Many of us remember when mentioning ficus elastica is that decorate our homes in the Soviet times. But lately, a huge popular Ficus benjamina - large and spreading shrub is not the most demanding of care. Naturally, fans of this type of question arises: how to propagate Ficus?

Ficus Benjamin reproduces the following ways:

  • cuttings;
  • cloning;
  • seeds.

Vegetative reproduction of Ficus

Propagation by cuttings can be applied to the vast majority of figs, and not only to the variety. Primarily harvested cuttings. To do this, you need a sharp knife to cut the apical already poluoderevenevshie branches up to 15 cm. The cut is made diagonally. You can not harvest the cuttings with scissors or blunt objects - they crush tissues shoots and substantially inhibit the establishment.

Large leaves with the cuttings removed to prevent excessive evaporation of moisture, and an average of three leaves are left on the stalk. Milky juice on a cut eye-catching, quickly hardens and does not develop the root system. Therefore, you need to get rid of him as soon as the cuttings are procured: you can either wash the juice running water until he stops to speak, or to put the cutting into a jar with clean water and change it every two hours. After the juice stops to stand out, the cut must be dry in the open air a couple of hours.

The warm water ficus root fairly quickly. To prevent decay processes, add the water a tablet of activated charcoal and make sure the lower leaves do not touch the water. Capacity, where the cuttings for rooting, must be sufficiently lit area, but not in direct sunlight. As the evaporation of the water topped up.

Cuttings require high humidity and heat, and such conditions are much easier to create a mini-teplichke. About a couple of weeks can appear bright build-up, so-called kalusnaya fabric from which later formed the roots. Once the handle appeared roots, it can be planted in a conventional substrate.

The method of reproduction by cuttings of Ficus Benjamin in the substrate

The blank cuttings produced in the same manner as in the previous process, and is required to wash latex. After the slice dry, it is filled with powdered charcoal and immersed in the ground on one kidney. To create the necessary conditions for young Ficus benjamina top cover banks or placed in a mini-teplichku polyethylene.

The land must always be moist but not waterlogged. Periodically, cuttings need to be aired - this will help avoid rotting. It is better that the earth was warm and can be used to heat the hot water bottle or a warm battery. Understand that took root ficus, can be on the emergence of new leaves.

The ground bury most of the sheet cutting; make sure that the petiole remains on the surface. Himself leaf must be rolled into a tube and secure with a rubber band. You can set a peg formed through a straw - so cutting will be more stable. Teplichku is pushed in the required number of cuttings and closed polyethylene. It requires heating of the soil and regular airing cuttings. About a month later, they take root and leaves of the new release.

To rooting passed faster recommend the lower cut ficus make a pair of incisions (depending on the thickness of the barrel, the notches may be more). You can spend longitudinal crack a few inches from the lower edge. The more the wound surface, the more kalusnaya formed tissue and, consequently, faster new roots appear.

What would you choose: rooting in water or in the ground - it is desirable to treat the lower part of the cuttings root stimulator special. Alternatively, you can pre-soaked in a solution of cutting stimulator, or in the water, where it will be cutting, add a few drops kornevina.
