What to do with the old pile after the money tree cuttings sprout?

Do not cut off the old stump immediately after the cuttings of the money tree germinate, but let it continue to provide nutrients for the newly sprouted plants. Wait until the plant is mature or needs to be transplanted before cutting off the old stumps.

My solution is to leave it for a while longer, wait for 2 or 3 new shoots to grow, and the leaves of the new shoots are completely complete, and then cut off the old stumps.

Money trees generally have their leaves and branches ready for cuttings. Cuttings with 2-3 leaves on the cut leaves and shoots, remembering to make the incisions flat. You can apply some plant ash to the incision, so that the cuttings can be made.

Finally, put it in a cool place for maintenance, and gradually see the sun.

Money Tree. The failure of long roots to germinate may be due to temperature, and the germination temperature and rooting temperature are different.

How the money tree is maintained.

Cultivation management: temperature, growth temperature is 20 32, whether it is a potted plant.

It is still ground planting, which requires little change in average annual temperature, and productive cultivation is best carried out in a greenhouse with controlled temperature.

The money tree likes light and has a strong resistance to negativity, so it should create an environment with good sunlight but a certain degree of shade. It should not be exposed to direct sunlight.

In order to maintain the bonsai money tree, efforts should be made to create a moist and dry environment for it.

Due to the special climatic conditions of the origin of the money tree, it has formed a strong drought resistance, so the basic requirement for the cultivation medium is good permeability.

Money trees prefer fertilizer, in addition to the cultivation substrate should add an appropriate amount of cake fertilizer or multiple slow-release compound fertilizer.

In addition, potassium dihydrogen phosphate can be watered 2 3 times a month during the growing season.

Mixed liquid, can also be poured balance fertilizer 20-10-20 (20-20-20) fertilizer. When the temperature drops below 15, all forms of top dressing should be stopped, so as not to cause fertilizer damage to the roots under low temperature conditions.

When cutting the stems, keep 2 or 3 bud points, and be careful not to hurt the bud points. Cut off the excess leaves on the stem, keep 2 3 pieces, insert them in loose and breathable soil, and water them appropriately. In the later stage, after the plant takes root and the leaves germinate, the plant can be given sufficient light, water and fertilizer.

Money trees can be propagated by cuttings on stems and leaves, and healthy stems that are robust and disease-free are often used. Cut in the early morning when the dew is heavier, making sure there are 2 3 bud spots on the stem. Be careful not to damage the bud point, if the bud point is damaged, it will not be able to germinate normally, and do not let the stem incision touch the water, otherwise it is easy to be infected with bacteria.

Cutting the stem, keeping 2 leaves and 3 leaves, can reduce the consumption of water and nutrients. If there are too many leaves on the stem, a lot of nutrients and water will be consumed, which will hinder the rooting of the stem, affect the growth of the plant, and reduce the survival rate. The purpose of keeping 2 leaves and 3 leaves is to photosynthesize, transform and accumulate nutrients after the plant has taken root.

The soil used for cuttings can be prepared with nutrient soil, loose and breathable fine sand soil or fertile pastoral soil, or mixed with humus and fine sand, which has a certain nutrient composition, and the air permeability and drainage performance are also relatively good. Insert the stem diagonally into the soil at a depth of about 3 cm, water properly and keep the potting soil semi-moist.

During the aftercare period, control the temperature at about 20 degrees Celsius and water it appropriately. The plant has not yet taken root, so it should not be exposed to sunlight, fertilizer, or excessive watering. After the plant has taken root, give the plant light in an appropriate amount.

If the plant sprouts slowly, it can be fertilized appropriately after the leaves grow, and nitrogen fertilizer can be applied once in about 30 days.

The cuttings of the money tree take root quickly include: the selection of branches and leaves, the selection of potting soil, and the cutting skills.

