How and when to trim the keel
First, the pruning time

There is usually no fixed time for keel trimming. All year round. However, because plants like warm climate, they grow slowly in high and low temperature environment, and it is not easy to recover after pruning in summer and winter, which has a certain impact on plant growth. Therefore, spring and autumn are usually chosen for pruning.

Second, the pruning method

Because the keel itself can grow to a very high height, family farming is often inconvenient to manage. Therefore, the top should be topped during the growth period to control the height of the plant. Usually, when the height is 10cm, the terminal bud can be cut off, which can remove the top advantage, promote the growth of side branches and look more beautiful.

Third, maintenance after cutting.

After the keel is trimmed, it needs to be placed in a cool and ventilated place, waiting for the wound to dry out slowly. If it is placed in a sunny place, water will often be lost too quickly, which is not conducive to the subsequent growth of plants. In addition, after pruning, it is necessary to apply fertilizer properly and supplement some nutrients to make it recover quickly.

Fourth, the use of branches

Don't waste the cut keel branches After proper treatment, you can insert them into flowerpots to cultivate new plants. Usually, soft soil should be selected for cutting, and good air permeability is very helpful for root respiration. Don't water it immediately after cutting, and then add water after it takes root.
