How to prune lucky bamboo when it grows tall

1. Pruning method

1. Prune the roots: After it grows tall, you can take it out of the soil or water, and then use a knife to cut an oblique cut from the root part. Be careful not to plant it immediately after cutting. It should be placed in a ventilated place to dry first, and then planted in a pot.

2. Trim the top: You can also trim from the top and cut off the tender leaves on the top. This way the height can be controlled, which will promote the growth of leaves around it, maintain a consistent height, and be more beautiful. Remember to apply healing agent to the wound after pruning, and it will heal in a short time.

3. Pruning branches: If the plant grows too tall, it will affect its appearance. You can also cut off the excess branches during pruning to make the plant more compact. This can also increase light transmittance so that each leaf can see the light and is conducive to growth.

2. Precautions

If you are growing the plant in water, be careful not to change the water immediately when pruning it, otherwise it will easily cause the branches and leaves to wither and fall off. About half a month after pruning, an appropriate amount of nutrient solution should be added to the water to supplement nutrients, which will help the plant recover its growth faster and make the leaves more vibrant. In addition, please note that it is best to apply healing agents on the wounds to facilitate recovery.
