How to prune gardenia seedlings

How to prune gardenia seedlings

1. First time pinching

Gardenia seedlings need to be pruned in time. Do not wait until they grow very tall before pinching. Generally, they need to be pinched for the first time when they grow to 8-10cm, and the top part should be cut off. This pinching is very important, which can control the height of the plant's growth, promote the growth of other branches, and make the whole plant become lush and full.

Second, secondary pinching

The pruning process does not end after the first pinching. When the plant grows to a certain height again, you can pinch it again. You can pinch it when it grows to the height of the first pinching, or you can choose according to the specific growth conditions. This pinching can control the spreading direction of the plant and promote the horizontal growth of the plant. If there are still gaps in the flowerpot where the grass has not spread yet, you can pinch the top a few more times.

3. Cut off the yellow leaves

The newly planted seedlings have not yet fully adapted to the growth environment. The surrounding environment has an impact on the growth of the plants, which may cause yellow leaves or withered leaves. If they continue to be left there, it will not only affect the appearance, but also consume nutrients. You can cut them off from the withered base to remove them more thoroughly.