1. Selection of branches and leaves.

Money tree cuttings are best in spring and autumn, the room temperature is relatively cool and suitable, cuttings can choose a single leaf, you can also choose a section of branches, with leaves, cuttings with leaves on the branches It has a faster rooting speed and is easier to germinate.

Prepare a sterilized utility knife, cut about 5 cm of branches and leaves flatly, to find the branches are strong, and it is annual, such branches and leaves are cut and rooted faster, too young or aging branches are not suitable, after the leaf branches are cut, put in a cool and ventilated place, dry its wounds.

2. The choice of potting soil.

Cuttings can be prepared a slightly larger pot, so that they are not crowded with each other, its growth will be better, the soil can be peat, vermiculite, river sand, mixed together in a ratio of 1:1:1, these three soils are the most suitable for cuttings, leaf cuttings and sowing.

Because the peat soil is more fertile, it can meet the growth of money tree seedlings, and the water absorption and moisturizing effect of vermiculite and river sand is very good, the soil and the environment are moist, so that the rooting will naturally be faster, spread the soil in the open air, sterilize in the sun, and then pour it into the pot and pave it, and then water it thoroughly to take cuttings.

3. Cuttings skills.

The branches and leaves after drying the wound can be directly cuttings, or soaked in the rooting solution, and then taken out to dry after 20 minutes and then cuttings, so that the rooting rate and time will be faster, and the branches are directly inserted into the soil about 1/2 when cuttings, and the leaves of the money tree should be exposed, and then moved to a cool and ventilated place.

During the rooting period, the soil should be kept moist, and the leaves should be sprayed with water droplets, and the tree will take root in about 7-15 days. Its root system is more peculiar, the whisker-like root and the tuber root symbiosis, after rooting and growing new shoots, it can be brought to a place with scattered light, and it can grow into shape after normal maintenance for about 3 months, and then it can be potted separately.

The ecological habits of the money tree

It prefers warm, hot and slightly dry, semi-shaded and small annual average temperature changes, and is suitable for growing in 20 to 32. It is more resistant to drought, but it is afraid of cold, avoid strong light exposure, fear of heavy soil clay and water accumulation in the potting soil, and if the potting soil is not permeable well, it is easy to cause its tubers to rot.

The soil is required to be loose and fertile, well-drained, rich in organic matter, and acidic to slightly acidic. The germination is strong, and after cutting off the thick pinnate compound leaves, new leaves will quickly emerge from the top of the tuber.

Precautions for maintaining a money tree

1. At noon or in late spring and early summer, when it rains for a long time and the beginning of sunshine, you should pay attention to sun protection and give proper shade to the plants.

2. The potting soil should not be too wet in winter, otherwise it will cause the root system of the plant to rot under low temperature conditions, and it should be dry.

3. When the temperature is below 15 degrees, all forms of fertilization need to be stopped, otherwise the fertilizer will damage the rhizome under low temperature conditions.

4. When it is particularly cold in winter, it is necessary to pay attention to the cold protection of the plant, and at night you can put a double-layer plastic bag on the plant, and then take off the plastic bag when the temperature rises.

5. In summer, you should listen to the weather forecast in time and prepare for shade for the plants as soon as possible.

The methods of fast rooting of money tree cuttings include selecting suitable leaves, configuring cuttings soil, hands-on cuttings, and maintenance after cuttings.

1. Choose the right leaves

There is also a trick to the choice of cuttings of the money tree, choose some older leaves as much as possible, the leaves close to the soil of the pot, and pull them down, generally 8-12 cuttings at a time, remember not to pinch those tender green leaves at the top of the branches of the money tree.

2. Configure cuttings soil

Self-matching cuttings can shorten the rooting time, because the money tree is a "leaf cutting" not a branch cutting, the substrate requirements for cuttings are more stringent, the purchase of special cuttings is also possible, you can also match yourself, with river sand, vermiculite, coconut bricks, nutrient soil, according to the same amount of dosage, stir evenly, and finally sprinkle a small amount of "bone meal" into the soil of cuttings.

