Propagation method of lotus flower

Lianwu, also known as Yangpu peach, native to India, mainly grows in the tropics, rich in a variety of nutrients, has the role of treating asthma. At present, a large number of planting in the southern region, the economic value is good, the planting income is considerable. In planting promotion, including introduction, large area planting commonly used seedling techniques, that is, cutting, striping, sowing, these propagation methods, and then will separately describe the operation process of these seedling methods, as well as their advantages and disadvantages.

I. Cuttage

1. Advantages and disadvantages

At present, one of the most commonly used way of raising seedlings, rapid reproduction, can save time, can also come when the planting period is coming and raising seedlings. Easy to survive, cutting as long as suitable branches, suitable environment, can be cut, temperature and humidity suitable will take root, the survival rate is very high. However, after multi-generation cutting, the excellent characters of varieties are easy to disappear or change, easy to reduce yield and quality.

two。 Method

Cuttings collect healthy twigs or hardwood cuttings. Cuttings should be taken from healthy, vigorous species. The branches should be 10 cm long, flat at the top and oblique at the bottom. The cutting soil is loose, deep, fertile and drained. The cuttings are 6 to 7 cm deep in the soil. Watering after cutting to build sunshade net maintenance.

2. Air crimping

1. Advantages and disadvantages

Striping is mostly used for fruit trees that are difficult to cut, but it has strong fecundity and can maintain the excellent characters and genes of the mother plant. Therefore, we can use this method to achieve both points, but the production operation is more complex, and there are more large area processing procedures.

two。 Operation

Striping should be carried out in summer, first select a sturdy branch with a thickness of 3 cm, then peel it around 2 cm at the base, wrap it in sterilized wet soil, grow roots, cut off from the base, and grow into independent seedlings.

Third, sowing seeds

1. Advantages and disadvantages

Sowing can completely retain the various characteristics of the mother plant, seedling cultivation is relatively robust and adaptable, but the time of seed collection and treatment, soil preparation and seedling raising is too long, if a large number of seedlings are needed in a short time, it is difficult to achieve and take a long economic time.

two。 Carry on

Sowing is generally carried out in spring, seedbed sowing, plant spacing of 5 cm, row spacing of 5 cm, about, can also be evenly sowed, seedlings on the line after emergence. The sowing depth is about 4 cm, and the soil cover is shallow. Then watering, sunshade, heat preservation and moisturizing, can be used as a seedbed in the greenhouse.

There are three main propagation methods of lotus, each of which has its own advantages and disadvantages, which can be determined according to its own needs and climatic and environmental conditions. Specific operations can learn excellent methods and then accumulate their own experience.
