The seeds of Ji pineapple need to be artificially pollinated. They should be sown in the flowerpot from late April to mid May, keeping the ambient temperature at 25 ℃ and germinating within two weeks.
The disadvantage of this method is that the growth of seeded seedlings is too slow, and the plants can be grown in about three years.
Cut off the leaf shaft beside the mother plant, pay attention to cutting off from the base, and keep the three leaflets at the first, then insert the leaf shaft into the prepared sand bed, maintain it at 30 ℃ and in a cool environment, and maintain a high humidity at the same time.
This method can take root in about 3 weeks, and divide seedlings in 7 weeks. The propagation speed is faster.
It is a common method nowadays. It is best to thaw the soil in early spring (February and March), take out the mother plant from the flowerpot, cut the root, and then plant.
Branch propagation is especially suitable for herbaceous flowers with cluster characteristics. The advantage of this method lies in the high survival rate.
