What are the breeding methods of money-absorbing trees?

Money-absorbing trees can be propagated by leaf cutting, branch cutting, striping, high pressure and beheading. Among them, 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 following is a brief introduction to the operation of these breeding methods.

Introduction to the breeding methods of money-absorbing trees

1. Leaf cuttings

Find a plant that grows healthily and break off its middle and lower mature leaves. Don't push too hard so as not to hurt the plant. Prepare a basin of sand, insert the leaves into it, and do not water it immediately. You can also dry the leaves for a few days and wait until the wound is dry. After that, keep it cool and avoid being exposed to bright light.

two。 Branch cutting

Cut healthy and sturdy branches as cuttings, and remove the lower leaves before cutting. After pruning, wait for the wound to shrink before cutting, which can effectively prevent the stem from rotting when cutting. If there is rot at the base, the rotten part can be cut off and dried before cutting. The best time for cutting is in spring and autumn to avoid humid and muggy summer days and cold and cold winters.

3. Striping and high pressure

This is a safe and rapid prototyping method that uses the aerial roots on the stem of the mother plant to come into contact with the soil, which can be used when families propagate in small quantities. We can use the popular seedling breeding to do high pressure. The method is to soak the seedling block in water, then cut it open and not completely cut it, and wrap it in the place where there is aerial root. Wrap it securely in dark or black plastic bags to help keep heat and prevent the sun from burning the roots and replenish water with syringes. In order to prevent top-heavy, bracket protection can be set up, and a small amount of diluted liquid fertilizer can be added to replenish water in the later stage. In general, the mother plant can be cut off in 2-3 months. When root exposure is observed, the incision should be smeared with sulfuric acid powder, plant ash or tobacco ash.
