1. Select branches

In order to improve the survival rate of water culture of cutting branches of fortune tree, we need to choose older, well-growing and robust branches. You can cut a branch with a length of about 30 cm and cut off the leaves at the bottom, leaving only two to four leaves at the top. Then cut the cutting edge obliquely into a ladder shape, which can increase the contact area between the cuttings and water, which is conducive to rooting

2. Cutting preparation

In order to promote the rooting of cuttings, you can apply some rooting powder on the incision and dry it in a ventilated place. Then add an appropriate amount of water into the hydroponic container to reach about one-third of the depth of the container, not too much. Then put the cuttings directly into the container. Be careful not to let the blades of the cuttings touch water, otherwise the leaves will rot

3. Hydroponic maintenance

Before the cuttings take root, the water can be changed every three days. After rooting, you don't need to change the water often, just add water to the container. When the temperature is relatively high, water can be sprayed on the leaf surface. Water can be natural rainwater, well water, purified water, etc. if tap water is used, it can only be used after being placed one day in advance

In addition, pay attention to controlling the temperature to keep it between 16 and 26 degrees. In terms of light, it can be placed in a bright and well ventilated environment, as long as there are two or three hours of light every day. Hydroponic rich trees do not have high requirements for light

In addition, its demand for nutrients cannot be ignored. You can add a few drops of dissolved vitamin C1 or nutrient solution to the water every month
