Cutting Propagation methods of Phyllostachys pubescens

Fugui bamboo is a perennial evergreen herb belonging to the tequila family, which is of great ornamental value and is easy to breed. It can purify the indoor air, can be hydroponically cultured and potted. Because of its strong growth, roots and buds, cuttage propagation is often used in production. As long as the temperature is suitable for the whole year, let's take a look at the cutting propagation method of Fugui bamboo.

Growth habits of rich bamboos

It is suitable for growing in sandy soil or semi-muddy sand and alluvial clay with good drainage. The suitable growth temperature is 20-28 ℃ and can withstand 2-3 ℃ low temperature, but it should be frost-proof in winter. The hot and humid season in summer and autumn is very beneficial to the growth of rich bamboo, and it is the best time for its growth. Light requirements are not strict, suitable for growth under bright scattered light, excessive light, exposure will cause leaves yellowing, chlorosis, slow growth and other phenomena.

Cutting time of Fugui bamboo

Spring cuttage of Fugui bamboo is most suitable from late January (after Greater Cold) to mid-late February (around Rain Water). It can be cut directly in the field and can take root in 30-35 days. It can also be cut from mid-March to early April (from the Spring Equinox to Qingming Festival), preferably in late March. Because of the gradual increase in temperature and suitable humidity during this period, it can take root about 7-15 days after insertion, with a survival rate of 100%. Well-managed ones can be listed in the same year.

Cutting treatment of Fugui Bamboo

Fugui bamboo generally cut the stem without leaves as cuttings, 5 cm long and 10 cm long, preferably with 3 internodes, inserted in sand bed or semi-muddy sand, buried in 2 soil nodes, watered once a day to keep the soil moist, generally 35-45 days to take root. In recent years, it is common to cut the top panicle branch (that is, tender stem) into 20cm and 25cm and insert it directly into sandy soil or semi-muddy sand or alluvial clay field. After careful conservation and planting, it can be cut and used as bottle material during the Spring Festival.
