1. Cutting time

Choosing a suitable time for cutting is the key to survival. Rhododendron cutting is generally selected in late spring and early summer, but because of its many varieties, the selection time is also different. Even if the cuttings are carried out at the same time, the time of their sprouting is also different, but generally speaking, the more appropriate time is in late spring and early summer. Generally, the western rhododendron is in late May, the spring cuckoo is in the first ten days of June, and the eastern rhododendron and Xiajuan are generally cut in the middle of June.

2. Cuttings treatment

The selection of cuttings is the first step of cutting. generally, a strong plant with good growth and no diseases and insect pests is selected as the mother plant, and then some semi-mature branches growing near the top are selected as cuttings. Cutting cuttings is best in cloudy days, only need to keep the top 3 or so leaves, the rest of the leaves can be trimmed off, the length of cuttings is about 10 cm. The oblique cutting of the lower incision is best under the section, and we can cut it in half if the leaves are too long. Put the cut part of the pruned branch into the rooting powder dilution solution about 5 cm and soak for about 1 hour.

3. Cutting method

You can use river sand as cutting substrate, or use river sand and peat soil at 1:1 as cutting substrate, which is also very good. First of all, prepare a bamboo stick the same size as the cuttings, make holes in the cutting substrate, then put the cuttings into the holes, and then press the surrounding matrix with your fingers. Finally, pour through the water, put it in a cool and ventilated place, in the case of low temperature and low humidity should pay attention to cover a plastic bag, play the role of heat preservation and moisturizing, in order to survive.

4. Post-management

After half a month of cutting, you can see that the cuttings have returned to normal leaf color, and then you can put them in a place with plenty of light for maintenance, but pay attention to avoid sunlight. Cuttings can grow new roots after one and a half months, when the covered film will be removed, while ensuring air circulation, the root system will grow well after a month, and then it can be put on the pot.
