1. Sow propagation method of string-of pearls

Sow propagation method of string of pearls advantages: Sow propagation method of string-of pearls is a propagation method with a medium success rate. After sowing a few seeds, not all of them can germinate, but the price of seeds is very cheap, which is more suitable for large-scale breeding. If the breeding land is very large, sowing and breeding is the best choice.

Sow propagation method of string-of pearls: you should choose the good seed, and seed disinfection treatment, then choose sowing in spring season, after watering and fertilizing, could take root in about 10 days, the weather gradually warm, when to pay attention to the prevention and control of plant diseases and insect pests String - of - pearls, soon will be able to harvest a lot of String - of - pearls.

2. Leaf insertion propagation method of string-of pearls

Advantages of leaf insertion propagation method of string-of pearls: Leaf insertion propagation method of string-of pearls is the simplest method of propagation in string-of-pearls, basically just cutting leaves and placing them in the soil for propagation. But the success rate of transplanting is very low, and many of the leaves used for transplanting rot in the soil.

Method of leaf insertion propagation: before the string-of pearls propagation of leaf insertion, the relatively complete leaves should be removed from the mature mother plant, and then the leaves should be disinfected, and then the leaves should be placed in a cool and ventilated place to dry the wound. Then in the leaves placed in the new soil above, at this time do not be in the sun, prepare some more leaves for leaf insertion, so as not to appear an embarrassing phenomenon that did not take root and germinate.

3. Cutting propagation of string-of pearls

Advantages of string-of pearls cutting Propagation: Cutting propagation of string-of pearls is one of the most common kinds of string of pearls propagation, because there are many mature branches and the branches are very long. By simply cutting a few string-of-strands, you can produce more than twenty cuttings, and the survival rate is the highest of the three methods of propagation.

Cutting propagation of string-of pearls: first select healthy strands in strings of, then cut off the air roots in the guide. Only such strands will have a higher survival rate if inserted. Then place the branch in a cool place and blow dry the wound.

After the selection of breathable, drainage performance of the number of soil cuttage propagation, pot soil as long as it is not wet water. The place with air root must be close to the soil, then the leaves are exposed outside the soil, cutting the second day can want to spray water mist on the soil, as long as the soil is slightly moist, about 15 days will be able to take root and survive, soon will be able to see the String of-pearls burst bowl!
