The cutting time of Liriodendron chinense can be from March to April. At this time, the nutrients in the branches have not been consumed, which can provide nutrients for the growth of Liriodendron chinense. Moreover, it grows well in spring, has strong growth and germination, and has a very fast rooting speed. In addition to march to April in spring, you can also choose September to October in autumn. The cutting effect is also very good.
1. Hardwood: Hardwood can choose annual cuttings, which need to grow better without the influence of pests and diseases. The length of hardwood is about 15-20cm, and there are 2-3 bud points on the segment. Cutting can not be carried out immediately after cutting. Before cutting, dip the rooting powder to improve the rooting rate.
2. Twigs: the rooting rate of twigs is also relatively high. You can choose the twigs that are born in the same year, leaving 1-2 leaves on the top and the leaves below to be removed.
For the requirements of the substrate, it needs to have the permeability, good drainage, and will not accumulate water in the basin soil. But also rich in certain nutrients, so as to promote rooting.
When the branches and the substrate are ready, the cuttings can be carried out. The cuttings are not troublesome, only the branches can be inserted into the soil. After cutting, take sunshade measures, not directly exposed to the sun, and often spray water.
