How to prune sunflowers? Can sunflowers still bloom after pruning?

1. How to trim

1. Pinching: It grows relatively fast, so you should pay attention to pruning from the seedling stage. When 8-10 leaves have grown, cut off the top of the main stem. Do not move the side branches at this time to ensure the plant shape. After pruning the main stem, the side branches will have more nutrients and the number of flowers will increase.

2. Side branch pruning: Do not move the side branches during the seedling stage, but prune them in time in the later stage to achieve a full-pot growth. The tops of the side branches should also be cut off, which can save a lot of nutrients and thus increase the number of flowers. It grows fast and recovers quickly.

3. Prune leaves: If you find that the leaves are too dense during management, you must prune them, otherwise it will consume a lot of nutrients and affect flowering. Some leaves should be removed, and be careful not to get the wound wet. Keep it in a cool place first, and then resume management after the wound is dry.

2. Can flowers still bloom after pruning?

Of course it can bloom after pruning. The purpose of pruning is to save nutrients, make the plant fuller, and thus promote more flowering. Cut off some leaves and branches that are too long and dense, and shorten them to facilitate the sprouting of new branches. Pay attention to the time of pruning, avoid rainy weather, and choose to do it on sunny days. Otherwise, the wound will easily rot due to water, making it difficult for the plant to recover and hindering its growth.
