How to propagate Sedum and what to pay attention to

How to propagate Sedum

There are three main ways to propagate Sedum: sowing, division and cuttings. Its seeds can also be propagated, and its natural reproduction method is also seed propagation. Generally speaking, Sedum is propagated fastest by cuttings.

The breeding time of Sedum

Sedum is generally propagated by cuttings, which can be carried out all year round, but it is more suitable from mid-May to early September. The climate during this period is relatively suitable, and the survival rate of cuttings is high.

How to propagate Sedum

Propagation of Sedum sedum by division

Cut the stems and leaves of Sedum into small pieces, about 6 cm in length, and then scatter them directly on the ground. It is best to leave the stem nodes half buried in the soil. Then you can spray it with water. Generally, spraying it twice will be enough. Make sure the soil is moist. Generally, it will take root in about a week.

Propagation of Sedum sedum by cuttings

Cut branches from well-growing Sedum into pieces about 10 cm long, leaving the leaves on the top. You can use a mixture of ordinary culture soil and sand as the medium for cuttings, expose it to the sun for disinfection, and insert the branches into the soil at a depth of about 3-4 cm. After cutting, water it sufficiently and it will take root after a period of time.

Seed propagation of Sedum

When propagating Sedum by sowing, the distance between the seeds is generally about 1 cm, and then cover it with a thin layer of soil, and then spray water for irrigation. Keep the soil relatively moist, and it will start to take root in about a week.

Precautions for the propagation of Sedum

After the propagation of Sedum, you must pay attention to keeping the soil moist. Irrigate or spray water about once every 2 to 3 days. After about 2 to 3 days, the plant will be able to grow normally, and then you can carry out daily management.
