I have been a flower farmer for a long time, and the plants do not buy the whole plant from the flower market, and they began to cultivate from the seeds, and slowly the seeds did not want to buy, and began to do cuttings. After the cuttings were successful once, they began to be fascinated, thinking about cuttings everything, and when they saw the branches, they wanted to plunge into the soil.
In order to solve the problem of itchy hands and want to cut cuttings, Huahua has prepared 2 kinds of fruit trees with a relatively high survival rate of cuttings here, learn to cut these fruit trees, half a month can give birth to "dog tooth roots", and you can also lie down and eat fruit at home!
One, the fig tree
Fig breeding conditions are not as complex as other fruit trees, breeding at home is also very common, after cuttings basically a year can see the fruit, the growth cycle is short, a branch into the soil, about half a month can take root!
1. Branch treatment
Figs are generally more suitable for cuttings in December, in December you can choose thick and strong branches, it is best to carry 4 or 5 buds of the branches on the mother plant, cut off about 10 cm long, buried in the slightly moist soil, probably next spring can be cut, so that the processed branches can produce "dog tooth roots" in less than 10 days, and the later maintenance will be easier.
If you don't want to pursue rapid rooting, it doesn't matter when the figs grow, you can directly choose the right branches for cuttings in the spring, but the whole process of maintenance should be more careful.
2. Soil
Figs should choose sandy soil with good air permeability, and it is also possible to use humus soil to infiltrate a little base fertilizer for modulation.
3. Cuttings
The branches should be dried and then cut after the time comes, and the branches can be inserted into the soil at a depth of about 5 cm, and the soil can be compacted and watered a little to keep the soil moist. If this is the indoor environment is not warm enough, add a plastic bag to cover the branches, use a toothpick to prick a few small holes to keep the air breathable, put it in a dark place and wait for germination.
Second, the pomegranate tree
The cultivation of pomegranate trees has been very common at home, and the root system of pomegranate trees is developed, the branches are also many, and the adaptability is strong, which is very suitable for cuttings.
1. Time
Pomegranate branches do not need to be preserved, can be directly pruned to do cuttings, the time of general cuttings is concentrated in spring and autumn, late autumn cuttings are more appropriate, because the autumn pomegranate branches are more nutritious than spring, and the temperature begins to gradually decrease, water will not be lost quickly, as long as the winter to do a good job of keeping warm.
2. Select branches
Pomegranate tree vitality is tenacious, the branches are very good to survive, when choosing branches to avoid long branches and exuberant branches, thick and healthy branches are more appropriate, it is best to take off the branches from the plants that have been cultivated for 2 to 3 years, and the future flowering time will be earlier. Choose a branch with a diameter of about one centimeter, and prune about 15 to 20 centimeters, which is also suitable for the size of potted farming at home.
Before inserting the branches, the soil should be watered thoroughly, kept in a moist state, cut off some of the leaves on the branches, leaving 3 to 4 pieces, otherwise it will affect the consumption of nutrients.
Insert the branches into the pot, put on a plastic bag when the temperature is not high, keep warm, and then put it in a semi-shaded place, and wait for about 5 leaves to grow, that is, wait about a month or so to see the new shoots!
Have you learned the cuttings of these two kinds of fruit trees? Have flower lovers who have successfully cut cuttings share their experiences again?
