Technological flow The main points of the technology Time (season or month) 1.Rootstock culture Select mature seeds from the superior trees of Xanthoceras sorbifolium Bunge, select large, full-grained, disease-free seeds for rootstock cultivation; choose leeward and shady places with high terrain and well drained condition to sand-store the seeds; accelerate germination in greenhouse and sow. September of the 1st year November of the 1st year March of the 2nd year 2.Selection of scions Well-developed branches of current year were selected for scions from selected healthy, disease-free superior mother trees. June of the 2nd year 3.Inlay bud grafting Grafting is carried out when the rootstock ground diameter is greater than 0.5 cm. June of the 2nd year 4.Rootstock cutting When the graft is viable, cut the rootstock and promote the growth of the scion. July of the 2nd year 5.Promotes lignification Fertilize with potash and water as little as possible to promote lignification. August of the 2nd year 6.Keep temperature in the morning and evening Ensure overwintering and further promote lignification. September of the 2nd year 7. Out of the nursery Autumn afforestation. October of the 2nd year 表 7
