Potted podocarpus has long new leaves, how to prune?

Podocarpus is also a more common potted plant in home farming, its growth is relatively fast, in the growing season water and fertilizer to keep up, and the light is slightly better, it will grow upward. Some families prefer large ones, and planting them in the yard is also very spectacular, but they can't be trimmed as small as they are more beautiful. Placing any place is a highlight, and today we are sharing with you about the pruning of small potted podocarpus trees.

Some families prefer large ones, and planting them in the yard is also very spectacular, but they can't be trimmed as small as they are more beautiful. Placing any place is a highlight, and today we are sharing with you about the pruning of small potted podocarpus trees.

This pruning is very necessary, one is to prevent it from growing too tall as a whole, affecting the overall appearance. In addition, its pruning is very effective in promoting its later bonsai, so let's talk about some specific knowledge of its pruning. The growth of podocarpus in small potted plants is particularly fast, like a small seedling, it has grown taller and thicker in more than a year.

The main thing is that the kind of seedlings that grow upright like the relatively tall, its head can be pinched off, so that the side buds next to it are constantly emitting. The function of the side buds is that after 35 years of growth, when the diameter of these seedlings is large enough, we have to make a bonsai shape for it, and we measure the side buds to reflect its role.

It can be modeled in a year or two of growth, and the pruning we just talked about has a role in the later stage of its modeling, which is pruned in the early spring, summer, and early summer. And then the top of it can be clearly seen, if you see that every plant that grows upright has been pinched before, and now the new shoots will be more tender. These leaves can be seen to grow horizontally, or slightly obliquely, which is why we remove the apical advantage and encourage it to send out more lateral buds.

These are the effects and effects of it after pruning and pinching the stems, and the overall appearance is also more beautiful, unlike when it grows particularly tall, it will feel more panicked. Then its crown grows larger, and that's what it does after pruning. There is also a role and purpose of pruning, and finally I will share with you a little knowledge of podocarpus summer maintenance.

Don't move it back and forth at any time, so that it can spend the summer safely and grow better. In some places, the podocarpus doesn't look so big, but in fact, it is also artificially built, otherwise it will not grow so good-looking. It is not allowed to grow a shape on its own, unless it is thought to be pruning.

If it grows on its own, it will grow very strongly, and the leaves are messy and unorganized.

First of all, the top tip should be erased to prevent the shoot from elongating; Prune off new branches and roots, as well as withered or broken branches, etc., in time, so as to achieve neat and plump branch growth. The second is to do a good job of local and light pruning. Because the new sprouts and new leaves of podocarpus have just grown, the respiration and photosynthesis of the growth of the branches are larger, so do not do a lot of pruning at this time, so as not to cause too many wounds and damage the vitality, so that the growth of podocarpus is reduced.

The new leaves that continue to grow in the potted podocarpus will make the whole pot bigger and bigger, so if this happens, you can pick some old, old, and extraordinarily large leaves, which can be pruned appropriately, so that it can develop better.

I think they should be cut layer by layer, and they must not be cut too hard, otherwise it will not be conducive to their growth.

1. The first thing that needs to be done is to shape the trunk. In the process of modeling, the main trunk can be bent and tilted by means of metal wires, screws and other tools and cutting and twisting.

2. Carry out the corresponding modeling work on the branches. In the process of modeling, we should make trade-offs and directional adjustments to the branches, and control the growth and growth posture of the branches. Cut off some weak branches, whorls and branches below the main trunk 1 3, leaving only the thick side branches above the main trunk 1 3 as the first main branch.

3. In the process of modeling and binding, we need to re-untie it every six months or a year and tie it again. In the process of modeling and binding, we need to use some auxiliary tools such as: bamboo sticks, hemp rope, first fix one end of the bamboo stick on the trunk, and then guide the growth direction of the branch by adjusting its direction.

4. Pruning the crown of podocarpus bonsai: pruning work is generally carried out in the dormant period, cutting off some dead branches, diseased branches, parallel branches, and endophytic branches, and if the pine tree is in the growth period, in order to promote the pine tree to germinate more branches, you can pluck it once when the new shoots grow to about 10 cm, if the podocarpus blooms, then we need to remove part of the flower buds in time, so as not to consume nutrients.

In early spring, podocarpus can be replaced with soil, 2 parts of mountain soil, 2 parts of humus soil and 2 parts of base fertilizer are prepared for planting, and at the same time pruning diseased and insect branches, as well as overly dense branches, increasing the lighting effect, applying organic fertilizer every 10 days or so, and spraying the tomb of Tobuzin wettable powder every half a month to prevent pests and diseases.

1. Replace the potting soil

In early spring, the weather begins to gradually pick up, and it is also the season when everything begins to wake up and germinate, so how to raise potted podocarpus in early spring, podocarpus for 2 years needs to be replaced in the spring, you can choose 2 parts of mountain soil, 2 parts of humus soil and 2 parts of base fertilizer for preparation, selling infiltration can promote the growth of the root system.

2. Pruning and pruning

Early spring is the best time to prune podocarpus, at this time it is necessary to prune diseased and insect branches to avoid further spread of disease, and finally prune parallel branches to achieve the effect of pruning, some overlapping branches and rotations need to be pruned all to increase the lighting effect, but also to promote the growth of branches.

3. Topdressing fertilizer

Podocarpus is in the early spring when the germination force is stronger, at this time it is necessary to apply appropriate fertilizer to meet the nutrients required for plant growth, and organic fertilizer or low concentration nitrogen fertilizer can be applied every 10 days to promote the growth of branches.

