Black mage beheading

For the black mage, beheading can achieve the effect of multiple heads. After cutting off the head, it will grow into new plants, but where should beheading start

The success or failure of beheading depends on the position of the head. It does not necessarily mean to retain a long branch, but its survival rate is high. The actual situation is often the opposite. If the stem remains too long and the plant recovers slowly, the old stem will wither slowly and grow 1 ~ 2 side buds at the top, which is weak and can not achieve the expected effect

The following is a schematic diagram of beheading. Both the red line and the blue line can be beheaded, but relatively speaking, the blue line is safer. If the red line is too close to the head, it may affect the subsequent cutting. But it should not be too long, which is not conducive to the germination of the remaining stems

Cutting method

The cutting time of black master is generally in early spring. Cut off the small rosette, dry it in the shade, dry it in moist soil, put it in the shade for a week, and then maintain it under appropriate light

Cutting is mainly to take root at the base of the stem, and then the root grows slowly. The biggest factor affecting rooting is the lignified stem. Many flower friends are reluctant to prune. The black mage has grown for a long time, and the stem has been lignified. At this time, beheading cutting is not very effective. On the contrary, semi lignified stems are more suitable for cutting, and don't keep too many leaves during cutting
