Propagation method of yew

Yew can propagate by sowing, but this propagation method is relatively slow, and the growth cycle of yew will become very long. Therefore, when breeding Taxus chinensis, in order to quickly cultivate a Taxus chinensis, we often choose the cutting method to reproduce Taxus chinensis

Cutting propagation method of Taxus chinensis

We usually choose to carry out cutting propagation of yew from May to June of the year. First, we should select a 1-4-year-old yew, cut a section of about 10 cm wooden seedling branch, remove about three-thirds of the leaves at the lower end, and soak the cut end of the branch in the solution prepared with rooting powder for about three to twelve hours. We should select sandy soil, perlite and other rough soil as cutting soil for the cultivation of Taxus chinensis, plant the treated cutting branches of Taxus chinensis into the cutting soil, and then cover them with plastic cloth and other things. Pay attention not to irradiate with strong light, spray water twice or three times a day, and after a month, it can be reduced to watering once a day. The soil temperature should be kept at 20 ~ 30 ° C, Generally, it will take 30 to 40 days to take root. At this time, we can apply a little fertilizer to promote the growth of yew seedlings. After the seedlings take root, they can be transplanted into ordinary soil for planting
