How to propagate wolfberry and what to pay attention to

Lycium barbarum propagation method

There are three ways to propagate wolfberry, namely, seed propagation, cutting propagation and division propagation. The survival rate of these three propagation methods is relatively high, but the speed of seed propagation is relatively slow.

For wolfberry, when planting, there needs to be a suitable growth environment and temperature, and then use cuttings for propagation, so that it grows fastest.

Lycium barbarum seed propagation

Wolfberry seeds can be propagated, but they need to be germinated before sowing, which is usually done from June to November each year.

The natural reproduction method of wolfberry is sowing. The seeds need to be harvested when the fruit is ripe and then germinated.

Lycium barbarum breeding time

Wolfberry is generally planted in spring and autumn every year, but comparatively speaking, it is planted more in spring and has the highest survival rate because the temperature and climate in spring are most suitable for planting.

Wolfberry breeding method

Lycium barbarum division propagation

Wolfberry has a strong germination ability, and many root sprouts will sprout around the root zone. It is necessary to dig out the seedlings with roots in autumn and winter, cut them off from the mother plant, and transplant them.

Lycium barbarum cutting propagation

When propagating wolfberry by cuttings, it is usually done in mid-spring. Suitable and sturdy branches are needed as cuttings, which will be more beneficial for its future growth. After the cuttings are successful, the soil needs to be kept moist.

Lycium barbarum sowing propagation

When sowing and propagating wolfberry, you need to use seeds free of pests and diseases, and they need to be germinated before sowing, which is more conducive to future germination.

Precautions for wolfberry breeding

When propagating wolfberry, you need to pay attention to the following: when planting, you need to use loose, fertile soil with a deep soil layer. In addition, you need to replenish water in time during its growth period, and loosen the soil after watering. You also need sufficient sunlight during maintenance.
