Why do we have to chop down the fortune tree?

1. Reasons

The money tree is a perennial tree that can reach a height of 4-5m. Generally, they are grown at home as bonsai for viewing, and plants that are too tall are difficult to place. Beheading the plant can effectively inhibit its vertical growth, which is beneficial to the growth of side branches, making the plant more sturdy and prosperous, and easier to appreciate the leaves.

2. Beheading method

①First, use a sterilized saw to cut off the top 1/3 of the trunk, and then apply drugs such as carbendazim to the wound. After the wound medicine is completely absorbed, seal it with wax or red paint, which can effectively prevent the wound from being infected by diseases, pests and other diseases and prevent infection.

② Do not rush to water the plants after they have just been treated. Wait until the soil is completely dry, and then water them thoroughly. After drying in the shade for a period of time, new shoots will grow in about 5-7 days. At this time, the plant can be placed in scattered sunlight for maintenance. Plants that germinate more slowly may be due to low temperatures. They can be placed in a warm and humid place and will slowly grow new branches.
