1. Preparation of cuttings: Sunflower is also known as Scutellaria barbata. If you want to cut, select a pot of strong plants, prepare a clean pair of scissors, cut 10-15cm long branches from the mother plant, and then cut into 3-5cm sections with scissors.
2. Soil preparation: The sunflower is really not picky about the soil. Even if the garden soil dug outside can be inserted, you can mix the soil according to the ratio of garden soil: cinder: chicken manure = 5:4:1.
3. Start cuttage: Then water the soil thoroughly, and insert the pruned sunflower cuttings directly into the wet soil.If you want to improve the survival rate of sunflower cuttings, you can put the cuttings in a cool and ventilated place for half an hour.
4. Maintenance after cutting: After the cutting is finished, put it in a place with scattered light and ventilation, then observe the whitening of the soil surface and water it thoroughly. After the plant has a clear growth trend, move it to the full sunlight condition to bask in the sun. Under the condition of sufficient light, the pot will be full in a month.
Whether the sunflower can be cut in winter depends on the temperature and light of maintenance. If the sunflower with perennial roots is placed in a heating room and the light conditions at home are good, then it can be cut.If the indoor temperature is low and the light is poor, wait for the next spring to cut, otherwise the sunflower is difficult to take root, and it is easy to die.
