, or you can grow meat.

Second, the leaf insertion method of female chicks.

The configured soil or pure vermiculite or red jade soil can be used, wet with water first. Put it aside and set it aside. Then lay the dried leaves flat on the soil and get it done. The rest is to spray water every day, do not flip the leaves at will, slowly will take root, soon a week will be Schengen. After taking root, bury the root in the soil, let it absorb nutrients, and soon many small buds will grow. Look forward to it!

The breeding method of female chicks

1. Soil selection

Every time we talk about succulent plants, we always talk about the issue of soil distribution. Conservation will be easier only if the soil is chosen right. The soil of female chicks usually choose one part of peat + vermiculite + perlite, and add appropriate amount of bone powder. It can also be mixed with 3 parts of rotten leaf soil, 3 parts of river sand, 1 part of garden soil and 1 part of slag. To make it a little simpler, buy succulent soil directly, mix it with sand, sterilize it and use it.

2. Watering method

Spring and autumn is the growing season for chicks, so they should be given plenty of water. Hot summer season to pay attention to water control, a small amount of water supply is good, do not need to water thoroughly, watering should pay attention, when the sun is strong, do not drench the water to the heart of the leaves. In winter, water can be supplied as long as the temperature is controlled above 0 ℃, and the water will be cut off below 0 ℃. Watering time, spring and winter season choose a warmer time at noon, summer afternoon or evening cooler time. Do not water at will regardless of time.

3. Lighting requirements

Chicks need to receive sufficient light, the plant type will be compact and beautiful, and the red leaves will be more obvious and more ornamental. You can try full-time maintenance and appropriate shade at the height of summer.

4. Temperature requirement

The most suitable temperature for the growth of female chicks is 1525 ℃ (this is the case for most meat), and the winter temperature should not be lower than 5 ℃. It can be cultured in the open air in summer, but when the temperature is higher than 35 ℃, it will be moved to the bright scattered light, the water will be cut off slowly, there will be little water during the whole dormant period, and the culture will resume when the temperature drops in mid-September. The chicks who adapt to the environment can grow normally in summer, and the dormancy phenomenon is not very obvious.

Characteristics and brief introduction of female chicks

Female chicks (Echeveria & # 39th) are succulent plants of the genus Elaeagnus in Sedum family. It is characterized by a small plant shape and orange-pink leaf edges. It is easy to grow lateral buds, and perennial plants can form a spectacular large community. The stems of female chicks are not very stout and will gradually grow in groups with the growth of time. The leaves are densely arranged in rosette type. The leaves are thick and spoon-shaped, the leaves are emerald green to pink, the new leaves are light and the old ones are dark. The strong light has a large temperature difference between day and night, or the leaf color is dark and the leaf edge is slightly pink during the low temperature period in winter. In low light, the leaves are light green. The edge of the leaf is often pink in autumn when the temperature difference is large. The leaves are covered with white powder, and the white powder of old leaves is smooth after falling.

How to slow down the seedlings of chicks

Slow seedling is a problem that everyone will encounter, how can the chicks just bought make it grow better? Just buy the chicks, plant them in the fluvo-aquic soil, put them in a bright ventilated place for 1-2 weeks, and then gradually increase the light, during which time you can water them as appropriate. Keep well ventilated to avoid the breeding of bacteria and black rot.

After reading the leaf insertion method of female chicks, do you think this method is very simple and convenient? In fact, leaf insertion is not only very simple and easy to operate, but also has batch characteristics, a leaf insertion can be a large number of operations, so for those varieties that are easy to breed, you might as well use the leaf insertion method to make you harvest full of cuteness.
