I. treatment of terminal buds

After growing for a period of time, it needs to deal with the top bud. It grows faster and has strong germination ability. If it doesn't care for a period of time, a lot of small buds will grow on the branches. If it doesn't care, it will be difficult to control and become very messy. Some of them are difficult to form useful buds. If they stay on, they will only consume nutrients. Therefore, the top bud needs to be dealt with in the growth period. Remove the undeveloped bud, do not stay on it, to prevent it from affecting the later growth.

3. Prune the branches.

When it is still young, it is necessary to deal with some newly growing branches, remove some of the annual small branches, and do not stay on them all the time, so as to promote the centralized supplement of nutrients, and make the lateral buds grow out, and only when the number of lateral buds increases, can the plant form flourish and plump. After the flower withers, we also need to deal with the flower branches. The disease and insect branches should be cut off from the base. For some of them that grow densely, grow in branches, and overlap again, we need to remove some of them. They can not only accumulate nutrients, but also enhance the transparency.
