The latest cutting propagation method of fig

Fig is rich in nutrition, taste better, its vitality is extremely tenacious, most of the planting is cuttings, ramets for reproduction, mainly cuttings. The following small series will take over the cuttage propagation of figs for everyone, and let's understand it together.

1. Cutting time

Fig cuttings are best eaten in spring, when the temperature is about 20 degrees can be carried out, then the survival rate of cuttings is higher, the next year can be transplanted results, some even can bear fruit that year. Cuttings had better choose saline-free soil, fig although saline-alkali resistance, but too high salt content, easy to die after cuttage, so to choose fertile soil or high organic matter content of soil is appropriate.

2. Cutting

Cuttings should be cut before the sap flows after autumn, spring cuttings can be carried out before germination, at the latest should not exceed March, otherwise the survival rate at that time is extremely low, cuttings should not be cut immediately, this will affect the survival rate, can be stored in the sand 2-3 months in progress. The length of cuttings as long as possible, fig shoot time is long, branch development time is different, its maturity will also vary with. The branches pruned in early autumn are older and can be pruned into 2 bud cuttings; while the branches in mid-autumn or late autumn are less mature and have shorter internodes, so they should be pruned into 4 bud cuttings.

3. Cutting treatment

After pruning is completed, cut a flat mouth one centimeter away from the bud at the upper end of the cuttings, and cut a 45-degree inclined mouth below the cuttings, so that the contact area between the cuttings and the soil is expanded, which is conducive to rooting. At the same time, it is also for chaos, and the phenomenon of inverted insertion occurs. In order to promote cuttings to take root as soon as possible, you can soak them in water for 12-24 hours before cuttage. The soaking time is judged according to the degree of water shortage. If the cuttings are seriously short of water, they should be soaked for a long time.

4. Cutting

Cuttings should be inserted obliquely, which is conducive to survival. The cutting depth is one-third of the cutting length. It is best to have a node on the ground. After cutting, the soil near the cutting should be compacted to avoid lodging of the cutting, and the water should be poured once. Just after cuttage fig afraid of strong light, so to do a good job shading measures, you can set a plastic bag on the seedlings, tied with a rope, and then open two holes in the plastic bag, so as to ventilate. At the same time, water regularly to keep the soil moist, and so on when the branches grow new leaves, you can remove the plastic bag.
