Avocados need to be pruned. Proper pruning can not only promote the growth of the plant, but also help to concentrate nutrients, which is very helpful for flowering and fruiting.In addition, if the plant is sick, the diseased branches and leaves need to be cut off in time to avoid deterioration of the situation or transmission to other plants.Fertilization or spraying is often needed after pruning, which can supplement nutrients and prevent wound infection.
1, pinching: any plant branches have a top advantage, avocado is no exception.During its growth period, the terminal buds on its branches are cut off, which can promote the growth of branches and make them more lush.When there are more branches, there will be more leaves, which will help the plant to photosynthesize and accumulate nutrients.
2. Short cut: The annual branches of avocado need to be properly cut short, and the short cut should retain the nutrient branches, so that it can grow better.It should be noted that young trees should not be pruned too heavily, otherwise it will affect the fruiting of the plant and delay its fruiting period.
3. Retraction: Retraction is similar to truncation, but only for perennial branches.Retraction can make the branches rejuvenated, which is very good for the branches that have been aging for many years, and can make them blossom and bear fruit better.
4. Thinning: If the branches of the avocado are too dense and the branches and leaves are interlaced with each other, which affects the ventilation and light transmission inside, thinning is needed.Cut off leggy branches, cross branches, overlapping branches and so on to ensure that the inside can also be exposed to the sun.
