Hydroponic cutting propagation technology of gardenia

1. Container for hydroponics

Prepare the container for hydroponics, wash and disinfect it, and set it aside for later use.

2. Cuttings

Choose August as the time for pruning. Cut two-year-old strong branches that are free of diseases and insect pests. The length should be about 10 cm. Cut into several sections.

3. Soaking cuttings

Arrange the cut branches in a hydroponic container and fill it with tap water or purified water, just plain water. Wait for a few days, and when the water inside becomes turbid, replace it with new water in time, and wait for these branches to sprout small roots.

4. Rooting

After waiting for about days, you will see small white spots on the branches, which proves that small roots have sprouted from the branches. The hydroponics is half successful. With further growth, the root system will be able to grow. After it grows a little longer, you can officially cultivate it.

5. Cultivation

After the roots grow out, you can continue to grow it hydroponically, place it in a transparent glass bottle, regularly change the water inside, and add nutrient solution. You can also plant it in potting soil, place it in a cool place first, and pay attention to the later maintenance after it adapts.
