Peacock ball beheading method

1. Time Selection

It is best to behead the peacock ball in spring, when the temperature can stabilize at around 15-20 degrees Celsius, which is helpful for recovery and causes less damage to the peacock ball itself and will not affect normal growth. Autumn is also possible, as the climate is relatively stable at this time. As for summer and winter, these two seasons are not very suitable. The climate in summer is very hot. At this time, the cut heads are prone to lose water under the sun, and it is also difficult to recover. In winter, the temperature drops sharply, and the cold temperature is not conducive to beheading.

2. Prepare tools

Appropriate tools are the basis of beheading. The knife must be sharp so that the branches can be cut off quickly and the incision can be smooth. Before use, it needs to be disinfected to prevent bacteria from infecting the wound.

3. Begin beheading

Observe the growth of the entire peacock ball, determine the location for beheading, and cut off this part with a blade. Be sure to move quickly.

4. Post-maintenance

After beheading, pay attention to maintenance and do not let the cut come into contact with water to prevent infection and rot. If the cut part is plump, you can put it aside to let the juice dry, and then use it for cuttings.
