How to propagate pansy by cuttings

1. Cutting time

Before taking cuttings, you must choose a suitable time for cuttings. March to July each year is the best time because the temperature and humidity are more suitable at this time, which will make it easier for it to survive.

2. Choose cuttings

When choosing cuttings, first select a strong mother plant that has grown for many years, and then cut the branches that grow out from its base, but make sure that the branch has not bloomed, otherwise it will not be easy to take root even if inserted.

3. Choose the medium

It likes to grow in conditions with good drainage and good air permeability, so when choosing soil, sandy soil is best, so that it can grow better.

4. Cutting method

After all the above preparations, you can start the cutting process. First, you can find a chopstick to poke small holes in the soil, and then you can insert the cuttings into them. Next, flatten the soil and water it. Usually it will take about half a month for it to take root, and then you can manage it normally.

5. Maintenance after cutting

After cuttings, ensure sufficient light and appropriate watering. When the seedlings grow three leaves, they can be transplanted. When transplanting, ensure the row spacing between plants. When it grows eight leaves, you can transplant it for the second time. This method can effectively improve its survival rate and even make its flowers more colorful.
