The medium must be prepared first, then insert the branches into it and spray water to promote rooting.

1. Time selection

1. Time selection

Cutting is a method of reproduction. Time selection is very important and is the prerequisite for reproduction and growth. It is best to do it in summer and autumn, when the air humidity is higher, which is more suitable for healing and growth between the two. It is best not to choose in winter, even in a warm indoor environment, there will still be problems with healing and growth.

2. Cuttings

Cut a thick and strong branch from the ash wood, about 10-15 cm in length. A few leaves should be retained on the top to facilitate the synthesis of nutrients, and the lower leaves need to be cut off. After cutting it, you cannot cut it immediately. You need to put it aside to dry the bottom for a while, and then wait for the wound to dry before proceeding.

3. Prepare the medium

The medium is mainly breathable and should not be too heavy. It is necessary to ensure good breathability and drainage to prevent moisture from accumulating at the roots and causing rot. Expose it to the sun for a period of time before use to ensure disinfection and sterilization.

4. Make cuttings

After the medium is prepared, insert the cut cuttings into it, and then spray water to moisturize to promote rooting. Roots will grow in about 2-3 weeks, and planting can be done after the root growth is stable.
