1. Pruning seasonThe lucky tree is usually pruned in summer, usually in July. It grows vigorously in high temperature environments and can branch out quickly after pruning. In addition, pruning can also be carried out during the dormant period in winter when the temperature is low to reduce its consumption of water and nutrients. 2. How to prune1. Pinching: The purpose of pinching is to limit the height of the lucky tree. Since the height of potted plants at home is limited, they should be pinched in time to prevent them from growing too tall. In addition, pinching will help the growth of side branches of the lucky tree, making it more shaped like a tree. 2. Thinning: Thinning is to prevent the branches and leaves of the lucky tree from becoming too dense, resulting in a lack of light and poor ventilation inside, which can breed diseases and pests. Dense branches, crossed branches, overlapping branches, etc. must be thinned out to ensure internal air permeability. 3. Beheading: Beheading of the lucky tree is usually carried out in winter, and the entire crown is removed, leaving only the main trunk and forks. This practice is mainly aimed at plants that have been frozen in winter, reducing the loss of nutrients and water and ensuring their safe wintering. 4. Root pruning: Root pruning can be done when repotting. Cut off the old and dead roots of the plant in time to avoid rotting and causing disease. In addition, after cutting the roots, soak or apply carbendazim for simple disinfection. |
