Propagation methods of wooden Milk Fruit

The wood milk fruit is an evergreen tree of the subfamily Phyllanthus. The tree shape of the wood milk fruit has a very beautiful ornamental value and is used as the raw material for landscaping by many gardens in our country. And the fruit of wood milk fruit is also a kind of well-known leaf fruit, the fruit is sour, sweet and delicious, rich in vitamins and other nutrients. Now also gradually began to grow on a large scale, so how to plant wood milk fruit to reproduce? The following editor brings you the breeding method of wood milk fruit, let's have a look!

1. Seed propagation

Seed propagation is the most basic propagation method of wood milk fruit. Every year, the seeds are taken out after the fruit is harvested, and then the pulp and other substances on the seeds are removed. The seeds were treated with seed soaking, seed germination, disinfection and so on, and whether to peel or not according to their own habits, and put them into the seedling bed after treatment. After about half a month or so, unpeeled seeds will gradually germinate, and their germination rate can be as high as 75%. However, seeds without seed coat can germinate in about a week, and the germination rate is much higher than that of unpeeled seeds. Therefore, when using seeds to propagate, peel the seeds as far as possible, which can effectively improve the seed germination rate, promote growth and shorten the growth cycle.

2. Cuttage propagation

In cuttage propagation, a strong tree with strong growth, high yield and no diseases and insect pests should be selected as the mother plant, and then 1-2-year-old robust branches should be selected as cuttings. The cuttings were divided into two groups, and then disinfected. After disinfection, the cuttings were cut into the prepared nutritious soil after waiting for the cutting incision to heal gradually. Meticulous management, do a good job in water and fertilizer work, prevent cutting cuts from diseases and insect pests, waiting for germination. However, after the test of experts, the rooting rate of cutting propagation is very low, and further research work needs to be done now. Therefore, it is not suitable for the current methods of planting and breeding, and we must understand it clearly.

3. High pressure propagation

High pressure propagation is a new method of propagation. First of all, strong branches within two years are selected to ensure that the branches are healthy and free from diseases and insect pests. Then ring-cut the branches, and the depth must not be kept at 2 cm until the xylem is about. About 60 minutes after ring-cutting, sprinkle an appropriate amount of rooting powder on the ring-cutting position, then wrap it in paper and thin mud, and spray insecticides to control insect pests. Then wrap a layer of film on the outside and tie both ends tightly. After about a month or so, the ring cutting site will heal, and then wait for another 35-45 days or so to take root.

The above is a brief introduction to the breeding methods of wood milk fruit, the reproduction of wood milk fruit is relatively simple, but the growth is slow, it takes a long time to achieve the fruit period. Therefore, after breeding, we also need to do a good job in management, such as water and fertilizer, pest control, weeding and so on. These are all we should focus on management, so as to ensure the growth of wood milk fruit.
