Planting flowers from potatoes, surely you do not believe. Normally, referring to potatoes, surely people will think of fried and fried dishes. But besides being a food source for human potatoes there are many other uses, one of which is growing roses.
Indeed, potatoes have a sufficient amount of nutrients and moisture to grow roses. If you have a super rare rose, or simply a rose donated by a "loved person" and want to duplicate some flowers, you can use cuttings techniques with potatoes. This is a very easy thing to do, even if people who don't know anything about cultivation can do it by following these steps:
Step 1: Cut a piece of rose branches about 20cm long with a beveled angle of 45 degrees . Take care to clean the cutting pliers before cutting. If you do not want to use immediately cut branches, you must leave branches in a plastic bag containing ice.
Step 2: Cut the decayed rose or wilted leaves (if any) on that branch segment.
Step 3: Pour the soil into the flower pot. Loosen the soil gently.
Step 4: Use a top-screwed screwdriver to poke a hole in the potato. This hole must have a section equivalent to a rose section.
Step 5: Spot a few root growth stimulants. Get rid of the excess medication sticking on the branch. Plug the rose into the potato.
Step 6: Use a spoon to dig a small hole in the pot to place the potato.
Step 7: Put the potatoes in the potted plant, leaving only the rose.
Step 8: Cut a plastic bottle onto a rose to create a small "greenhouse". While turning, gently press the plastic bottle to the ground to make sure it stands firm.
Step 9: Place pots of plants in the yard in a cool, dry place, avoid direct sunlight. Every day you take a few minutes to lift the jar out of the rose so that the branch will breathe. Remember to maintain soil moisture.
Step 10: After a while, try using your hand to gently pull the base of the branch, if it feels a bit heavy, it means the roots have sprouted.
Step 11: Now you can put the plastic bottle away. Place a flower pot where there is a lot of light so that the flower buds can grow before you switch to the "tempering" stage for the plant. For Americans, this stage is called "Hardern off", which makes the tree strong. Continue to maintain soil moisture.
Step 12: At the "training" stage for plants, you take the potted plants out for several hours a day. Place in a place with light but avoid direct sunlight to help the tree get used to outside weather conditions. Still maintaining soil moisture.
Step 13: After a week of "training", now is the time to be able to plant in the garden and enjoy the sweet buds that bloom gradually .
Note : You can grow this rose in the garden if you do not want to limit their living space in ornamental pots.
