Four basic methods for the fastest rooting of Clivia

1. Water soaking method

The water soaking method is a very simple method with a relatively high survival rate. First, place the plant's seedling in a cool location and leave it for about ten days. Then the excess pseudobulbs can be removed and put into water to soak for two to three days.

Then use sugar water at a concentration of 2% to 5% to soak the lower part of the plant's seedling, about 1 cm or so. After a whole day, take it out and wash it clean. Finally, carry out cuttings, and the root system will grow.

2. Medicine soaking method

The medicine soaking method is similar to the water soaking method, with the biggest difference being the use of medicine. For the medicine soaking method, vitamin B12 solvent can be chosen, and enough water added to dilute it. To speed up rooting, put the lower part of the stem in for five minutes and then take it out.

In addition, potassium permanganate solution can also be used at a concentration of 0.2% to 0.5%. It can be soaked for a whole day, which not only helps rooting but also prevents rot.

3. Air-drying method

First, the seedling stem can be cut off and placed in a ventilated location, waiting for about 5-6 hours. Its cut surface will almost be dry, and then water culture can be carried out. The air-drying method has fast rooting speed and a relatively high survival rate.

4. Temperature increasing method

The temperature increasing method mainly raises the temperature. Taking water-cultured Clivia as an example, when the temperature is higher than 35°C, roots are very likely to grow. This application is used in some specialized cultivation places, where hotbeds are used for cultivation. If your home also has such conditions, you might as well give it a try.
