Can green radish be propagated by cuttings in winter? How much soil should be buried for cuttings?

1. Is it possible to take cuttings in winter?

Since the green ivy has extremely strong growth ability, it can be propagated by cuttings even in winter. However, when taking cuttings, you should pay attention to temperature regulation. It is best to adjust the temperature in the cutting environment to around 20°C, so that the cuttings will be easier to survive after taking cuttings. If the temperature is normal in winter, it is basically difficult for cuttings to survive.

2. Suitable season for cuttings

If you want to propagate green ivy by cuttings, the season requirements are actually not very high. Late spring, early summer or winter are more suitable. The temperature during these two time periods is suitable, and the natural temperature can usually reach around 20°C, neither too high nor too low. At this time, the chance of survival will be higher. If you want to take cuttings in summer, you should pay special attention to the temperature and provide shade and ventilation, otherwise the cuttings will easily rot.

3. Cutting Depth

When taking cuttings, you don’t actually need to bury it with too much soil. The purpose of burying it with soil is to allow it to combine with the soil, and it can also play a good fixing role. When grafting, put the cuttings into the soil to about half the depth and cover them with soil. However, it should be noted that the soil must be clean and as loose and breathable as possible.
