Gyokuro Beheading Tutorial

1. Beheading Method

1. Preparation for beheading: Before beheading, you need to prepare the beheading tools. You should prepare strong nylon rope such as fishing line, utility knife, and carbendazim disinfectant.

2. Beheading: Before beheading, you need to tidy up the leaves at the bottom first, make a denim loop with the fishing line, and remember to leave line on both sides, otherwise it will be inconvenient to use both hands. Put it on the base of the leaf, then pull the fishing line with both hands to cut off the head of the jade plant.

3. Beheading maintenance: After beheading, you need to apply some carbendazim on the wound, which can effectively prevent the incision from rotting. Then place it in a cool place with good air circulation, and the cut seedlings can be transplanted by leaf cuttings.

2. Precautions

During the beheading process, you cannot use too much force, otherwise the plant will be damaged. Just gently pull the fishing line back and forth, and this will not harm the plant. If there is no carbendazim, you need to dry it in the sun for a few more days and avoid letting it come into contact with water during the drying period.
