How lilies reproduce

What the editor is going to introduce to you today is the breeding method of lilies, and the lilies here are not lilies, but edible lilies, which are very common Chinese herbal medicines. How much do you know about eating lilies? Do you know how it propagates? Let's follow the editor to read the following content to understand the breeding methods of lilies.

1. Seed propagation

The seed reproduction of lily is the most traditional way of reproduction, and this is one of the first methods we can learn about. The seeds of lilies are generally harvested in autumn and then sown in the spring of the following year. The use of seeds for propagation usually takes about a month to emerge, and the emergence rate of seeds is not high, and the growth rate is relatively slow, so this method has been basically eliminated in many areas.

2. Bulbous bud propagation

Bulb propagation is not all edible lily cultivation, so when we choose this method for planting, we need to analyze and understand the varieties of edible lilies. Bulblet propagation is mainly a way to separate the small bulbs from the mother plant to form new individuals, and then to plant them. For the acquisition of small bulbs, we need to press the underground stem after flowering and cover it with moist river sand after shallow burial, so as to promote the growth of bulbs and obtain them for planting.

3. Scale cutting propagation

The way of scale reproduction can be used in medium-scale planting, and it is also the most common way used by many small growers. In the use of scale cutting propagation, the bulbs are usually dug out in autumn, then the scales are broken off, and then the scales are uniformly cut into the whole soil, and the soil is watered thoroughly with water and covered with a layer of straw, so that new roots and new seedlings can be grown.

4. Leaf cuttage propagation

Leaf insertion reproduction is a relatively rare way of reproduction, although lilies can survive through leaf insertion, but the survival rate is not very high, so people who really plant lilies will not use it. It mainly uses the stems and leaves with good growth of edible lilies, which are cut into the soil after pruning and potion treatment. after cutting, we should pay attention to the management of water in the field to avoid the phenomenon of rot or withering of leaf stems and promote the rooting of stems and leaves and improve the survival rate.

5. Bulb reproduction

In fact, bulb reproduction can also be ramet propagation, which is the most commonly used way of reproduction of edible lilies at present, and it is also the one with the highest growth efficiency and economic benefits. the only disadvantage is that more seeds are needed and the planting cost is higher. Bulb is the use of lily it grows out of the fresh tuber for reproduction, so that its growth cycle is short, and the efficiency of reproduction is high, it is also excellent to improve the yield of lily.

The above breeding methods can basically be used in the planting process of edible lilies, and some breeding methods are not suitable for large-scale planting, so they slowly fade out of people's field of vision in the process of planting. Thank you for your support and encouragement. I hope the editor can help more friends who love planting.
