How to trim micro moon

When to prune the micro moon

Micro-moon is a plant suitable for growing in a warm and humid environment. It is in flowering period all year round. The pruning method of each season is different, and it can be pruned in all seasons.

When pruning micro-moons, you can use the pruned cuttings as cutting materials, but as branches for cuttings, generally they should be taken when the branches are pregnant with flower buds but have not yet opened. Two branches with one leaf and one node can be cut off from each branch.

Micro-monthly pruning

1. Early spring pruning: Micro-moon needs to be heavily pruned in spring, retaining about 3 to 4 main branches. Other branches can be completely cut off or shortened. The length of the retained branches is usually about 3 to 5 cm.

2. Pruning after flowering: Micro-moon needs to be pruned immediately after the initial flowers fade. For branches with vigorous growth, the degree of pruning should be reduced appropriately, leaving about 5 buds. For branches with normal growth, 3 to 4 buds can generally be retained. For branches with weak growth, only 1 to 2 buds need to be left, and the rest of the branches can be cut off.

3. Pruning after autumn: The rose blooms all year round. After the flowers fade in autumn, the branches and leaves need to be shortened, and the branches that grow too fast need to be pruned to ensure the appropriate density of the entire plant. Weak, dry, diseased and old branches need to be pruned immediately to improve the ornamental value of the rose.

4. Winter pruning: After entering winter, the micro-moon needs to be heavily pruned. Cut off most of the branches, remove one-third of the length of the vigorously growing branches, cut off two-thirds of the length of the weak branches, and leave the strong branches as the main trunk.

Tips for micro-moon pruning

During the period when the micro-moon has strong growth and germination ability, it is necessary to prune reasonably, prune off too long and too many branches, reduce nutrient consumption, and ensure the vigorous growth of branches, leaves and flowers with the remaining nutrients.

If you want the micro-moon to grow faster, you need to prune it uniformly after flowering, cutting it to half the height of the plant, and cutting it evenly with scissors. When you prune it hard in winter, shorten the height of the plant appropriately, and it will grow faster.

Micro-month pruning and flowering

The micro-moon blooms all year round. After the flowers fade, the branches and leaves need to be pruned, and the branches that grow too fast need to be trimmed to ensure the appropriate density of the entire plant. It can also save nutrients and ensure that it has enough nutrients for the next flowering.

Tips for Micro-Moon Pruning

Pay attention to timely pruning of the remaining flowers, which can concentrate nutrients, promote more flowers and longer flowering periods. Otherwise, the axillary buds near the remaining flowers will easily sprout and produce weak branches, which will not only consume the nutrients of the plant, but also destroy the shape of the plant, and the flowers that bloom will mostly be deformed.
