First of all, let's popularize science. "Decapitation" is actually "top bud picking" in crop production, which is called "top advantage" in botany. In the process of plant growth and development, there is a close relationship between terminal bud and lateral bud. When the terminal bud grows vigorously, it will inhibit the growth of lateral buds. If the terminal buds stop growing for some reason, some lateral buds will grow rapidly. The phenomenon of the top bud preferentially growing and inhibiting the development of lateral buds is called "top dominance". Therefore, when the top bud is knocked out, many lateral buds will emerge naturally. This is also the fastest way to solve the problem of succulent plants growing in vain and making one plant become many.
Let's take a look at the sketch map drawn by Xiaobian: .
Select the position where you want to cut and cut.
Remove 2 to 4 leaves from the base of the cut head to facilitate the cut head to root in the soil, and leave the base of the cut head in the original basin. After trimming, put it in the ventilated position to air the roots.
Insert the healed head into the new soil, and the head will restore its compact beauty. The broken leaves are used for leaf cutting, and each leaf breeds a new life. The old root after beheading will send out many lateral branches and form a long head because of the removal of the top advantage.
Because the meat of Xiaobian's family is very beautiful and has not yet grown in vain, so there is no physical step map. Choose this beheading step map. Students who don't understand the above sketch can look at the physical map again:
Removal of the lower leaves of the cuttings can effectively reduce the rate of wound decay.
Cut down the fleshy, wound do not touch anything, waiting for his wound to heal.
Cut off the head and put it in the glassware to take root. Too large a container may cause the lower end of the long paper strip to curl. Without water, the humidity of the air in the container is enough.
Look, after beheading, you can not only make a face for the ugly meat of the emperor, but also get more meat. You can get more meat at one stroke!
