1. What are the propagation methods?

1. Sowing and propagation: Sowing and propagation are not commonly used in daily life. They are generally used to cultivate new varieties and are sown in autumn. Choose appropriate seeds and do not choose seeds that have been stored for too long, otherwise germination will be affected. Prepare a sand bed, sow the seeds, and cover it with a layer of soil. It does not need to be too thick, about 1 cm of soil. Keep a warm environment and wait until January or February next year for germination.

2. Split-ball propagation: Comparison of split-ball propagation Commonly used, you can choose bulbs with larger bulbs, which can be visually observed. Dig them out in June, then break off the bulbs, try to ensure that the broken bulbs are intact, prepare a suitable substrate, and then cultivate them, paying attention to later maintenance and management. Because hyacinths naturally have a low ball separation rate, they can be stimulated to grow by certain means. In August, during the summer dormancy period, flower buds have already formed. At this time, the large bulbs can be castrated to promote the formation of small bulbs.

2. Is it easy to reproduce?

Master the correct method and create a suitable growing environment. Hyacinths are easier to reproduce. If you don’t want to have trouble in daily life, you can directly purchase seed bulbs for breeding.
