Can the old Kalanchoe stump continue to grow after being shaved?There is a problem with Kalanchoe that is a headache for many flower lovers, that is, the plant grows leggy and old, and the claws and teeth are really not very beautiful, so some flower lovers will use the "shaving" method to trim the old stump. So, can Kalanchoe still sprout if the old stump is left after pruning? The answer is yes: it can grow, and if well cared for, it can be very ornamental. This is very good, because after shaving its head it can continue to grow, and new buds will grow from the part where the leaves fell off before, so we should not be afraid that it will not grow. Precautions for maintenance of old Kalanchoe piles after shavingFirst, the time to cut and prune the longevity flowerAfter the branches of old Kalanchoe stumps become lignified, the activity of cells decreases and the germination ability also decreases. It is best to cut the head when the Kalanchoe stump is in its vigorous growth period. If you don’t know how to make a judgment, you can use “season as a supplement and temperature as the main factor” to make a judgment. In spring and autumn, the temperature is between 18 and 28 degrees Celsius. Beheading in the season suitable for growth can speed up wound healing, enhance cell activity, and increase germination ability. Second, the shaving and trimming operation of Kalanchoe1. Before shaving the Kalanchoe, you should first apply urea, which can promote leaf growth and increase germination. About 5 days after applying urea, water thoroughly once. Then start limiting water. 2. Kalanchoe is a succulent plant. When it is bruised or pruned, it will secrete a lot of mucus from the wound. When shaving Kalanchoe, it needs to limit water for about a week. 3. When cutting off the main branches, pay more attention to leaving healthy side branches. When cutting off the side branches, pay more attention to leaving the lowest leaves. The positions with leaves can sprout faster. 4. When shaving the head of the Kalanchoe, use a sharp utility knife to cut off the wound in one go. The wound should be trimmed smooth and without burrs, and then apply wound healing agent. Third, the maintenance and management of Kalanchoe after shaving1. After shaving the head of the Kalanchoe, keep it in a cool and ventilated place, then spray the main trunk every day, and water it after the third day. Be careful not to let the water touch the wound when watering. 2. Keep the maintenance position of Kalanchoe, do not allow the temperature to exceed 30 degrees Celsius, and do not allow the temperature to fall below 15 degrees Celsius. High temperatures will aggravate the loss of wound fluid, and low temperatures will make it difficult for the germination to occur. 3. One week after beheading, you can use an 800-fold aqueous solution of gibberellic acid to spray the whole plant. Gibberellic acid can increase cell activity, promote wound healing, and promote germination. |
