Chrysanthemum should be topped at seedling stage, which can be done when the plant height is about 10 cm. At this time, the growing point at the top of its stem should be cut off. Dense branches and delicate leaves should be pruned regularly during the growth period of chrysanthemum, and redundant side buds should be cut off in the bud stage. Pay attention to careful maintenance after pruning.

The topping time of chrysanthemum is 1, and the topping time is seedling stage.

Chrysanthemum topping is to control the height of plants, so it is usually done at seedling stage. When the chrysanthemum plant grows to about 10 cm, cutting off the growth point at the top of its branches can also promote the germination of its lateral branches. Through this pruning method, plants will be more energetic.

Step 2 Trim branches and leaves

After the top of chrysanthemum grows vigorously, it needs to be trimmed properly, and some dense branches and leaves and sparse branches and leaves will be cut off, so that the shape of the plant will be more beautiful, and the ventilation and light transmission of the plant can be increased, which is beneficial to its better growth and flowering.

3. Bud thinning and pruning

When chrysanthemum buds form and grow, we need appropriate bud thinning measures to ensure their healthy growth. At this time, the buds at the lower end of the plant and the redundant lateral buds should be cut off, leaving the strong buds at the top of the branches, so that nutrients can be concentrated on one bud.

4. Preventive measures

Pay attention to prevent the wound of chrysanthemum from getting wet after topping and pruning, and then apply thin fertilizer when it grows to prevent the plant from growing badly. Be careful not to overdo it every time, otherwise improper pruning will easily cause irreversible damage to the plant.
