Can lilies be topped?

Can lilies be topped?

1. Do you need it?

This plant, like many other plants, needs to be topped. By topping, you can increase production and produce more flowers.

2. Time

For this plant, topping is mostly done during the Spring Festival and summer.

3. Specific methods

(1) It needs to be done once in spring, when it sprouts. Select a strong bud and keep it. As for other weak buds, you can remove them. Doing this can effectively avoid the bulb splitting.

(2) Around the time of Grain Full, the height of the plant can generally reach about 27 to 33 centimeters. At this time, it is also necessary to remove the top in time. This is done to control the growth rate of the above-ground part of the plant so that all nutrients are not supplied to the upper part.

(3) Then, around the time of Grain in Ear. This time it is for varieties with bulbils. If you don't want to use it for reproduction, you can pick them off in time to prevent them from consuming too much nutrients. This time can also be combined with summer flower picking. Because their purpose is the same, which is to reduce unnecessary nutrient consumption.

(4) This also needs to be done around June. At this time, we need to choose the right time. The specific time is when we observe that the flower buds become droopy and their color on the sunny side changes to pink.

(5) The bulbils also need to be removed around the summer solstice.

4. Notes

After topping, it is necessary to adjust the amount of fertilizer containing N element. This will promote the growth of the bulb.
