It is not easy for succulent plants to survive by leaf insertion and propagation. Master the method to improve the survival rate of succulent plant easily

The succulent plant could be said to be on fire. With its cute appearance, it had sprouted many people's hearts. Today, our theme is succulent leaf cuttings. Leaf cuttings are used to produce adventitious buds and adventitious root types from leaves, and general fleshy ones can be used. Leaf insert is a common artificial propagation method of succulent plants. The probability of bud formation of leaf insert is large. Because it is asexual reproduction, its characters will inherit maternal nature and maintain the unity of plants. How can we improve the survival rate of succulent leaf insert?

Succulent plants in spring and autumn are able to carry out leaf insertion, but the temperature in spring is particularly suitable for leaf insertion, summer is also suitable, as long as the temperature is maintained at about 15℃ there is no problem, you can choose healthy leaves for reproduction.

Select the leaves used for leaf insertion, specifically to do these points: leaves should be mature and healthy, fully developed, not moth-eaten, can not choose yellow leaves. Of course, the young leaves that had just grown out were not good either. The leaves of fleshy varieties that can sprout from leaves are similar to those of thin snow ten-thousand-year-old grass and Ji Xingmei people, which have very small fleshy leaves. Generally, they cannot be inserted into leaves but cuttings. The leaves were thinner like Black Mages, and the success rate of leaf insertion was very low. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the characteristics of leaves that can be inserted are mainly thick leaves and large leaves.

Select humus soil suitable for plant growth, humus soil keeps soil moist for a long time, humus soil also contains rich nutrients, which can meet the nutritional components of meat in the growth period. After humus soil is prepared, it is best to put it in the sun, and then spray carbendazim solution into the prepared soil to make the soil moist. Cover it with bags, continue to expose it for two days, remove the bags and expose it for two days, so that the soil can be fully sterilized.

The so-called succulent plant cuttings, is to plant the growth point isolated, let it grow into a single plant. So as long as there are growth points on the leaves, they can be inserted. There is no saying that cuttings cannot be inserted into leaves. If you have to say it, only some leaves have a very low survival rate and a relatively high survival rate of ramets, so everyone uses ramets for propagation, such as Isuzu Jade and Bear Paw.

To sum up, succulent plant leaf insertion, as long as it can produce callus, can be successful leaf insertion. This is why some fleshy leaves, such as the Black Prince, can take root even when the leaves are broken. For some succulent plants of the Crassulaceae family, some without growth points can still be inserted into leaves, provided that the leaves are kept dry and the wounds are thoroughly dried without infection. In this case, there is a possibility of successful leaf insertion. In addition, the season selection of leaf cuttings is very important. Generally, it is selected in spring and autumn. This time is the growth period of plants. At this time, growth is vigorous and the survival rate of leaf cuttings is relatively high.
