How to prune Yachiyo

1. Pruning season

Usually in spring and autumn. Because the winter is too cold, the Hachimansia will stop growing when the temperature is below five degrees Celsius, and may even suffer slight frostbite. When the temperature is below zero degrees Celsius, their leaves are more likely to have cells frozen to death, so it is not suitable for pruning in winter. When the temperature is higher than 35 degrees Celsius, the truncatum will stop growing, so it is not suitable for pruning in summer. Therefore, in spring and autumn, the temperature is more suitable and will not cause damage to the eight thousand generations during the pruning process.

2. Pruning techniques

Once the eight thousand generations show signs of drying up, we have to start pruning and cut off the old leaves in time, otherwise there will be bacteria. Sometimes the Hachimange will grow too tall. At this time, you can trim the branches and leaves at the top, both to shape it and to make it healthier.

We recommend starting pruning two to three nodes from the top. Remember to disinfect the scissors with alcohol before using them to avoid infection. Then pull out the lower leaves to prevent excessive evaporation of nutrients and water.

3. Notes after pruning

1. After pruning, the cut surface should not be exposed to the sun. Try to keep it dry to avoid infection.

2. Avoid over-watering. As a succulent plant, the internal moisture content of Hachimansia is extremely high. If you water it heavily right after pruning, it will become overly moist and promote its rotting.

3. Suitable for sandy soil with good drainage and air permeability.

4. The mother branches may wither and fall off after pruning. This is normal and must be cleaned up in time.

5. The cut leaves can be used for leaf cuttings. If one method of propagation is unsuccessful, there is always a backup plan. Plant the cut leaves in clean soil, avoid overwatering or direct sunlight, and then slowly wait for them to take root and sprout!
