How to grow plum blossoms in summer

1. Ensure lighting

Plum blossoms have certain requirements for sunlight. They should be placed in a sunny place to ensure that they can receive sunlight. This can also promote photosynthesis and provide a sufficient basis for growth. However, the sunlight intensity in summer is relatively strong, so you cannot be exposed to the scorching sun for a long time.

2. Application of water and fertilizer

In the summer, plum blossoms will enter a period of vigorous growth and have a greater demand for water and fertilizer. It is necessary to do a good job in water and fertilizer management, and apply water and fertilizer in time to ensure that the growth needs are met and not affect growth. When the temperature is high, the plant will enter a dormant state. At this time, the application of water and fertilizer needs to be strictly controlled and not too much, otherwise it will affect its later growth.

3. Pruning

Pruning in summer is critical and can directly affect later growth, with a focus on dead branches, crossed branches, diseased and insect-infested branches, and overlapping branches. Only by removing these useless branches can the consumption of nutrients be reduced and nutrients accumulated to ensure growth.

4. Improve ventilation

The temperature in summer is very high and it is quite hot, so ventilation needs to be strengthened, which can help lower the temperature and reduce the infection of pests and diseases. If pests and diseases occur, medication should be used in a timely manner.
