It will enter the period of vigorous growth in summer, so the pruning time can be from March to April. At this time, the temperature is right, and the plant is about to sprout new buds. In addition, after pruning this season, it can grow new branches and leaves in the shortest time.
When pruning it, in addition to choosing a suitable pruning time, we should also prepare appropriate pruning tools. Usually, garden scissors are the best. We should never use ordinary scissors to prevent the blade from not being sharp enough. When pruning, the blade is not smooth and easy to be attacked by germs
After cutting off the dead and old branches, it will grow new branches again soon. At this time, it needs to consume a lot of nutrients, so sufficient nutrients are very important for it. Before pruning, we can apply 2 to 3 days of thin liquid nitrogen fertilizer to it, so as to ensure that it has enough nutrients.
When pruning it, it is mainly to cut off those branches which are not long and have weak growth, and then leave 3 to 4 bud holes at the base of those branches which have good growth, otherwise it will affect the growth of new branches in the later period. In addition, if it has good growth, it can be properly thinned to leave sufficient growth area between plants, so that it can not only grow freely. Can also play a role in ventilation and light transmission.
