How to cut incense, it can take root and survive quickly.

Touching incense is famous for emitting fragrance on touch, but in order to keep it well, in addition to focusing on lighting and watering management, what is more important is that the growing season needs frequent pruning, pinching and other pruning. This can not only prevent overgrowth, control plant shape, promote branching, but also make potted plants more ornamental.

But for the pruned branches, generally do not throw them away, otherwise a waste of resources, because these branches can usually be used for cutting propagation. And if we use these branches for cutting propagation, we also need to consider the survival rate. So, pruning down how to touch incense cuttage propagation survival rate is higher?

First of all, we need to clean up these cut incense branches, select the ones in good condition, and then put them aside to dry the wound to avoid infection after cutting. But do not directly put in the sun exposure, but put in a cool and ventilated place, let it slowly air-dry, generally see the wound condensation become dry, can be used for cutting propagation.

The next thing you need to prepare is the flowerpot and the cutting substrate, it is best to choose a shallower flowerpot. If the flowerpot is too deep, the water in the pot is often difficult to evaporate quickly after watering, especially the water in the deep soil is easy to accumulate together. After a long time, it is easy to cause stagnant water in the basin, which makes the base of the cuttings rot and reduce the survival rate of cuttings.

If the flowerpot is too deep, you can put a layer of highly permeable particles on the bottom of the pot as a filter layer. Then put it into the basin soil and cut the cuttings to dry the wound. As the touch incense is very sensitive to water, afraid of waterlogging, so it is better to do a good job of drought rather than waterlogging, so the permeability of the basin must be strong, and suitable for shallow planting.

After setting up a suitable environment in the basin, spray the substrate in the basin with a spray can, and then cut the cut branches that touch incense evenly in the basin. It should be noted that although the cutting substrate is not required to be too thick, the depth of the cutting should be a little deeper, and the spacing should be controlled so that the leaves of the branches face out of the basin.

After completing the cutting, do not rush to water, after all, we use Chao soil cutting, and its touch incense itself is also more drought-resistant. Directly put the flowerpot in a cool and ventilated place for maintenance, during which the matrix becomes dry, you only need to spray a little water to moisturize. Usually in a week or so, cuttings can grow new roots, and the survival rate is very high.
