Beech multiply themselves via seeds
Book multiply yourself - tips for propagation
To multiply a book by yourself requires a lot of patience and some specialist knowledge. Nevertheless, the propagation can be worthwhile, because self-bred deciduous trees are the pride of any hobby gardener. So multiply booking.
Earlier articles do not often suffer from diseasesWhich methods for the propagation of beech are there?
Beech from seed multiply
The slightly poisonous beechnuts are found in beech forests and parks. Collect enough of these fruits. Put it in a water bath at home. All the nutlets that float on the water throw you away, because they are not fertile.
The other fruits must either be sown immediately in the field or put in the fridge for a single time. By cold the germ inhibition is overcome (stratification).
Beech seeds are sown in pots or at the desired location and covered with soil. The first bee seedlings should show up after a few months. Potted seedlings may be planted in spring.
Pull new beeches from cuttings
Cut some semi-woody shoots in spring or summer. Remove the lower leaves and cut off the tip.
Treat the bottom interface with rooting powder and place the cutting in pots or in the designated location. Pots must be winterized frost-free.
In spring new buds should have formed on some shoots, indicating that the cuttings are rooted. Unfortunately, this type of propagation does not always work.
Abmoosen - high garden art for advanced skiers
The Abmoosen requires some expertise and a lot of patience. The type of propagation is very well suited for particularly decorative and old beech trees, which the gardener would like to receive.
Shoots only lower in very young trees
Propagation over sinkers succeeds in very young trees, where the young branches can be pulled down to the ground.
The branches are scratched, covered with earth and fixed. After a few months, the earth is removed and checked for new roots.
Tips
Hornbeams, which are often erroneously counted as beeches, can be multiplied in a similar way to beech trees. Again, new trees are pulled from the nutlets or cuttings.
