2. Reproduction method

Peach blossom propagation is mainly based on grafting. Grafting is divided into bud grafting and branch grafting. Bud grafting is carried out in July-August. Cut a section of bark with axillary buds, cut it into a shield shape and insert it into the rootstock. Branch grafting is carried out in March. Cut the bottom of the branch into a bevel and insert it. Rootstock. In addition to grafting, it can be propagated by seeds and cuttings. Sowing takes place between June and August, and the seeds need to be soaked to induce germination before sowing. Cuttings are taken in spring or the rainy season. Cut the cuttings and insert them into the soil to wait for rooting.

1. What to focus on

There are three methods of propagating peach blossoms, namely sowing propagation, cutting propagation and grafting propagation. Each of the three methods has its own advantages and disadvantages, but grafting is usually the main method. Grafting can retain the characteristics of the original plant and has a shorter growth cycle. Compared with sowing and cutting, it can develop to flowering and fruiting faster. Sowing seeds and cuttings are usually suitable for large-scale propagation, and it takes a long time to wait for flowering and fruiting.

2. Reproduction methods

1 . Sowing: The fruiting period of peach blossoms is generally from June to August. At this time, the fruits are picked and the seeds are retained after removing the pulp. The sowing time is generally in spring or autumn. The seedling emergence rate of autumn sowing is high and the growth is also very rapid. Soak the seeds for 5-7 days before sowing to promote germination. Prepare the seedbed and bury the seeds in it.

2. Cuttings: Peach blossom cuttings are divided into hard branch cuttings and Soft branch cuttings and hard branch cuttings are mostly carried out in spring. Cut 20 cm long cuttings and soak the bottom with carbendazim and indolebutyric acid to prevent germs and promote rooting. Soft branch cuttings are carried out during the rainy season, and about two-thirds of the branches are inserted.

3. Grafting: Mountain peaches are often used for peach blossom grafting, and branch grafting and bud grafting are common. Branch grafting needs to be carried out in March. After cutting the branches, cut the bottom into a bevel and insert it into the incision of the rootstock. Bud grafting is usually carried out from July to August. The full axillary buds are cut off along with the bark, cut into a shield shape, and inserted into the T-shaped incision of the rootstock.
