How does lavender reproduce?

1. Cuttage propagation

Cutting is one of the common propagation methods of lavender, and it is also more suitable for propagation in this method. The time to breed is usually in spring or autumn. First of all, select the healthy female parent, then select the semi-lignified flower branch from it, cut it off with sterilized tools, cut it into a length of about 8-10cm, and then remove the leaves below it.

Then, insert it into the sterilized loose and breathable culture soil, careful not to insert it too deep. After insertion, you need to water once to ensure that the soil is moist, and finally cover with a film to keep the soil moist. After cutting, it needs to maintain a certain humidity and temperature, and after about 10 days, it will take root.

2. Sowing and reproduction

Sowing is also one of its available ways of reproduction. The time of sowing is usually spring or autumn.

Before sowing, it is necessary to prepare loose and breathable soil and spray water properly to ensure humidity. Then spread the seeds evenly to the surface of the culture soil. Note that it needs to be sprinkled evenly, and the spacing between species should not be too large or too small. If it is too large, after the plant grows, the spacing between plants will be too large, which will not only affect the ornamental, but also waste soil resources; if it is too small, the plants will compete for soil, light and other resources, resulting in poor growth.

After sowing the seeds, you need to cover a thin layer of soil, and then spray water to moisturize at the right time. In about a week or so, a small bud will grow out.
