1、 Breeding mode

The propagation of cactus can be sown directly through seeds. However, this method is not commonly used, because the process from sowing to germination and then to growing into a plant is extremely long, and the germination rate of sowing can not be guaranteed. Therefore, the more common way to plant it is cutting, which is not only easy to survive, but also takes a short time

2、 Specific method

1. Time: it can be carried out in spring, summer and autumn

2. Materials: the stem block with moderate age and tenderness should be selected. It is not conducive to rooting if it is too old or too tender. After selection, it should be separated from the mother plant with a sterilized knife. Then, put it in a well ventilated place to dry. It can be dried in about five days to a week. At this time, it can be observed that its cortex shrinks inward and has a thin film

3. Substrate: the substrate can be sandy soil, but it needs to be disinfected before reuse

4. Cutting: insert the stem block into the sterilized matrix with a depth of about three centimeters. After that, water it to ensure that it is wet, but don't be too wet to cause decay. It will take about twenty days to take root

5. Transplanting: after growing roots, you can transplant and plant. It's best to do it on a sunny day. Prepare flower pots and new substrates, and transplant new plants with roots
