1. How to pinch the heart1. Time: The best time to pinch the tops is during the seedling stage. When the gardenia seedlings grow to about 10-15cm, you can pinch them. 2. Tools: You can prepare suitable knives, preferably sharp ones. You can use a utility knife. Disinfect it before use to prevent infection of the wound. 3. Method: Keep a main trunk of about 15 cm, and cut off any part above 15 cm. This will remove the highest growth point to promote branch growth. 2. Other pruning1. Leggy branches: In addition to pinching, you should also pay attention to pruning leggy branches. Generally, May to July is the period of vigorous growth. At this time, its sprouting ability is very strong, which leads to the appearance of many leggy branches. According to the growth situation, the leggy branches can be shortened to promote the growth of side branches and increase the amount of flowering in the future. 2. Withered and yellow branches: When the plant is first planted, it will not adapt to the growing environment and withered and yellow leaves may appear. For these withered and yellow leaves, there is no need to wait until a specific time to prune them. You can cut them off as soon as you see them, completely cutting them off from the bottom base. |
