The cutting method of all over the sky star

The flowers in the sky are small, but they bloom more, usually from June to August, but if they are well maintained and managed, they can blossom throughout the season, whether as flower arrangement or potted plants, they can often bloom beautifully. And the propagation of Mantianxing is also relatively simple, not only can sow and raise seedlings, but also can adopt cutting means to breed seedlings. Today, the editor will share with you the cutting methods full of stars.

1. Cutting time

Because the most suitable growth temperature is 15-25 °C in daytime and 10-15 °C at night, and it is more suitable in spring, cuttage seedlings are mostly raised in spring. Of course, if the temperature is suitable in autumn, it can also be carried out in autumn, but mostly in spring.

If the temperature conditions are satisfied, it is often not limited by the season, generally in the spring from mid-March to early July or from late September to early November in autumn, the survival rate is relatively high.

2. Cutting process

Mantianxing should adopt hardwood cuttings to breed potted seedlings. First of all, one-year-old mature branches are cut from the potted mother plant as cuttings, and the length should be kept at about 10-15 cm. Then insert it into the slotting machine, generally 1 month time can take root.

However, when cutting in the rainy season, we can also adopt the method of softwood cutting. first, we can cut the sturdy twigs that are born in the same year and have obvious advantages at the top as cuttings, and the length should be kept at about 10-15 cm. Then insert it into the inserting bed and take root in about 2-3 weeks.

III. Technical points

The cutting method of Mantianxing is also relatively simple, and the cutting process is roughly the same as that of many other flowers and plants, but in order to improve the survival rate of cutting, we need to do the following aspects:

1. The slotting machine should be kept soft, breathable and permeable. Special peat soil can be used as the slotting machine, or perlite can be used as the slotting machine.

2. When making cuttings, the length should be more than 10 centimeters, and the original cuttings should have 4-5 pairs of leaves.

3. As the rooting rate after cutting is relatively low, in order to promote rooting and germination, it is suggested that we stick some rooting powder at the base of the cuttings, or use growth hormone to treat it to promote rapid rooting.

4. Due to the strong germination ability of Mantianxing, a large number of branches will germinate during the growth period, so when cutting, 3-4 cuttings can be inserted into a flowerpot, otherwise the growth may be too dense in the later stage. resulting in excessive competition for nutrients and crowding.

5. During the period of cutting propagation, it is necessary to do a good job in the management of temperature and moisture, and the temperature should be kept above 15 ℃, and water spraying and moisturizing should be done at the same time. It usually takes 3 weeks to take root, and after rooting, you can wait for a chance to transplant after 3 weeks of cultivation.
