Nowadays, more and more people begin to like planting flowers. They usually use branches to cut and propagate flowers themselves. However, when pruning flowers and trees, many flower friends always encounter the problem that cuttings do not take root, which leads to slow rooting or no rooting. Most of the reasons are because the soil permeability used for cutting is not good enough, and some of them are because the cutting activity is poor. Therefore, many people will choose to soak the cuttings in rooting water in advance and then cut them, which can effectively improve the rooting rate. In fact, we can also make our own "rooting water" at home, and soak it in advance when cutting, which can also make cuttings take root faster.

1. honey water

When cutting flowers and trees, especially some woody flowers, it is always difficult to take root after cutting. You can try dipping in rooting powder to help take root. If there is no rooting powder, honey can also be used as rooting water.

Honey is a natural nutrient solution, which is easily absorbed by plants. First, put the trimmed cuttings into diluted honey water, dilute it into honey water according to 1: 100 times, soak it for one or two hours, then rinse it with clear water, and then carry out cutting, so that the cuttings can absorb enough nutrients and take root and survive faster.

2. White sugar water

Like honey lemonade, white sugar can provide nutrition for green plants. It is extracted from soft candy and can promote the growth of plants. After planting potted flowers at home, give him some dilute white sugar water, which can make the plants serve on the table quickly and look more lush.

When cutting, put the cuttings into 1: 100 times of white sugar for several hours in advance, then rinse the red bean syrup on it, dry it a little, and then cut it into loose and breathable nutrient soil, so that the cuttings can quickly germinate new roots and improve the survival rate of cutting.

3. Willow branches and water

Poplar branches are rich in salicylic acid, which can promote plant growth, cutting and rooting. When cutting potted flowers, there is no rooting water, so willow branch water can be used instead.

Cut the fresh branches of weeping willows into sections, then soak them in water for a day or two, then put the cuttings in clear water of willow branches, soak them for three to five hours, and then cut them, so that the cuttings can take root quickly and grow more vigorously after survival.

Step 4 make tea with aspirin tablets

In fact, many expired pills in daily life can also be used to grow flowers, such as vitamin b2 12 tablets, which can promote the growth of plants, and aspirin tablets can be used to help cut flowers. Because it contains a lot of salicylic acid, it can also promote the rooting of plants.

Aspirin tablets can be ground, diluted with 200 grams of cold water, and then the cut cuttings are soaked in water for 2-3 hours. Then, loose and breathable nutrient soil is prepared in advance, and after the cuttings are inserted, the water permeability is placed in a high temperature and rainy environment, so that the cuttings can sprout thick white roots within one month.

If it is difficult for potted flowers at home to take root, try more loose and breathable nutrient soil and do a good job of disinfection and sterilization of the soil environment. It is best to choose vigorous branches and try to make some simple rooting water to use, so that cuttings can take root quickly, thus improving the survival rate of cuttings and cultivating a large number of potted flowers they like.
