- Substrate:
cuttings during the rooting phase are susceptible to decay caused by fungi, therefore the substrate must t be sterile. For proper formation are roots and reduce the risk of infection, the substrate must be well ventilated. The substrate must maintain a level of moisture and good drainage const ant:
-
- In an open place, with an automatic misting system, we must use 100% perlite. There are nurseries that use 20% 80% perlite and peat without problems. This depent good management conditions in the greenhouse for rooting.
- - Indoors or misting is manual, the substrate should hold more water, have to use 50% peat and 50% perlite, sand or vermiculite. One can even use 100% sand.
- - 1 / 9 of peat and 8 / 9 perlite.
- - 2 / 3 yellow sand and 1 / 3 always rbe blonde.
- - 1 / 3 vermiculite and 2 / 3 of p erlite on a layer of sand .

substrate temperatures:
- - The substrate temperature should p have come down below 18 ° C, 20 ° C is optimum.
- Humidity:
For that cuttings do not dry, moisture from the air must be very high (90-100%) and wet the substrate well. In an open place:
- - can reduce the number of leaf cuttings to reduce the transpiration rate.
- - can uti Liser a misting system or use an automatic misting system temperate 05 to 10 seconds of mist every 15 to 20 minutes is sufficient .
- - misting stops for the night.
Indoors:
- - can make by fogging construction emissions cuttings:
- 1 to 2 times per day - 1-2 times a week.
- Temp érature:
To prevent wilting of the cuttings temperature range is between 24 to 27 ° C. during the day. The 15 ° C overnight is accepted.
- cuttings s:
The presence of a timber yard is needed to control and maintain the health of trees. The trees from which cuttings are taken must be aged a minimum of 4 years or early production period. features branches to choose:
- - Twigs from trees free of all diseases and pre-tested for their quality and variety performance.
- - twigs 6 to 12 months 25 to 30 cm.
- - Twigs sufficiently hardened off without being very woody.
- - The branches have a certain succulence.
- - The branches of the outside.
- - The herbaceous shoots that break at 90 ° bends.
- - The fall harvest is better than the spring (178 to 186 days before flowering):
- - strong cambial activity period: early spring and late autumn.
- - twigs taken from trees well watered and well fed
Preparation of cuttings:
- - Disinfect areas and slides.
- - The time period between sampling branches and the establishment of the cuttings must be at least 36 hours.
- - The branches take the cuttings from 10 to 15 cm in length.
- - Cut just below the basal node and 1 cm above the bud.
- - Keep 2 to Four upper leaves on the cuttings.
- Hormone:
AIB liquid:
- - The solution of the AIB should be stored away from light because the infra-red and ultra-violet can alter.
- - Use of hormone concentrations from 4000 to 6000 ppm with soaking time from May to October seconds.
- - Dip cuttings 2-3 cm deep.
AIB powder:
- - Use powder 1% of the AIB
- Placing cuttings:
- - Indoors disinfect the place of planting (grass cuttings) 24 h before transplanting.
- - Treat the cuttings with 3% bleach if the rate of decay after planting is important.
- - Working out of direct sunlight to prevent wilting of the cuttings and degradation of the hormone (AIB)
- Treat the base of the cuttings with alcohol or fungicide.
- - Softwood cuttings should be planted quickly and can be stored semi-hardwood cuttings a few hours in a humid place.
- - Put the cuttings 3-5 cm deep.
- - Put cuttings from 400 to 1000 per sqm depending on the media cuttings (bin, shelf trays, blister).
