How to prune arhat pine
There is no doubt that pruning is indispensable for the maintenance of potted Podocarpus. But to be precise, the pruning of arhat pine can't be treated equally, and it needs to be separated specifically. According to the necessity of potted plants, pruning is not only for simple modeling, but also for the healthy growth of flowers and trees. It can also be divided into the requirements of ordinary modeling maintenance and plastic surgery for potted plants. So if you want to do this job well, you must master it more.

Pruning usually ensures that the normal shape is maintained. For example, general work such as topping and pruning needs to be carried out many times in the whole process of the normal growth of Podocarpus, and most of them can be carried out anytime and anywhere in all growing seasons, regardless of time. As we all know, it is not good to trim or modify harmful shapes. Because of the big posture at that time, there will be wounds and damage to the original growth of the tree. Choose the right time and opportunity.

1, used for modeling and pruning of nutrient distribution.

Generally speaking, people call this whole process thinning. The common method is to cut off all the branches, starting from the tip, so that the actual effect of natural ventilation of the whole stump is stronger, the consumption of some redundant nutrients is reduced, and the nutrients left in the branches are richer, that is, the purpose of plastic surgery can be achieved, the formation time of old piles can be accelerated, and the distribution of nutrients in flowers and trees can be reasonably adjusted, so that trees can grow stronger and be healthier physically and mentally.

2. Manipulate the pruning of tree plastic surgery.

The key of this method is to cut off the branches, according to the method of cutting off the long branches, make them sprout more robust, push out the branches and make the desired modeling branches. This method is universal in the whole process of doing big modeling on Luohansong. After cutting off other unnecessary branches, it can solve the problem of forcing the remaining large branches to germinate, promote the germination of modeling branches, make the branches of branches rise rapidly and reduce the branch spacing.

3. Pruning for dwarfing.

The common method is to shrink the branches that have grown for many years and make them grow again, which can make the big branches smaller, and also promote the germination of new branches reasonably, so that the growing branches are greatly reduced. The actual effect it can make is incomparable with the above two methods, which can make the posture of the stump stronger and make the trees shrink, especially when the germination power is strong. It is the key way to manipulate trunk and dwarf potted plants.
