Cherenkovaniye – the easiest way of reproduction of various plants, including citrus. The most remarkable in this way the fact that the plant absolutely identical to parental grows from shank. The lemon tree received by means of cherenkovaniye begins to fructify for about 5 years before the fellows who are grown up from seeds. It is also basic reason on which fans of plants make multiple copies lemons in such a way.
- - lemon shank;
- - bank sand;
- - soil for citrus;
- - flowerpot.
1. Prepare bank sand and soil for citrus which can be bought in flower shop. Wash out sand in cold water and then calcinate in oven. It becomes for removal of pollution and death of pathogenic bacteria.
2. Cut shanks from one-year sprouts of the healthy fructifying tree. Shanks, ready to rooting, have to be 10-12 cm long and have 3-4 developed kidneys. Make the lower cut as it is possible closer to kidney at an angle in 90 degrees. Top - at an angle approximately in 45 degrees to escape at distance about 5 mm from the last, upper kidney. Remove completely the lowermost leaf, cut off the others half.
3. Wet shank in korneobrazovaniye stimulator solution, for example, in heteroauxin, for 10-12 hours. Before landing of shank in damp sand powder its lower cut with wood charcoal. It will prevent rotting of shank. Place the prepared shank in damp sand on depth of 1.5-2 cm. Spray with water with temperature several degrees higher room. Close the landed shank glass jar. Thereby you will create certain similarity of the greenhouse. Place capacity with shank in well lit place where direct sunshine do not get. You watch that sand was constantly damp and at least once a day spray shanks with water. In 2-3 weeks the first backs have to appear. To define, the shank has taken root or not, it is possible on young leaflets which appear in case of successful rooting.
4. Carry out "hardening" of plant. For this purpose remove not several hours a day to bank, gradually increasing time. In two weeks of such procedures the bank can remove absolutely. On bottom of pot in which you are going to replace lemon sprout fill haydite or pieces of beaten brick for creation of drainage. Thickness of this layer should not be more than 1/5 heights of pot. Fill small layer of earth, powder it with wood charcoal. Fill pot with soil. Make deepening in which carefully replace the prepared plant. Depth of landing should not exceed that that was when rooting shank. Place pot with sapling in well lit place. You watch that the earth lump did not dry up. The lemon well grows at moderate watering.
