Many people have planted money trees at home , but because the plant itself grows very fast, if you don't pay attention to pruning it, it will soon become lush. In fact, pruning the money tree is very necessary. It not only ensures the beauty of the tree, but also makes the plant more breathable and ventilated and will not be invaded by pests. Finally, the absorption of nutrients will be more balanced. The following is an illustration of the steps for pruning the money tree . Illustration of the steps for pruning a fortune tree¤ Preparation before pruning the fortune tree To prune the fortune tree, you must first confirm whether the fortune tree at home can be pruned. If it can, you need to prepare for pruning. The pruning of the fortune tree is generally chosen at the turn of spring and summer, because the fortune tree grows vigorously at this time and can recover very quickly after pruning. Before pruning, you need to apply appropriate fertilizer and water to the plant, because after cutting off the old and dead branches, the plant will grow new branches and will need a lot of nutrition. Generally, fertilization once every 2 or 3 days is sufficient. ¤ Illustration of the steps for pruning a fortune tree 1. Check the basic shape of the whole money tree, plan the shape of the tree to be pruned later, and arrange the basic work of shaping. 2. Use scissors to cut off the diseased, dead and overgrown branches on the money tree, and remove the excess money tree leaves. If you want to shape it better, you can do the pruning work more thoroughly to produce some necessary buds. Everything else can be trimmed away, but the buds need to be left longer to grow new branches. 3. The growth speed of the money tree is still very fast after pruning, so the money tree should grow new buds and leaves in about 20 days, and then the money tree will grow better after a month, and basically the tree shape will have emerged. After 35 days, the money tree will be basically grown, and its new tree shape is very elegant and beautiful. The time in between is actually very short, but as the money tree grows, in order to maintain the new tree shape, it is still necessary to prune the branches and leaves from time to time. ¤ Maintenance of the fortune tree after pruning Plant growth is certainly not as simple as people imagine. After pruning the money tree, many branches and leaves on the plant are cut off. In order to grow and survive better, maintenance work after pruning is very important. So what specific work is involved? 1. Reduce watering : After pruning, the money tree loses a large number of branches and leaves, so the demand for water is not that high, and the evaporation rate of water is also relatively reduced. Therefore, in order to avoid the pruned wounds being infected by water, it is necessary to reduce the amount of watering and the frequency of watering to prevent the wounds of the plant from being infected and rotten. 2. Increase fertilization : After pruning, the money tree needs a richer nutrient supply to recover quickly, and in order to grow new branches, the nutrient supply must be more abundant. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the amount of fertilizer in time. Fertilization is required every 2 to 3 days, and general compound fertilizer is sufficient. 3. Pay attention to light : The newly trimmed money tree cannot receive light immediately, so it needs to be placed in a hidden place indoors. After a period of time, that is, after it grows branches and leaves, it can be moved outdoors to receive sunlight. |
