Ngubani ongakaze aye emakethe futhi wazithanda lezi zimbali ezinhle kakhulu? Futhi ngukuthi, ngaphezu kokuhlobisa, kulula kakhulu ukuzinakekela… Futhi nokuhlakulela.
Ngalesi sikhathi ngizokuchazela Ungatshala kanjani ukusikwa kwe-hydrangea, ukuze ukwazi ukwandisa iqoqo lakho ngokushesha futhi, ngaphezu kwakho konke, ngezindleko zero.
Ama-Hydrangeas ayizihlahla ezimila kahle ezikhiqiza kahle kakhulu kusetshenziswa ukusika. Isikhathi esikahle sokusika ngesikhathi sentwasahlobo (ngemuva kweqhwa) kuze kube sekupheleni kwehlobo. Okwakho, kufanele uthathe kuphela igatsha elingaba ngu-15cm kusuka ku-specimen enempilo futhi enamandla; okungcono lokho akubonisi zimpawu zokufuna ukuqhakaza (yize kunjalo, susa iziqu zezimbali, ngoba izitshalo zisebenzisa amandla amaningi ukuzinakekela, futhi singalahlekelwa ukusika ngaphambi kokuba kuphume izimpande).
Uma usunayo, sekuyisikhathi sokulungisa umbhede wembewu. Kunezinhlobo eziningi zezithombo: amaphilisi we-peat, izinkomishi ze-yogurt, iziqukathi zobisi kanye nezimbiza zezimbali. Khetha eyodwa oyithanda kakhulu, bese tshala ukusika kwakho endaweni engaphansi kakhulu, njenge-perlite, noma amabhola obumba axutshwe ne-peat encane. Ukuthola ukukhipha izimpande ngesikhathi esincane, kunconywa kakhulu ukusetshenziswa kwama-hormone okhula ngempande, ongawafafaza ngqo ku-substrate, noma ufake isisindo sokusika ngawo.
Manje, nisela umbhede wembewu bese uwubeka endaweni evikelwe elangeni eliqondile. Ungakhohlwa gcina i-substrate imanzi kancane, kanye nokucola amaqabunga ngezikhathi ezithile. Ngale ndlela, ingozi yokuphelelwa amaqabunga iyancipha kakhulu. Esikhathini samasonto ambalwa uzobona ukuthi iqala kanjani ukukhipha amahlumela amasha, uphawu olungangabazeki lokuthi yonke into ihambe ngokumangalisayo.
Ngabe unesibindi sokwenza ama-hydrangea cuttings akho?
