Water them thoroughly at once, and remember not to cause stagnant water.

3. Subsequent management

Basically can be germinated 7-10 days after sowing, after its germination, we can carry out follow-up maintenance, maintenance methods you can refer to the cultivation methods of cockscomb, here the editor will not introduce too much.

Cuttage propagation

1. Preparation in advance

The preliminary preparation for cutting propagation is mainly to select cuttings and soil, and the soil can be referred to above. In the selection of cuttings, it is best to choose branches with strong growth and no diseases and insect pests, so that the survival rate will be higher and it will be easier to take root. when cutting, you need to prune the leaves at the bottom of the branches, which we should remember.

two。 Cutting method

Among the propagation methods of cockscomb, cutting propagation is relatively seldom used, but if the method is right, the survival rate is also very high. first of all, we can insert an eye in the soil with chopsticks, and then insert the branches, which is generally inserted into 1/3. After that, you can flatten the soil by hand, water it, and then rest for about 15-20 days, and then you can take root, and then carry on the follow-up maintenance.

Then keep the soil moist and wait for germination (about 1 week).

Cockscomb sprouting, to properly control watering, do not water too much, when the seedlings grow to 3-5 cm, you can properly remove some not robust seedlings, retain robust seedlings, according to the need for appropriate transplanting, timely watering after transplanting, but not stagnant water.

When the seedlings grow 2 leaves, they are transplanted and planted in pots or in open fields. Cockscomb on the pot should be a little deeper, leaving only cotyledons on the surface of the basin, with 1:1 loam and fertile soil. If you want to cultivate a large cockscomb, you need to change the big pot, but be careful not to scatter the tuo, otherwise the seedling will slow down for too long or even die.

The cockscomb needs sufficient light during the growing period, and at least 4 hours of light is guaranteed every day. When the cockscomb grows to about 30 centimeters, it can be fertilized once. After topdressing, the excess leaves on the seedlings will be cut off, and the extra buds on the cockscomb should be watered properly when flowering.

Celosia cristata is a cross-pollinated plant, leaving seeds must be isolated to prevent hybridization and affect seed quality.

The head-shaped cockscomb peanut has not been coring for a long time, while the spike-shaped cockscomb flower has 7 Mel 8 leaves when coring, which promotes multi-branching. In order to make the flowers on the main branch of the cockscomb huge, the accessory axillary buds should be picked in time at the seedling stage.

The soil quality chooses the sandy loam which is fertile, loose and well drained, and avoid drilling wet soil. The growth is poor in thin soil, and the inflorescence becomes smaller. Cockscomb flowers like to have plenty of sunshine, strong plant growth, thick green leaves, large flowers and bright colors.
