There are many propagation methods of bergamot, such as cutting, grafting and so on, so let's explain them one by one.

I. Cuttage propagation

1. Cutting preparation

First of all, we should choose several good branches that grow well and have few diseases and insect pests, cut off the leaves of the branches and the tender shoots at the top, leaving only simple cuttings, the survival rate of cutting propagation is generally more than 90%, and the seedlings can also grow better.

2. Land preparation

The nursery bed for planting should choose sandy soil with thick soil, which is very helpful for future seedlings. It is possible to increase the fertility of the land first, and then it is OK to splash human and animal manure, and then make beds.

3. Planting season

The planting season is in February and March or August and September in autumn, and it is best when cutting in autumn, but if it is chosen in autumn, the cuttings can take root in the same year and sprout in the following year.

4. Cuttage

When cutting, the first thing to do is to open a horizontal ditch on the border, keep the distance between the trench and the ditch at about 25 cm, and then calculate the distance between the plant and insert it directly into the ditch. It should be noted that the soil must not be inverted and compacted after planting.

5. Seedling stage management

Regular watering should be carried out after insertion, and then shading work should be done well. Rain Water should drain water in time, do a good job of weeding, and can be transplanted in about a year.

2. Grafting propagation

1. Cultivation

Grafting can be done by relying on or cutting through the abdomen, and the specific steps of the two methods can be searched on the Internet, and cultivation should be determined according to the age and growth of the tree. Quick-acting organic fertilizer is applied in the first three years, and topdressing three times in a year after entering the full fruit period. phosphate and potash fertilizer or compound fertilizer can be applied in the young fruit stage and harvest period.

2. Land preparation and planting

Planting can choose to be planted in spring and autumn, because the temperature will return to February, so it is better for the germination of new buds, first of all, deal with the surrounding drainage ditch, and then dig the nest according to the distance between plants and rows of 3m. After digging the nest, it is planted on top of each nest.

3. Field management

Intertillage weeding is carried out every year, and topdressing is carried out three times, first spring fertilizer, once before bergamot budding, then before and after the Summer Solstice, the last time in October-November, winter topdressing is the most important.

4. Clear the garden

Because there are a lot of fallen leaves and residual branches in winter, we should clean up the diseased branches and leaves frequently to ensure the re-infection of the source of the disease.

This is how bergamot propagates. The editor suggests that we should choose cutting propagation. Compared with grafting, the survival rate of cutting propagation is much higher, and field management is also more convenient. I hope this article can help you.
