The method of leaf insertion propagation in plain sailing

Plain sailing, also known as white palm, is a common indoor flowering plant, which can not only purify the air, but also be used as cut flowers. What is the method of leaf insertion and propagation?

First, what is the method of smooth sailing and leaf insertion?

Select several strong plain sailing flowers, cut off the thick stem nodes on the plant, soak them in rooting powder solution for 1-2 hours, then remove them and air-dry. After being air-dried, it can be directly inserted into the garden soil. Do a good job of water and fertilizer in the later stage, and the temperature is controlled at about 28 degrees, which will sprout in about a month.

Second, what are the smooth breeding methods?

1. Ramet propagation

Ramet is one of the common propagation methods in smooth sailing breeding methods, which is mainly carried out from May to June in spring. first, the whole plant is taken out of the basin, the mother plant and rhizome are cut, and part of the mother plant is washed with clean water. after drying in semi-shade for a period of time, it can be cultivated in moist sand.

2. Sowing and reproduction

Generally, the seeds can be harvested after smooth flowering. After harvest, the seeds can be soaked in warm water for about 5 hours, and the optimum temperature for germination is controlled at about 30 ℃. After planting, they are covered with a layer of plastic film to protect moisture. If the temperature is too low, they should be moved to the greenhouse for cultivation and germinate about half a month after sowing.

3. Tissue culture

When tissue culture is used for smooth sailing, explants such as stem tips, leaves or inflorescences can be soaked in alcohol for about 30 seconds, and then soaked in a thin solution of benzylaminoadenine and indole acetic acid. Adventitious buds can grow after about 1 month, and they can be transferred to the medium of indole acetic acid to induce rooting.
