The cutting steps of the money tree:

First day

The first step: the soil used for cutting should be watered one day before cutting to ensure that the soil used for cutting the next day is moist; select a healthy money branch and cut it off, and you can choose the length of the older branch.

Intercept branches

The second part: divide the two leaves of the branch into several segments, then take off each leaf with petiole, keep only one leaf in each segment, and don't throw the other leaf for reserve.

subsection

Part III: disinfect the petiole incision of each segment and another leaf, soak the pruning wound in carbendazim solution for half an hour to an hour (if you are not prepared, you can skip this step and dry directly), then leave it in a cool place to dry the water.

Leaf blade

The second day

Part IV: the money trees with small branches are dipped in rooting powder and neatly arranged in the middle of the basin soil, and in the remaining space around, the petiole of another cotyledon is also dipped in rooting powder and inserted into the soil around the middle of the branch. the depth of the soil can be 1 beat 2 or 1 jump 3.

Cutting arrangement

Step 5: put the cutting flowerpot in a place to avoid shade and ventilation, then spray water to the leaf surface and basin soil, and then spray water according to the degree of dryness and wetness of the basin soil to keep it moist.

Cuttings with branches take root

The leaves cut into the roots and the bean sprouts are tender buds.

Matters needing attention

The test standard of cutting soil is that it feels wet when you hold it in your hand, and it will spread out if you let go of it.

The intercepted branches will not fork and grow new branches from the intercepted position.

Segmented branches are easier to root with thinner ones; thick fingers can also be buried in the soil if you don't want to throw them, but the rooting process will be slow.

If you keep the basin humid, you can avoid watering it with heavy water so as not to cause cuttings to rot and lead to cuttings failure.

If the cuttage is successful, buds will grow directly from the soil, and new leaves will not grow from the cutting branches, so the leaves on the cutting branches can be protected if they are not rotten.

The growth process of money tree after cutting is to grow root first and then sprout, so rooting powder is still necessary, otherwise there may be no buds to grow for a month or two or more.
