Breeding method 1: sowing

We usually sow carnation in September. The soil with fertile soil, good drainage and calcareous or sandy soil is very suitable for sowing carnation. After sowing, it is necessary to maintain a certain degree of moisture in the soil. Buds can be produced in 5 days after sowing, and seedlings can be produced in about 10 days. The maximum temperature of 20 ℃ and the minimum temperature of 10 ℃ need to be maintained during the seedling stage. It can be transplanted when the new seedlings of carnation grow 4 to 5 leaves. Under the condition of careful care, it can bloom in the next spring. It can also be sown directly outdoors in September or in pots from November to December, and transplanted to the outdoor open space in April of the next year

Propagation method 2: cutting

The cutting propagation of carnation in Jintuan is mostly from October to march of the next year. At its maturity, choose to cut the twigs with a length of 5 to 6 cm as cuttings. The twigs should choose strong and disease-free branches. Insert half of the twigs into the sand, water them immediately and pay attention to heat preservation. During this period, it is necessary to keep the carnation in brocade regiment from receiving sufficient sunlight, but do not expose it to the sun. In order to prevent diseases and pests, it is also necessary to spray fungicides, Chlorothalonil. Cuttings can take root in 15 to 20 days, and then transplant them into a courtyard or flower pot

Breeding method 3: ramet

In autumn or early spring, we use the old plants of carnation in Jintuan for ramet propagation. Take early spring branching as an example. Before the plant sprouts, dig up the whole carnation, divide it into several plants and plant them separately. Dig planting holes, one for each hole, and then cover and compact with fine soil. Don't forget to water. In summer, there is too much rain and carnation is in the growth period. Strengthen fertilization and drainage management, otherwise it will cause root rot. It needs to be watered in time after the beginning of autumn, so as to sprout leaves and bloom beautifully on the occasion of national day
