Cutting Seedling technique of Lycium barbarum

Chinese wolfberry is a kind of Solanaceae plant. The Chinese wolfberry we eat in our daily life is the fruit of the plant. The planting area of Chinese wolfberry in China is very large, mainly concentrated in the northwest of China. When planting Chinese wolfberry, the most important thing is to do a good job of raising seedlings. Now the common method of raising seedlings of Chinese wolfberry is cutting. So the editor brings you the cutting seedling technology of Chinese wolfberry today, let's take a look at it!

1. Collecting and inserting

Before cutting, we should first do a good job in the collection of cuttings, and the collection time of cuttings is also fastidious. Generally, the sap is collected within the time when the sap has not yet sprouted. Generally before and after Ching Ming Festival, first of all, we should choose the Chinese wolfberry tree with high yield as the mother tree. Then the sturdy, pest-free branches with a diameter of about 8mm are selected on the mother tree, preferably overgrown branches as cuttings. Cut the cuttings where the cuttings are about 16 centimeters long, and divide them into several cuttings, each with about 4 buds. Cut the top flat, and then cut the insertion into a bevel.

2. Deal with cuttings

After the cuttings are ready, you also need to deal with the cuttings. First of all, before cutting, you should apply an appropriate amount of rooting agent where the cuttings are inserted into the soil, first dissolve the rooting powder with alcohol, and then pour into clean water. Then put the lower part of the cuttings in the rooting agent to do the soaking work, the soaking length is kept at about 5 cm. It is best to keep the soaking time at about 20 hours, and observe the cuttings after the soaking work is completed. If there is no abnormal situation, then we can control the cutting at the right time according to the actual situation.

3. Timely cutting

The cutting time of Lycium barbarum should be determined according to the climate and other environment, usually with picking and cutting, and the cutting should be well controlled. The cutting time is generally about 4.20. First of all, it is necessary to control the row spacing and open a good ridge and furrow on the cutting bed, and then pour an appropriate amount of water into the ditch before cutting. This can not only increase the water content of the soil, but also promote the rooting of cuttings. It can also improve the survival rate of cuttings. Cover the soil after cutting and step on it gently. And in order to improve the soil temperature and survival rate, it is necessary to cover a layer of plastic film after cutting, and the plastic film can be removed after germination.

4. Strengthen the management

After the cuttings take root successfully and begin to sprout, the membrane should be broken to prevent the seedlings from burning due to high temperature. After breaking the film, it is necessary to press the plastic film with soil in time, which can also play the role of heat preservation and moisturizing, and can also inhibit the growth of weeds. Then select the trunk when the seedling grows to about 30 centimeters, and cut it all off. And do a good job of wiping buds. In the early stage of seedling cultivation, we should pay attention to control the amount of water to prevent excessive water accumulation leading to cuttings rot. Watering should be mainly drip irrigation with small water, and the amount of water should not spread over the ridge surface.

The above is a brief introduction to the cutting technology of Lycium barbarum. In Chinese wolfberry cutting seedlings for about a year, seedlings about 60 cm high when you can transplant at the right time. When raising seedlings, we must pay attention to the management, especially the prevention and control of diseases to ensure the growth of cutting seedlings. That's all for today's introduction.
