Leaf insertion is one of the main ways for succulent plants to reproduce, and many succulent plants can be propagated by leaf cuttings. generally, there are more people in spring and autumn, but in fact, many flower friends insert leaves for succulent plants in winter. some meat friends recently used plastic bottles to insert leaves for succulent plants, saying that it would take root faster, but flower friends said that some leaves were black and rotten.

Succulent plants planted in leaves need a lot of humidity to take root and sprout. In the south, it is relatively humid, and the leaves are relatively easy to take root and sprout. But in the north, it is relatively dry, and many people spray water around the leaves. But when spraying water, you should be careful not to spray it on the leaves, so as to prevent the leaves from turning black. Succulent plants will occur a lot in the process of leaf insertion. When you encounter the situation of not taking root and sprouting, think about which link has gone wrong first. If there is no problem, you can only wait. Basically, as long as the growing point is still there, it will take root and sprout. It's just a matter of time.

Cutting succulent plants should avoid perennial plants or over-aged stems, because there are very few rooting elements in these tissues, while there are relatively many auxins in new succulent apical buds, germs and root tips, so be sure to choose one-or two-year-old plants. Growth hormone is an important material basis to promote the success rate of succulent cutting, which determines whether succulent cells can promote the growth of root system and accelerate the speed of division.

In fact, succulent leaf insertion is relatively simple, the more common is soil culture, directly put the leaves on the soil can wait for it to slowly take root, there are two ways, one is to use a smaller flowerpot to put a leaf insert, so that when you grow up, you don't need to move the pot, you can plant it directly. You can also use a larger flowerpot to put multiple leaf inserts, so that you can reproduce more. After taking root and sprouting, you can remove a few of them appropriately, and the others can be maintained directly, so that you can see the succulent plants filling the whole flowerpot when you grow up. It's very spectacular.

Succulent leaves must not be exposed to the sun or "soaked" in water at the initial stage of planting succulent leaves, this is a transitional period, during which the leaves do not change much, but the roots and buds will gradually grow in about 10-15 days. If the leaves show signs of blackening, it is recommended to loosen the soil with a small toothpick, aim the leaves at the bright place, and observe that if there are black wrinkles, it is likely to be a sign of water. If the end of the leaf has blackened, we can cut off one end of the blackened leaf and apply fungicide, leave it in a ventilated place to dry for 2-3 days, and then put it back to root again.

For the cutting of succulent plants, an appropriate amount of liquid nitrogen fertilizer is needed, which is very conducive to cutting rooting, but it is also necessary to follow the principle of lack rather than abuse, the right amount of the best principle. Carbohydrates and nitrogen compounds are two very important nutrients, which determine whether root cells can successfully synthesize nucleic acid and protein.

Here is a gathering place for succulent plant lovers, sharing succulent maintenance skills, welcome to follow and exchange.
