After finishing the chili peppers, Yunxi also began to fiddle with her flowers.

First brush off the grass clippings on the surface, then remove the planks, dig up the sand with a shovel, and take out the moon season and plum branches that were stored in the sand last year.

After a long winter, Yunxi is really afraid that the branches will have turned a lot blackened, as long as the branches are blackened, then don't expect it, there must be no cure for the infection. The results are not bad, there is no rot and blackening, and they all maintain their normal color. The base of the cuttings also has some white tumors more or less, which is the callus of the moon season, this phenomenon is a precursor to rooting, and the possibility of life on cuttings is very high.

It seems that this method is reliable, there is so much snow in winter, more than ten degrees below zero, these branches are not at all, not only are they fine, but they also quietly begin to grow roots.

At the same time, there are also sand hidden moon seeds, which look like there is no change, and they should be able to be planted.

In her previous life, she would definitely not want to plant Yueji seeds, putting aside the success rate of Yueji seed seedlings. From the perspective of reproduction alone, the moon season is not suitable for propagation with seeds at all, because the moon season seeds will return to their ancestors. When the seeds are planted, most of the seedlings that sprout and grow will have white flowers and red flowers, which are no different from the wild roses in the mountains. Only a very small number of seedlings bloom like the moon season, but this very small number of seedlings is one of the sources of new varieties of the moon season.

Therefore, in ancient times when it was impossible to buy good ones, Yunxi had to rely on himself, hoping that the seeds would mutate by chance. But you can find colchicine in the future, colchicine is a common one in plant breeding, but she doesn't know how to refine it, but she is not in a hurry, and when she finds it, she will not find a way.

The cuttings are removed from the sand bed and inserted into a pre-prepared seedbed with a 2:3 mixture of sand and soil. Originally, the medium should have been mixed with 1:2 sand and peat, but now Yunxi can't find peat, but fortunately, the garden soil is also very loose and breathable. For the sake of insurance, Yunxi still increased the proportion of river sand.

Originally, the best time for cuttings should be around the vernal equinox, when the yang energy is first born and full of vitality, which is a good time for plants to take root and sprout. It's a pity that after cuttings, she needs to be covered with a thermal and moisturizing plastic film, and she didn't want to find it. Without plastic film, there is no way to ensure a suitable temperature range, just do not maintain the temperature of 25C to take root.

Therefore, Yunxi pushed the cutting time again and again, from the spring equinox to Guyu. Although the temperature is ready for rooting, it is also time for bud germination. If the rooting speed can't keep up with the speed of germination and leaf growth, I'm afraid it will be a waste of joy.

This is similar to the usual "fake work", but the good thing is that there is a lot of hope because there are obvious root nodules.

After the cuttings were completed, Yunxi used the ancient method to disinfect the herbal water as usual, but it didn't work, but it was also a comfort. For the sake of insurance, Yunxi deliberately explained that Yuanyuan must use boiled cold water for watering and spraying water in the future to ensure that it is clean and clean.

Once again, I miss the era of rooting powder and carbendazim, which are essential artifacts for cuttings and transplanting.

But think about it, the ancient flower farmers should have had a local method to deal with it, right? No, you still have to find a local style in the future, which should also be unique. Moreover, everything she has learned and known is from books on the Internet, whether it is good or not, and whether it is practical or not is between the two, she dare not be naïve to think that she can grow good flowers if she understands them. In the previous life, when there was no shortage of fertilizers, materials, and medicines, the cultivation was not satisfactory, and it was by no means a master.

Compared with the moon season, the plum branches can take root to make Yunxi more happy. Wax plum can be much more difficult than the moon season, wax plum propagation to grafting, dividing, supplemented by cuttings. As for the sowing method, like the moon seeds, it is not easy to maintain the original excellent characteristics of the flowers, so it is only used when it is necessary to cultivate a large number of rootstocks.

The most commonly used method is the grafting method. Grafting method, to be honest, Yunxi only has theory, no practice, and I really don't know if I can take over the work. This is also a skilled job, right? Yunxi said that he had no bottom in his heart!

Fortunately, the branches of Shazang are not bad, and if they can survive, they will not be grafted. Those who have bought grafted seedlings should know that it has a big drawback, and the buds of the grafted point cannot be left. And for the clumps of plums, it is obviously more troublesome, and the cuttings do not have to worry at all, the more bamboo shoots, the better, the comers do not refuse, and the future branches will depend on them!

After cutting the branches, Yunxi looked at the place where the peony seeds were sown on the side, and there was no movement. Could it be that the harvest is too late and will not sprout? Their mothers have bloomed, why haven't they sprouted yet?

Do you want to dig it up? Want? No? Want? Well, let's take a look!

Yunxi, who couldn't hold back his temperament, found a marginal area and began to dig the soil with heart. Dig it, it's nothing, dig two times or three times, it's still nothing, dig hard, there's something.

It's broken

White roots.

If the person is right, he will not die if he does not die. Curiosity kills people!

The depressed Yunxi had no choice but to throw the broken root back and sweep the soil flat, just treat this seed as if it was broken. However, its sacrifice was not all meaningless, at least it proved that the seed would sprout, which made Yunxi happy.

After being depressed, Yunxi took a group of followers, namely Yunkai and Fu Junzhuo, and returned to their house together. Began to teach them the "paper towel germination method." ”

No paper towel, cloth towel instead. Soak in water, put it on a plate, and scatter the seeds on a cut cloth towel, leaving a certain interval between the seeds to facilitate the removal of the seeds when germinating. Cover with a cloth towel and let the seeds be covered by the clothcloth.

Then, pour in clean, cool water (it must be cool, bacteria are everywhere) and use a cloth towel to absorb enough water.

Finally, place the plate in a bright place, which is naturally preferred by the window, perfectly diffused light.

"That's it!" Yunxi clapped his hands and announced that it was done.

"Second sister, the method you learned, and this cloth, can't it be cut secretly?" Yun Kai said, "It's weird, okay?" ”

Yunxi smiled: "That's still useful, just a few of your henna, purple jasmine, such a big seed, there is no reason to fail!" ”

Yun Kai said: "Okay, then I'll go back and try." ”

What is this called? Dare to question the wisdom of the majority of netizens, is this good that has been tested by countless people? As thin as petunias, difficult to produce as clematis, the method that can germinate must be a good way!

"Fu Junzhuo, do you want to plant, if you want to plant, I will share a little place for you." Yunxi said with a smile, although he is not his own family, but he comes every day, so let's win it over and play together.

Fu Junzhuo didn't even think about it, so he agreed directly. Then he scratched his head and said, "But I don't have flower seeds, can I grow melons?" ”

"Okay, why not?" Yunxi replied, "But you have to plant the side of the wall, and let them climb the wall when the time comes, so that they don't take up too much space." ”

Although I have never seen a melon climbing the wall, Yunxi Xing is sure that it will work, and the follower Fu Junzhuo happily agreed.
