Pruning method of magnolia tree in winter
When pruning magnolia trees in winter, all branches that are aging, pests and flowering should be cut off to reduce the consumption of water and nutrients in the plants and ensure the normal growth of the plant trunk in winter. Carbendazim should be applied in time after pruning to avoid wound infection.
When pruning magnolia trees in winter, the branches that grow too densely and too long should be pruned randomly to improve the light transmittance and ventilation of the plants and promote the normal photosynthesis. The pruned branches are washed with clear water, sprayed with Baijunjing, disinfected and dried, and can be directly planted in the soil to grow new plants.
When pruning Magnolia grandiflora in winter, the branches and buds near the root system of the plant should be cut off, leaving only 4-5 leaves to promote the growth and development of the main branches. It is also necessary to choose strong lateral branches as new main branches for cultivation, which is conducive to better branching and flowering of plants in the second year.
When pruning magnolia trees in winter, there is no need to prune them in large areas, because the plants are dormant at this time, which will disturb the physiological balance of the plants. When pruning magnolia trees, loosen the soil, ensure good air permeability and drainage of the soil, reduce the viscosity of the soil, and prevent the occurrence of root rot.
