The cutting time is also crucial, which can affect the survival rate. The cutting time can be chosen from April to July every year, which can be carried out in this period. It is in the active period, and it is very easy to take root. It's not impossible to choose other time, but the chance of survival will be reduced.
The selection of cuttings is also very important. Cut the branches with good growth on the healthy mother tree. The length is about 15 cm. It does not need to be too long. The upper part should have the new shoots of the year. It should be noted that the survival rate is related to the age of the branches. The annual branches should be selected, which is easier to survive. If the 3-6-year-old branches are selected, most of them will lead to decay and death.
The soil used for cutting requires air permeability and nutrition. It can be used for fine river sand, perlite, etc. it should be disinfected in advance to reduce the impact of pathogens and pests. After preparation, spray water into the soil properly to keep it moist but not ponding.
The cut branches can not be cut directly, can peel off the outside skin, can also dip into the rooting agent, can play a role in promoting rooting. Insert the treated branches into the soil, pour water into them and wait for roots to grow.
