1.Choose cuttings: Choose healthy rose shoots, preferably new branches of the current year, about 15-20 cm in length. The shoots should have 3-4 full bud eyes.
2.Prepare the substrate: Choose a substrate with good air permeability and good drainage, such as perlite, vermiculite, etc. Place the substrate in the pot, water thoroughly and set aside.
3.Treatment of cuttings: cut into a bevel at the lower end of the cuttings to increase the water absorption area. Cut off the excess leaves, leaving only the upper 2-3 leaves. You can spray some rooting agent on the leaves to promote rooting.
4.Insert the substrate: Insert the treated cuttings into the substrate to a depth of about half the length of the cuttings. Be careful not to insert cuttings too deep or too shallow.
5.Watering and moisturizing: Place the planted pots in a well-ventilated, sunny area. Spray water 1-2 times a day onto the surface of the substrate to keep it moist. Avoid watering directly on the leaves to avoid causing disease.
6.Shade maintenance: The newly inserted rose branches are relatively tender and need to be protected from direct sunlight. It can be shielded with a shade net or plastic film to maintain proper lighting.
7.Observe the growth: Pay close attention to the growth of roses after cuttings. After about 2-3 weeks, white roots will grow at the base of the cuttings. At this point, you can gradually reduce the shade and increase the light.
8.Fertilization management: When the roses grow new leaves, some diluted liquid fertilizer can be applied appropriately to promote plant growth. Be careful not to over-fertilize so as not to burn the root system.
9.Pest control: Roses are susceptible to pests such as aphids and spider mites. When pests and diseases are found, measures should be taken in time to prevent and control them, such as spraying insecticides and cutting off the damaged parts.
1.Choose healthy cuttings: Choose vigorous and pest-free rose shoots as cuttings to reduce the occurrence of yellow leaves.
2.Prune the leaves properly: Prune the leaves properly before cuttings, keeping the upper 2-3 leaves to reduce water evaporation and nutrient consumption.
3.Keep the substrate moist: To keep the substrate moist in the early stages after cuttings, spray water 1-2 times a day on the surface of the substrate to maintain proper humidity. But avoid overwatering so as not to cause lack of oxygen to the roots and root rot.
4.Shade maintenance: The newly inserted rose branches are relatively tender and need to be protected from direct sunlight. It can be shielded with a shade net or plastic film to maintain proper lighting. As the plant grows, gradually increase the amount of light time.
5.Reasonable fertilization: In the early stage after cuttings, some diluted liquid fertilizer can be appropriately applied to promote plant growth. But be careful not to over-fertilize so as not to burn the root system. As the plant grows, gradually increase the amount and frequency of fertilization.
6.Pest control: Timely detection and control of pests and diseases can reduce the occurrence of yellow leaves. Biological control methods such as the release of natural enemy insects such as ladybugs can be used;Chemical control methods such as spraying insecticides, fungicides, etc. can also be used.
7.Proper pruning of yellow leaves: In the process of plant growth, if yellow leaves are found, the yellow leaves can be properly pruned to reduce the burden on the plant and promote the growth of new leaves.
Through the above methods, the phenomenon of yellow leaves after rose cuttings can be effectively avoided, and the survival rate of cuttings and the growth quality of plants can be improved.
