Cut a pothos stem into 8 segments, and a big pot will sprout in no time!

Pothos is a plant almost every household grows, not to mention that high summer temperatures are exactly when pothos shoots up. Cut a stem now, and it can immediately be rooted as a cutting!

Steps:

1. Using a sterilized knife, cut a vigorously growing stem from the mother pothos plant, then use the knife to cut the stem into small segments. Make sure each small segment keeps one node with aerial roots.

2. Prepare perlite, coconut coir, or loose, breathable soil as the potting mix for the cuttings. At the same time, place the pothos stem cuttings in a well-ventilated spot to let the wounds dry.

3. If you want the pothos cuttings to fill the pot as quickly as possible, lay the pothos stems horizontally on the soil, water once thoroughly, place them in a bright, indirectly lit, well-ventilated spot, and mist the surface of the pot with a spray bottle to keep humidity high enough.

4. If you want the pothos cuttings to climb quickly and become a curtain, insert the pothos vertically into the potting soil so the aerial roots are buried in the soil, then water once thoroughly and likewise place it in a cool, ventilated spot.

5. It takes only about 10 days for the pothos cuttings to root! After rooting, small green leaves will also sprout.

6. Summer weather is hot, so you can mist the pothos leaves and around the pot. You can also mix a little compound fertilizer or foliar fertilizer into the water, which will make the new pothos leaves even more glossy!

Cut jasmine stems into 8 segments, and big white roots sprout in 10 days!

Right now is the peak blooming time for jasmine, and some flower lovers' jasmine has already finished blooming. For those stems that have finished flowering, we can absolutely cut them off and use them for cuttings, and then we can harvest even more pots of jasmine!

How to do it?

1. For the cuttings, it is best to choose semi-lignified stems, because semi-lignified jasmine stems contain more nutrients and have a somewhat higher rooting and survival rate. Using a sterilized knife, cut the jasmine stems into short small segments, making sure each small segment keeps 1-2 leaves.

2. Prepare the soil needed for cuttings; generally, a loose, breathable potting mix is fine. Today Huahua chose perlite. Use chopsticks to poke a few small holes in the perlite in the pot so the jasmine stems can be inserted.

3. Insert the trimmed jasmine stems into the perlite, press down slightly, then water once thoroughly, and place them in a spot with plenty of bright, indirect light and very good ventilation for care.

4. Summer temperatures are high, so it takes only about 2 weeks to root!

5. After rooting, the jasmine stems can be directly transplanted into a pot to continue growing. First place them in a ventilated spot to acclimate for 1-2 weeks, then move them outdoors or to a south-facing balcony with direct sun, and water 1-2 times a day, and the jasmine will grow more and more vigorously!

Cut kalanchoe stems into 8 segments, and they immediately become 10 pots!

In summer, kalanchoe often develops black rot, and if you are not careful it may die. To avoid losing all your kalanchoe at home, we can cut stems and use them to propagate small plants, just in case!

How to do it?

1. Take the trimmed kalanchoe stems and trim them a few more times with sterilized scissors, keeping at least 2 pairs of leaves on each stem, then let the wounds dry in a well-ventilated spot. You can also soak them in a carbendazim solution for 2 hours to disinfect.

2. Prepare loose, breathable potting mix, or you can use pure sand for cuttings, which also roots fairly quickly. Use a wooden stick to make a hole in the sand, then insert the kalanchoe stem with the dried wound.

3. Insert all the kalanchoe stems into the pot, water once thoroughly, then place in a spot indoors with good bright, indirect light, and be sure to ventilate often. Remember to mist the leaves and the soil surface regularly to keep them moist.

4. It takes only about 1 week for the kalanchoe cuttings to sprout roots! After that, transplant the kalanchoe into a pot, making sure it receives 4 hours of direct light each day, and it will soon grow into a big, lush green pot!

Cut hydrangea stems into 8 segments, and next year they will bloom into big balls!

2. Prepare the soil needed for cuttings. Summer temperatures are high, so you can use vermiculite or akadama soil for cuttings. Prepare a disposable paper cup, poke 3-5 small holes in the bottom, put vermiculite in the disposable paper cup, then insert the hydrangea stems to be rooted into the cup.

3. To ensure the moisture needed for cuttings, place a tray under the disposable paper cup, add water to the tray, set the disposable paper cup in the tray, and finally place it in a cool, ventilated spot. Absolutely do not expose it to direct sun.
