When to mow coleusThe time periods for pruning coleus are: the first is during the seedling growth period, when the young plants grow to 10 cm; the second is when a large number of sprouts sprout during the growth period; and the third is after the flowering period. In addition, when there are dead leaves, the diseased leaves need to be cut off in time. How to trim the leaves of coleusWhen planting coleus, if you find that the leaves are turning yellow, you should remove them in time. Do not wait until they fall off naturally, because the yellow leaves are likely to become targets of pests. Removing and burning them can prevent the spread of diseases and pests. After the coleus blooms, the flower branches should be cut off, retaining the strong branches with 2-3 nodes, and all other redundant branches should be cut off. Topping is also called pinching, which is one of the main means to control the height of coleus and the sprouting of side branches. When the plant grows 4-6 leaves in the seedling stage, it should be pinched several times to remove the growth point at the top to promote the growth of side branches. During the vigorous growth period of coleus, appropriate thinning is required. Cutting off some weak branches can reduce the density and avoid nutrient waste. Tips for pruning coleusWhen pinching coleus, we must reduce the number of pinching for the mother plants for seeds, so that they can bloom and bear fruit before winter. Coleus grows fast when trimmedAfter the flowering period of coleus, it needs to be properly pruned. Keep 2-3 branches and then cut off the rest. This will allow it to grow more branches, allowing it to continue to grow and maintain vitality. Coleus pruning and floweringWhen coleus grows 4-6 leaves, you can pinch them several times. This will allow it to develop quickly, shape a beautiful appearance, and meet the needs of viewing as soon as possible. In order to make the leaves more appreciative, once the leaf inflorescence is formed, it must be removed immediately. Precautions for pruning coleusAfter pruning coleus, it should be placed in a bright place for maintenance. If it is in spring, it can be maintained in the sun. Do not place it in a dark place, because pruning is for the growth of new branches. Lack of light will cause the new branches to grow slowly, and the effect of pruning cannot be maximized. |
