When pruning pocket coconuts, you can cut them shorter in spring. By doing so, on the one hand, it can prevent the excessively long branches from growing taller, and on the other hand, it can make the branches stronger. In the process of pruning, useless buds can be treated by removing the core. In order to ensure that plants are not affected, care should be taken not to tear when pruning.
In addition, you can also cut off redundant leaves and branches that are too yellow, which can make the shape more ideal, but you should also pay attention to the limit of pruning, and cutting too much is not conducive to their growth.
2. Pruning time Basically, this plant can be pruned all year round. This plant grows most vigorously when the weather is warm in spring and summer. At this time, if the pruning is reasonable, the new branches of plants will sprout soon. However, pruning can also be carried out in autumn and winter, but when the light is not particularly sufficient and the temperature is low, the plant will grow slowly and it is not easy to grow new branches.
3. Precautions when pruning this plant should pay attention to keeping a large distance between the incision on the stem node and the bud eye, otherwise the plant will wither easily. When trimming, make sure it is flat and not torn, and smooth it if necessary.
In addition, in order to have a better viewing effect, you can also trim and reshape at any time. You can also cut off the branches and dead branches that affect the appearance of pocket coconuts according to personal aesthetics.
