1. Topping: Cut off healthy buds on overly long branches during the seedling stage of Blue Snowflake. 2. Branch bud pruning: Ensure that the length of the side branches is consistent with the length of the main branch. After pruning, apply potassium permanganate solution to the wound. 3. Pruning of residual branches: promptly prune residual and diseased branches, and thin out overly long branches. 4. Shaping and pruning: Keep the plant height of Blue Snowflake at ten to fifteen centimeters.
How to prune Blue Snowflakes
1. Topping
Blue Snowflakes need topping during the seedling stage to remove the strong branches on the overly long branches. Cut off the bud points. After cutting, apply carbendazim solution on the incision for disinfection to prevent the wound from being infected by germs and affecting the healthy growth of the plant.
2. Branch bud pruning
During the growth period of blue snowflakes, this should be done regularly on the branches and buds of the plant. The side branches should not be too long and should be consistent with the length of the main branch. Shorten the branches at their bud points to promote better growth of the branches. Pay attention to applying potassium permanganate solution to the wound.
3. Pruning of residual branches
During the maintenance process of Blue Snowflake, you should always observe whether there are diseased branches or residual branches. If there are diseased branches or residual branches, they should be cut off in time. Avoid nutrient consumption and thin out overly dense branches to increase the lighting and ventilation of Blue Snowflakes.
4. Pruning
During maintenance, keep the plant height of Blue Snowflake at ten to fifteen centimeters. If the plant shape is too high, it will affect the beauty of the plant, so regular maintenance is required. The top branches are short and grow downwards to enhance the visual sense. The length of the bottom branches is about fifteen centimeters.
