How to trim the eight-sided fortune

Bamianlaicai pruning time

There is generally no exact time for pruning the Broomrape, but it needs to be topped off during its seedling stage, and when it has pests and diseases, the diseased and insect-infested leaves must be cut off in time. In addition, it must be properly shaped to give it a good-looking plant shape.

Pruning branches and leaves

When caring for the Bamian Laicai, some dead leaves and broken leaves need to be cut off in time, because they will affect the beauty of the plant shape and consume too much nutrients. When its branches and leaves are relatively dense, they need to be thinned out in time.

During the growth process of the Eight-sided Fortune Plant, some poorly growing or overly dense branches and leaves should be cut off in time to improve the ventilation between plants. When pruning, it is generally focused on shaping and topping, and the lower part of the stem should not be damaged. After pruning, you must pay attention to reasonable maintenance to ensure the smooth growth of new buds and new roots.

Eight-sided wealth trimming

1. Control the height: The main trunk of the eight-sided fortune plant needs to be shortened and the upper part of the fork of the branches on the upper part of the plant should be cut off. New buds will grow from the nodes, thus forming a natural tree shape, which can control the height of the plant.

2. Plant shaping: Cut off the dry leaves of the plant to reduce the consumption of some nutrients and allow other leaves to get more sufficient light. Cutting off the dry leaves can make the plant more beautiful.

3. Pruning during repotting: Potted Aglaonema should be repotted once every 1-2 years. During the repotting process, in addition to pruning its plant shape, you can also prune its roots.

Things to pay attention to when pruning Bamianlaicai

1. When pruning the eight-sided croton, try not to choose winter, because pruning will cause some wounds to the plant. In winter, due to the low temperature, these wounds heal relatively slowly, and it may be invaded by pathogens, so try to choose pruning when the temperature is above 12 degrees.

2. When pruning the Broomrape, some wounds will be left on the stems and branches. Before the wounds heal, do not spray fertilizer near the wounds, as this will affect the healing speed of the wounds.
