Curing methods of hydroponic Gardenia jasminoides

Gardenia white flowers, green leaves, rich fragrance, in early summer season is the most attractive flower plants. Find out about the cultivation methods of gardenia.

Cultivation method of hydroponic gardenia

Gardenia hydroponic, need to take the length of 10-12cm annual branches, leave 2-4 leaves. cutting the tip of gardenia flower branch into a horse ear shape, immersing the gardenia flower branch into 0.1% potassium permanganate solution for 4-6 hours, taking out the gardenia flower branch and inserting the gardenia flower branch into clear water, wherein the length of the gardenia flower branch entering the water is 1/3 of the total length of the gardenia flower branch.

Gardenia hydroponic use brown bottle as container, every 1-2 days to change the water once, can also be drilled in the wood or foam board, the cuttings inserted into the hole, and then floating on the water surface, of which 2/3 of the length of the cuttings need to stay above the floating body, 1/3 inserted into the water. After the gardenia grows new roots in hydroponic culture, it needs to be moved from the dark place to the bright place. When the roots grow to 1.5-2 cm and the root quantity per plant is 6 - 7, it can be transplanted into the pot or planted in the ground.

Is it feasible to cultivate gardenia?

Gardenia likes warm, moist, well-ventilated environment with sufficient light and avoid strong light exposure. Gardenia suitable for living in a little shade, semi-shade resistance, fear of water, Gardenia is very suitable for hydroponics, hydroponics Gardenia root quickly, strong adaptability.

Gardenia hydroponics, first of all to select healthy branches, branches of good or bad directly determine the growth of plants. The branches selected for hydroponic gardenia can be selected from the main stem, and there are more than three branches on a trunk. Such gardenia is easy to survive in hydroponic culture and has beautiful plant shape.

Because gardenia branches may carry eggs, in order to avoid insects in hydroponics, it is necessary to clean gardenia flowers first, be careful not to damage the epidermis. The branches of hydroponic culture need to be trimmed off the branches and leaves of Chinese rice and the leaves bitten by insects. The larger leaves should be cut off horizontally by more than half to prevent the water from evaporating too fast, which makes the gardenia leaves wither and wither.

Hydroponic cuttings of Gardenia jasminoides

Of all the plants, I have never seen anything easier than planting gardenia flowers. It is very convenient to transplant gardenia flowers directly by hydroponic cultivation.

Time of insertion:

If you use hydroponics, you can actually do it all year round, because you can create the environment and temperature indoors. The best time is from early June to early August and from early October to mid-November. This time can be planted in soil or hydroponics. These two periods are called summer and autumn respectively. The temperature of summer and autumn is relatively high, and it is easy to root. Winter is a little worse.

Tools needed:

A container for water (glass, any bottle, OK, mineral water bottle), preferably of transparent glass, so that the clarity of the water can be seen, so that it can be changed at any time. Root growth can be observed.

If the container is large, it can be inserted into the bottle like a flower arrangement. If it is too small, it needs to be fixed.

Branch selection:

This step is actually the most important, this step is done well, it is half successful, gardenia branches to choose 1-2 years old branches, too tender easy to rot, too old and not easy to root. Skin color bright green, no pests, grow strong is the most basic conditions: gardenia varieties, common gardenia have "big gardenia","egg gardenia","small gardenia","narrow leaf gardenia","spotted gardenia" and so on, I personally prefer "big gardenia", open flowers big and white, rich aroma, so I in a pile of flowers, flowers in the middle and young gardenia trees chose the new two years of big gardenia branches for insertion. It is recommended to select several branches together for hydroponics.

Operation steps:

The selected branches should generally have three nodes, remove the leaves on the bottommost nodes, leave only 1-2 leaves on the upper two nodes, reduce transpiration, conducive to photosynthesis, leave 1-2 cm downward at the bottom nodes to cut into a post shape, if the branches are selected in the middle, leave 1-2 cm flat at the upper nodes. Root systems grow from bevelled cuts.

Insert the cut branches into the prepared bottle. Because it is hydroponic, do not need to consider the cultivation medium, only need to put water in the container, change at any time, so as not to cut rot.

Time and method of pruning gardenia in hydroponic culture

Gardenia should be pruned before budding in April. Gardenia flower quickly, the plant has been transferred from vegetative growth to reproductive growth, while the temperature is high, not pruning, not to cut comprehensively.

Gardenia flower bud formation in April, so April, May in addition to cutting off individual miscellaneous branches and leaves, generally should focus on bud protection; June flowering, should be timely cut off residual flowers, promote the emergence of new shoots, new shoots grow to 2, 3, the first time to pick the heart, and properly erase part of the axillary buds; August to pick the second branch, cultivate the crown, you can get a beautiful tree plant.

One is to control the height of gardenia, prevent excessive growth; the other is to suppress the top advantage, promote the growth of lateral branches, increase the number of flowers. Pruning can be done in two periods: (1) in May to July, and (2) around December. Each pruning only needs to trim off 2~3 pairs of leaves at the top of the branch, and remove the residual flowers together. After pruning, it is necessary to spray 1000 times of chlorothalonil once to prevent germs from invading from the wound.
