Cutting method of Phellodendron amurense

The propagation of tiger skin orchid is mainly carried out through cutting and ramet, the survival rate of ramet propagation is high, close to 99%, and the survival rate of cutting propagation is also relatively high, close to 90%, and its biggest advantage is that it has many cuttings at one time and the propagation speed is fast. Next, let's take a look at Hu Pilan's cutting method with the editor.

1. Selection of basin soil

The flowerpot for cutting should be reasonably selected according to the number of cuttings, and the number of cuttings should be large, otherwise, small pots should be chosen. The soil likes to be in loose and fertile sandy loam, with good ventilation and drainage, which can be properly mixed with some sand or sawdust to facilitate drainage, so that it can breathe better and take root and sprout faster. If possible, disinfection water can be properly added to the soil, which can reduce the number of bacteria in the soil and reduce the occurrence of diseases.

2. Leaf treatment

The next step is to deal with the leaves, first of all, with sharp scissors or blades, select the disease-free mother plant to cut off the robust leaves, and then cut the leaves short, each section is about 6-7 cm, and preferably with one or more buds. Cut a small slant at the bottom of the branch so that it can take root quickly. after cutting it, leave it in a cool place for a day and wait for the wound to dry so that it can take root and sprout, while avoiding the invasion of bacteria.

3. Cutting method

After the wound heals, the cuttage is inserted into the soil. The cutting depth is about 3 cm. After cutting, a layer of fine sand is sprinkled on the soil of Tiger Pilan, which can effectively stabilize the temperature of the soil. The cuttage tiger skin orchid, placed in a place with sufficient scattered light for maintenance, can promote its root growth.

4. Rooting and maintenance

After the cuttage, the cuttings should be watered once a day to keep it in a moist environment, so that its branches can adapt to the environment as soon as possible, and can also take root and sprout quickly. It is best to keep the maintenance environment at about 23 degrees after cutting. this temperature is the most suitable for tiger skin orchid to take root and sprout, and the root system can grow in about a month. The method of cuttage propagation is relatively simple, but it is difficult to maintain in the later stage. It takes 2-3 months for complete rooting and germination. This process requires patience and carefulness.
