(1) Nailing: Remove overgrown buds, prevent long branches from growing, or cultivate ideal clump and dwarf plant shapes. Remove the main bud, stimulate axillary bud germination, and grow lateral branches, such as chrysanthemum and a bunch of red and aster tataricus l. f., which need topping. "Stimulate lateral buds to germinate and form more lateral branches, thus achieving multi-flowering. The method of topping is to use your fingers or remove the buds at the top. Scissors.
(2) Bud wiping: Wipe off axillary buds, twigs or flower buds on branches, with the purpose of concentrating nutrition, so that the main stem is straight and strong, the flowers are big and bright, and the fruits are full. For example, when cultivating potted flowers with big flowers such as chrysanthemums, we should constantly wipe off the axillary buds in the axils of leaves, leaving only the terminal buds to grow. Finally, the terminal bud differentiates into a bud, producing a big and beautiful flower. .
(3) Cutting: Cutting is divided into heavy cutting, medium cutting and light cutting. Re-pruning is also called strong pruning. After a few years of flowering, the growth vitality is weakened. It needs pruning again. When pruning again, only 2-3 buds are left at the base of the lateral branches, and the rest are cut off. After cutting flowers again, we should fully fertilize them so as to grow strong new branches. Some foliage plants, such as rubber trees and Liriodendron, are very ugly because of improper maintenance. In this case, you can use the method of heavy cutting to cut off the upper branches and keep the side branches. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the management of water and fertilizer, so that it will not take too long to grow into plump and symmetrical plants. As for the middle pruning, it is generally to cut off the super-long branches and branches harmed by pests and diseases. Light pruning is to cut off redundant lateral branches, dense branches and horizontal branches to adjust the shape of flower plants, which is conducive to ventilation and light transmission.
(4) Leaf picking: Some flowers, such as red maple, lose the beauty of new leaves in summer when the leaves are old in spring. At this time, we can remove the old leaves and strengthen the management of water and fertilizer. In this way, the red maple can grow new leaves:
(5) Sparse flowers: Flowers observed by humans often produce a large number of flowers, but the number of fruits is far less than the number of flowers. In order not to waste nutrients and ensure a certain amount of fruit, flowers should be thinned at flowering stage, and some dense spikes on branches should be removed to ensure fruit quality. For ornamental flowers, the purpose of planting flowers is to produce large and beautiful flowers. If all the buds on the branches are in bloom, the flowers must be very thin. In order to make flowers of high quality and large diameter, it is necessary to reduce flowering. Keep the main bud in the center and remove the surrounding secondary buds.
Through our introduction, I believe everyone has a deeper understanding of the smooth cultivation methods of flowers and the common forms of pruning flowers.
