Cuttage selection is suitable in the first ten days of March in spring, and the survival rate of cuttage is high. Get ready to grow robust Hydrangea, select robust branches, keep 2-3 stem nodes, and remove the lower part of the leaves. You can buy soil specially used for cutting, or mix river sand and perlite with peat soil. Spray water into the soil properly, and then insert the branches. After cutting, pour water into the soil and root after a period of time.

I. cutting time

A reasonable cutting time can improve the success rate, and it is more suitable to select in the first ten days of March in spring. At this time, the temperature is suitable, and the air humidity is also large, which is conducive to rooting. Cutting can be carried out in other seasons, but its survival rate is not as high as that in spring. It should be noted that if cutting is carried out in winter, it should be carried out indoors and the temperature should be maintained.

II. Cutting branches

Prepare a thriving Hydrangea, select the robust branches from the top as much as possible, and keep 2-3 stem nodes. The leaves of the lower part of the branch should be removed, leaving 2-3 leaves at the top. Too many leaves in the soil will not only lead to decay, but also consume a lot of nutrients. Evaporation water is not conducive to rooting, but also can not be completely removed.
