How to prune cheeky plants

1. Pruning method

1. Pinching: When the shameless plant grows to 10 cm, it needs to be pinched. Proper pinching can make the plant grow fuller. Pinching is very simple. You just need to remove the branches and leaves on the top of the plant, and you need to do it several times to encourage it to grow new branches and leaves.

2. Pruning branches and leaves: After the plant has grown into shape, its branches and leaves will continue to grow. At this time, unhealthy and some useless branches need to be pruned off, otherwise the shape of the plant will be destroyed. The main thing is to prune dry, diseased, thin and too dense branches. Only with proper pruning can nutrients be better delivered to other leaves, so that the plant can grow evenly and lushly.

2. Precautions

1. Don't prune too much. Each pruning should be moderate. If you prune too severely each time, it will not only be detrimental to its growth, but will make its growth condition worse.

2. When pruning diseased branches and leaves, be sure to disinfect the scissors, because germs will remain on the scissors after pruning. If you are too lazy to disinfect, pruning again will infect other healthy branches and leaves.
