Before grafting, according to the actual needs, timely root shaping. Small potted plants are usually planted for 8~ 10 months, and the roots are lifted properly; Medium-sized potted plants take root around 65438+February; Large potted flowers should be planted for 2~3 years, and then the roots should be lifted after the roots are formed.
transplant
Grafting time is around Qingming or when autumn buds germinate. Rootstock and scion should choose the branches of the current year, but the scion should be relatively mature. Cut off the top of the rootstock with a high-temperature sterilized blade, then cut a hole of about 1cm vertically downward along the axis, cut the upper and lower ends of the scion into a V shape, and insert the rootstock. Wrap the joint with plastic film and spray water.
Maintenance/curing
After grafting, put the plant in a ventilated and bright place to avoid strong light. Uncover the membrane once a day to breathe, but don't touch the interface directly. It will be loose in about 45 days. Pay attention to adding water after germination, so as to prevent the sprouts from drying up due to lack of water.
After grafting
picking leaves
When the grafted plants grow into chicken feet-shaped branches, all the leaves should be removed, and 2~3 tendons should be left on each branch, so that all branches can grow new leaves and make the tree fuller.
Wipe the bud
After the new buds grow, the leaves should be cut into pieces. For dense and irregular buds, erase a part to avoid excessive growth of branches and leaves and compete for nutrients. At the same time, it also promotes growth by fitting the placement direction and position.
