How to pinch the tip of the hanging bamboo plum

Definition of Topping:

Pinching is also called topping. Pinching can control the height or length of plant growth. If it is a flowering plant, pinching can increase the number of its flowers. If it is a fruit-bearing food, pinching can accelerate the growth rate of its fruit. The most important thing is that it can make the plant grow stronger and promote the growth of new branches.

Topping method:

The hanging bamboo plum will grow very fast in a suitable environment. In order to prevent its branches and vines from growing too long and affecting the growth of its leaves and the shape of the whole plant, it is necessary to pinch it to inhibit its excessive growth.

The time for pinching should be when the hanging bamboo plum is growing most vigorously. Select the main branches and vines, and cut off 1 cm to 2 cm from the top. After cutting, do not let the cut end touch water, just let it dry naturally.

If there are branches that are too long, you can cut them off directly because their older leaves are easy to fall off. The main thing is that a long branch will affect the overall effect.

Precautions

Although pinching can promote plant growth, it is not suitable for all plants, so friends should not be tempted to pinch the tops of plants every day. If you do not pinch the tips properly, the plant may not bloom normally or the flowers may be smaller. Therefore, friends must learn more about plants before pinching. For example, pinching the pennywort will have the opposite effect. Petunia is very suitable for pinching, and pinching will increase the number of its flowers.
