Pelargonium is native to southern Africa and is widely cultivated all over the world. It has a long flowering period and showy flowers. It is suitable for indoor display. It is one of the most common and excellent varieties in balcony and courtyard cultivation. Cutting propagation is a common propagation method of geranium. Let's take a look at the cutting method of geranium.

Cutting time of pelargonium

The best cutting time of geranium is autumn. In principle, cutting can be carried out in all seasons except summer, but autumn is the best. Because after the vigorous growth in spring and early summer, the geranium plant type is full again, and after semi-dormancy trimming in cool summer, the vitality blooms again as the weather turns cool, and the branches are the strongest at this time.

Cutting preparation of Pelargonium

Pelargonium cutting is different from ordinary cutting operation, it needs a cutting preparation process, select a strong branch growing in that year, find a branch less than 10 cm, and gently carve out a ring groove with scissors two centimeters below the branch, not cut, pay attention to the importance, avoid cutting, and do not scratch too deeply, otherwise touching and blowing will also lead to breaking, allowing the branches to continue to grow on the mother. Two to three weeks.

Cutting propagation of Pelargonium

1. Cutting container: it is the same as the ordinary cutting operation here, except that the transparent disposable plastic water cup is selected as the cutting container, because the transparent cup body is easy to observe the rooting of cutting branches. Before loading the soil, poke three small holes with bamboo sticks at the bottom of the cup to facilitate drainage and ventilation. Put the moist culture soil into a transparent plastic water cup, compaction, cuttage containers and media are ready.

2. Cutting method: cut the previously selected cutting branches from the depicted ring groove with scissors. After two to three weeks, the wound has been completely dry, but the branches are still full of vitality. Instead of drying in the shade, insert the branches directly into the soil and make sure there are one or two branches under the soil. After the cuttage is finished, it can take root around the semi-shade. During this period, the soil should be watered when the soil is completely dry, but to avoid being too wet.
