In the cultivation of Rubber fig, because the top advantage of Rubber fig is relatively strong, so the trunk generally grows higher, if not pruned, the top bud continues to germinate, and the axillary bud does not grow for a long time, it will grow into a single branch, become a slender pole, it is difficult to see
In order to avoid this phenomenon, we need to deal with the Rubber fig to prevent its one pole from being too long.
First of all, we should pay attention to water and fertilizer when cultivating Rubber fig. Rubber figs like big water and big fat, but water and fat can not be excessive, it is easy to grow in vain, the longer the main branch is, the higher it is, becoming a single pole. When watering, we should pay attention to dry and wet, not too dry, and control water and fertilizer in winter. Fertilization to meet the needs of the good, but not too much or too thick, will be very bad for the growth of Rubber fig.
Second is pruning. Generally, Rubber fig can be cut short when they grow to a certain height. After a short cut, it can usually sprout a few lateral branches. Generally, 3-5 are the best ones. If there are too many, it is necessary to cut off the extra ones. Wait until the lateral branches grow to a certain height, you can cut the lateral branches, grow out the lateral branches, and then keep them properly.
After that, we should pay attention to pruning it every year, cutting off the branches that have no effect on growth and appreciation, so as to keep it in a good shape.