3. Get started with cuttings

Find a takeaway plastic box, preferably transparent, where rooting can be observed, make a few small holes at the bottom of the box, put the matching substrate into the box, spray water evenly on the surface of the soil with a watering can, and "insert" the leaves in the soil.

4. Maintenance after cuttings

The leaves are cut into the end, placed in the scattered light maintenance, can not be sunburned, it is best to be in a white foam box, cover the lid at night, have the effect of heat preservation, promote rooting, the general cuttings of the money tree will take root in 7-15 days, in the process of later maintenance, do not touch with your hands, natural growth is good, wait until the small shoots grow out, in the pot planting.

The money tree means good fortune, money rolls out, and it has become a green plant that people love to breed. How do you cut it? Below, combined with my own breeding experience, and everyone together.

1. Choose high-quality branches or leaves.

Whether the money tree can be cut to survive and grow rapidly, it is very important to choose good branches. There are usually three situations for selection: one is to select a section of leaf shaft, about 10 cm long, and require 2 blades to be brought to facilitate survival.

Second, you can choose leaf cuttings, deep and robust as well. Third, you can also choose a section of leaf shaft separately and insert it directly.

2. Choose a good cuttings of soil and lay a solid foundation for growth. Rent training.

Before preparing to cultivate cuttings of money trees, consider how to choose the soil for cuttings, which is the basis for the germination and growth of money trees. The selection criteria were that the soil should be loose and fertile, rich in organic matter, well drained, preferably acidic to slightly acidic.

The soil is loose and breathable, high-quality and fertile. Cuttings are made with soil, which can be sandy or made by yourself. Basic Method:

Peat soil, pearl ridge and river sand can be mixed in a ratio of 3:1:1, stirred evenly, and then prepared into a substrate for cuttings.

3. Grasp the standard of cuttings and learn how to cut them.

Depending on the size and depth of the pot, you can choose 8 or 10 branches. The cuttings are usually cut about 10 cm, the depth of the insertion is about 2 3 cm, and the difference in the shape of the big hand is about 1 3 of the spike length. In this way, it is conducive to the rapid rooting and germination of the money tree.

If it is a leaf, usually the leaf stem is inserted into the soil, with the leaves outside, so that the skin is ready. Basic requirements: do not insert too dense, otherwise it is easy to affect the growth.

In this way, it can ensure that the pothos has the corresponding space to grow and prevent it from being too dense. Cutting standard: Usually the distance between potted cuttings is 2 3 cm between each plant.

4. Grasp the watering standard and promote normal growth.

The money tree prefers warm, hot environments and slightly dry, semi-shady living conditions. Fear of cold, avoid exposure to the sun, fear of heavy soil clay, and avoid ponding soil. Therefore, money tree watering should be grasped:

If it is not dry, it is not watered, and it is watered thoroughly. At the beginning of cuttings, it is enough to keep it moist to ensure rooting and germination. After 2 weeks, it grows into a small bulbous stem with roots at the base of the leaf, which can be sprayed to keep it; After about 2 months, it can grow into small plants, which can be watered according to the principle.

Summary] Just now, we explained the method of soil cultivation of the money tree, which can be summarized into four steps: branch selection, soil selection, planting and watering, is it very simple!

The money tree can be used for cuttings with leaves, although it is called a tree, it is actually a herbaceous plant. Cuttings should be carried out when the temperature is stable above 20 degrees Celsius, which is more conducive to survival.

When cuttings, select the robust leaves of the current year and cut them, pay attention to retaining a part of the petioles, not all of them.

Insert the cut leaves into a prepared substrate, preferably with plain sand or vermiculite.

After cuttings, put them in a moist and dark environment, and it will be detected in about 20 days before they can take root. After rooting, the leaves are not easy to wilt, and after 2-3 months, the leaves that have survived will grow new shoots, and then they can be planted in pots for normal maintenance.
