[frequently asked questions] Propagation methods of Metasequoia glyptostroboides

[expert answers]

1. Sowing and reproduction

The seeds are collected immediately after the cone is ripe, and after exposure, the seeds are screened out and stored dry. Sow seeds in spring in March. The sowing rate of 0.75~1.5kg per mu should be strip sowing (row spacing 20~25cm) or sowing. After sowing, the grass cover should not be too thick, and the soil should be kept moist frequently.

2. Cuttage propagation

Hardwood cuttings and tender wood cuttings can be used.

3. Hardwood cuttings

Selection of cuttings mother tree: 1-year-old robust branches were cut from 2 ~ 3-year-old mother trees as cuttings.

Cutting time: cutting in January, cutting around March 10.

Cuttings specification and treatment: cuttings cutting length 10~15cm, then according to 1001 bundle in sand softening, heat preservation, moisturizing and anti-freezing, before cutting with the concentration of 100mg/LABT1 rooting powder solution soaked for 10 hours for 20 hours.

Post-cutting management and cutting methods: using field cutting, planting 20,000 ~ 30,000 plants per mu, raising seedlings in full light after cutting, watering, weeding and loosening soil at the right time.

Effect: the branches soaked with ABT rooting powder took root 15-20 days ahead of time, the rooting was more and thicker, and the survival rate was more than 90%, which was about 35% higher than that of other branches without ABT rooting powder.

4. Softwood cutting

From late May to early June. Select semi-lignified twigs as cuttings, grow 14~18cm, retain top tip and upper 4-5 feather leaves, insert 4~6cm into soil, and plant 70, 000 ~ 80, 000 plants per mu.
