Learn how to pinch and top the flowers, and you can plant any flower to bloom

The role of pinching

Pinching is actually topping, which is mainly to promote the branching of flowers and plants, forming a plump plant shape, avoiding the flowers and plants from growing into "bare branches" in the end, increasing the amount of branches and leaves, and at the same time it can also promote the formation of flower buds, allowing the plants to bloom more and more densely!

First pinching

Picking time:

For those plants that like to overflow the pot, you cannot pinch the tops after the seedlings grow very tall. Usually, the first pinching is done when the plants grow to about 8cm to 10cm. The first pinching is more important and can control the height of the plants.

Second and third pinching

Picking time:

In fact, after the first pinching, several pinchings are needed to control the shape of the flowers and plants. For example, for the Baiwan Xiaoling demonstrated above, pinching once can only temporarily control the growth height of the plant. If you want more side branches, you will need a second, or even a third or fourth pinching. For larger plants like chrysanthemums, pinching 2 to 3 times is enough.

Topping method:

After the first pinching, wait until the plant grows to a certain height and then do the second pinching. Flower lovers can choose this height as appropriate. Moreover, pinching can also control the spread direction of the plant. As shown in the figure below, you can pinch more times in places where the plant has not spread.

Topping effect:

Look at the picture below. Pinching does not necessarily mean pinching the very first branch. The new branches that grow after pinching can also be pinched. Moreover, pinching the new branches will make the plant fuller!
