For succulents, it seems that only too many succulent plant branches and leaf cuttings are heard, but never heard of succulents can also be "root inserted".
However, not all succulents can be "root inserted", and one of the prerequisites for root cuttings is that there needs to be a strong root system, and the twelve-volume succulent class fits this very well.
Root cuttings in general, a mother plant under the drop of half of the thick roots is good, this is a demonstration, so all down, the mother plant is very harmful, do not learn!
1. Choose robust plants and pick a thick light yellow root system (white is easy to dry out, dark yellow is not easy to bud)
2. Cutting the root: This step is very important, when cutting the root, the head of the root tries to leave a small amount of stem tissue to facilitate the germination of the bud point.
3. Root repair: The steps can be basically ignored, the rotten root system is removed, and the broken branch roots are removed.
4. Select pots / soil: This requires that the bottom of the pot is breathable and does not need to be too deep, and the growing medium should try to choose large particles, according to their own preferences.
5. Upper basin: attention should be paid to the need to dry and heal the wound for a long time if there is a wound or incision, and the root system has small branch roots, capillary roots and no wounds, and can be directly on the basin.
6. Maintenance: In the early week, there are capillaries and no wounds can be watered a small amount, and no capillaries do not need to be watered, and watering begins after half a month. ps: Try to make the air humidity a little larger.
7. Bud points appear: under normal circumstances, buds will emerge around the stem tissue in 1-3 months, and the stem tissue will wither.
8. New life is born: at this point, you can start the maintenance in a normal state...
PS: The best breeding season for root cuttings is in late winter or early spring, and the root segments are cut from the mother plant for juvenile propagation, because the roots at this time have stored a lot of nutrients in preparation for the growth of the next spring, and the root cuttings have the best reproductive effect.
