How to plant honeysuckle, how to plant honeysuckle

Honeysuckle can be propagated and planted by cuttings, branching, striping and other methods.

Honeysuckle can be planted by sowing seeds. Generally, it is sown in April every spring to obtain the mature seeds of honeysuckle, treat the seeds, soak them in warm water for about 24 hours, and then mix them with wet sand for germination.

When the seeds of honeysuckle have 30% cracks, they can be sown, which can greatly improve the survival rate of planting.

Prepare loose and well-drained soil as seedling soil, and spread the seeds evenly into the soil to maintain good humidity to germinate in about 10 days.

5 steps of honeysuckle cultivation method.

Honeysuckle is very adaptable, prefers strong sunlight, and is also hardy, so outdoor wintering is not a problem in winter. Although honeysuckle often grows on hillsides, in recent years, more and more people have begun to grow honeysuckle in potted homes at home, so is honeysuckle difficult to raise? How to plant potted honeysuckle?

1. Prepare potting soil.

Soil is the key to how to raise honeysuckle, and it is also a very important part of the planting method of potted honeysuckle. Family pot honeysuckle needs to choose a slightly larger and deeper large pot, honeysuckle likes loose and permeable potting soil, can be used garden soil, vermiculite, coarse sand according to 7:2:

Mix the ratio of 1 and put it in a basin for later use.

2. Plant seedlings.

Plant the prepared honeysuckle seedlings into the prepared potting soil, water them sufficiently, and then place them in a cool and ventilated place for a week slowly, and then carry out the daily maintenance of honeysuckle planting management.

3. Watering appropriately.

Honeysuckle vines grow very fast, especially potted plants must limit the growth of vines, shelter from rain in spring, and reduce the frequency of watering to prevent the plants from growing. After picking honeysuckle, you can water it once every 3 to 5 days when the weather is fine, and wait until the surface of the potting soil turns white in winter.

4. Fertilize before flowering.

Before the formation of flower buds of potted honeysuckle, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be applied to promote the formation of flower buds and increase the amount of flowering. In the planting method of potted honeysuckle, you can also combine the repotting and apply a small amount of cake fertilizer as a base fertilizer in the spring, and you need to stop fertilizing in winter.

5. Shaping and pruning.

If potted honeysuckle wants to maintain a beautiful plant shape, pruning is inevitable. After planting honeysuckle in a pot, it is necessary to start dwarfing and pruning to develop thick branches. During the growth period, the vigorous buds should be removed, and the strong branches should be plucked in advance, and the pruning should be pruned first and then left short, so that not only the amount of flowering is large, but the plant type can also be plump and beautiful.

What is the maintenance method of honeysuckle.

The honeysuckle planting method is as follows:

1. Planting time.

In the planting method of honeysuckle, the planting of honeysuckle is recommended to be carried out in the spring and autumn of each year, because the climate in spring and autumn is the most suitable for seed germination, which greatly improves the survival rate of planting. The specific time is 3 May in the spring and 9 October in the autumn.

2. Potting soil. If you want potted honeysuckle to grow vigorously, it is best to prepare loose, breathable, drainable and fertile soil, and choose river sandy soil, pastoral soil, and humus soil according to 4:3:

The ratio of 2 can be mixed to meet the growth of honeysuckle, and it can also be directly maintained with nutrient soil. Flower pots should be slightly larger to meet the need for space.

3. Select seedlings.

Whether it is a seedling propagated by sowing or a seedling propagated by cuttings, it is necessary to ensure that the growth is robust and the root system is intact, so as to ensure the survival rate. It is best to carry soil with soil when digging, which can protect the root system well, and will adapt to the new environment more quickly after planting, and resume growth.

4. Plant seedlings.

When potting, first put part of the prepared soil in the pot, and then put the honeysuckle seedlings into the soil with the soil ball, and fill the soil to compact. In the case of bare-rooted seedlings, it is necessary to ensure that the root system is extended, and the surrounding soil must be filled slowly and compacted. After planting, it needs to be watered thoroughly in time, put it in a warm, well-ventilated and slightly shady environment, and the normal growth will resume in about a week when the environment is suitable.

5. Watering. Honeysuckle is very drought tolerant, so when the amount of rain is enough, it does not need to be watered, when the weather is dry, it should be properly watered, watered every 3-5 days after flowering, if it rains for a long time, it is necessary to pay attention to the problem of stagnant water, and when watering in winter, wait for the soil to turn white before watering.

6. Maintenance. Generally, the honeysuckle will be changed in the spring, and an appropriate amount of basal fertilizer can be applied when changing. In the second year after planting, a trellis can be erected, so that the vine branches of honeysuckle can be wrapped around the trellis and planted.

After three or four years, it is necessary to prune once to cut off all those messy branches, so that the growth environment of honeysuckle is more transparent, and it is also very beneficial to flowering.

Honeysuckle grows quickly and begins to bloom after 2 years of growth, regardless of the propagation method.

Propagation method: 1. Cuttings propagation in autumn from September to October. Choose a good seedbed, cut 1-2 years of robust branches, cut into 25 cm 35 cm long cuttings, remove the lower leaves, and then on the furrow according to 20 cm 25 cm row spacing ditch, ditch depth 15 cm 18 cm, according to the plant spacing 5 cm 10 cm obliquely inserted in the ditch, the ground exposed 8 cm -10 cm, fill the soil steadily, watering. If treated with rooting powder, the survival rate will be higher.

2. The propagation of the branch selects the strong plant type, large root diameter, dark green stems and leaves, no diseases and insects, and 2-3-year-old roots, and directly divides the plant as seedlings. Transplanted before the germination of the stinging plants from the beginning of winter to the following year, the survival rate was above 90.

3. Seed propagation: Pick the fruit in November, put it in water to scrub, take the mature seeds to dry, and sow the germinated seeds on the prepared flat furrow in April of the following year.

Honeysuckle is also known as honeysuckle. The name "honeysuckle" comes from the "Compendium of Materia Medica", because the honeysuckle flowers are white at the beginning and then turn yellow, so it is named honeysuckle.