4. Disease prevention and control

The climate gradually warms in early spring, and it is also a period of high incidence of pests and diseases, at this time it is necessary to prevent pests and diseases, and the tomb of Tobuzin wettable powder can be diluted 1000 times every half a month to spray and spray on the mammoth pine, which can effectively ** red spiders, scale insects and other diseases, and must maintain a good ventilation environment during the breeding process.

1. Modeling pruning: Proper pruning of podocarpus pine can be conducive to the beauty of the cherry blossom type next to the plant, and it has more ornamental value, modeling pruning is also one of the most important pruning methods of podocarpus, you can use some metal wires or screws and other tools to bend and tilt the branches, and you can shape them according to your own preferences, and cut off the excess branches to facilitate the appearance.

2. Thinning treatment: thinning treatment is mainly from the base of the shed, can be cut down and destroyed in a concentrated manner, but also to affect the appearance of the branches in a timely manner, overlapping branches and parallel branches to be thinning, long branches, main branches on the upright branches, drooping branches should be pruned, in order to increase the light transmittance in the crown, so that the plant to accelerate the formation.

3. Stub treatment: in the shaping process, the excess dense branches can be cut off, and the remaining branches are stubbed to promote the germination of the buds, and the first stubbing is carried out in time after the germination of new shoots, so as to increase the number of modeling branches, and the length of the pruning is about 5 cm, and the pruning range should not be too large, so as not to affect the appearance.

4. Shrink pruning treatment: shrink pruning is mainly to retract and prune perennial branches, which can promote the growth of new branches of podocarpus and restore the tree potential.

The purpose of the artistic modeling of podocarpus is to "shape the tree according to the tree" and "apply the art according to the aptitude", and use superb artistic expression techniques to excavate the highest artistic realm from the ordinary tree shape and maximize the ornamental value.

Commonly used techniques include cutting, tying, pressing, bundling, hanging, etc. The pruning modeling is relatively simple, but the modeling techniques such as tying, pressing, bundling, and hanging are more difficult, and the artistic imagination, operation skills and the condition of the stem and branches of the tree body are more demanding.

In the modeling process, it is necessary to carry out artistic processing according to the natural beauty of the seedlings themselves, that is, they must be adapted to the conditions of the tree, and the beauty must be added to the beauty, so that the shape is strong and powerful, and the layers are clear.

Scissors: You can make use of the characteristics of podocarpus pine resistance and small leaf shape to make various shapes, such as spherical, conical, multi-layer spherical, etc., just prune according to the pre-designed graphics.

For example, when pruning the three-layer spherical shape, first choose a sapling with an obvious trunk and a good upright shape. The above middle and lower three balls are gradually enlarged for the hand, in order to coordinate the proportion and have a better ornamental nature of the empty state hu, generally the new branch tips 20 30 cm when pruning is appropriate, need to prune many times, so that the layers of spherical round and compact.

Tie: The bamboo stick and branches are tied tightly and tied with hemp rope, and then one end of the bamboo stick is fixed on the main trunk, so as to adjust the direction of the bamboo stick, so that the branch grows in a specific direction according to the will of the modeler, so as to achieve the purpose of modeling.

Pressing: The pressing method is mainly through the method of bending and tilting the main trunk, so that the tree body presents a completely different artistic beauty from the upright plane on the inclined plane.

Because the branches of podocarpus resemble human arms, and the hemispherical leaves are clustered into hemispherical leaves that resemble human palms at the top of the branches, coupled with the bent body of the tree, it is like a greeter bending over and bending his arms to welcome the arrival of guests, which is very vivid.

This is the right way to prune podocarpus, so that the bonsai will be more imposing!

If it is modeled, it is best to use small scissors, don't cut the leaves to leave a cut of a cut, if there is no modeling, you don't need to prune, let it grow naturally!

Podocarpus bonsai is a very famous foliage plant, its beautiful posture and graceful form, by the majority of people welcome and love. When we are cultivating podocarpus bonsai, we need to carry out a certain amount of pruning. Generally, podocarpus bonsai is mainly topped, so how to pluck podocarpus?

I will explain it to you in detail, I hope it will bring useful help.

1. Podocarpus is the favorite breeding plant of the majority of flower friends, and it can not only add a beauty of home, but also bring auspiciousness, seek good fortune and avoid evil, and ward off evil spirits. Function. When we are in breeding, then how to pluck the bonsai of podocarpus?

First, let's take a look at what topping is.

The so-called topping is to remove the new branches germinated in the current year of the plant to the top, which has the advantage of promoting branching, increasing the amount of branches and leaves, and promoting flower bud differentiation. Topping can control the growth of heightening and elongation, which is conducive to growth and fruit development.

3. For podocarpus topping, we must first choose the right time to carry out, generally speaking, it is best to carry out it in the spring and autumn growing season. In this way, the topping can quickly make the plant grow, make its branches and leaves new, and make the shape more beautiful after the growth is rotten and stable.

First of all, we can pluck the topping after the shoots extracted from the podocarpus begin to appear lignified, so that the shoots can germinate 3-5 side buds smoothly after topping. After one topping, topping can be carried out several times according to the growth, so that the branches and leaves grow more neatly and plumply.

When the growth of podocarpus bonsai shoots is relatively sparse, it can also be plucked to promote the development and growth of axillary buds, which is conducive to increasing the number of branches. First of all, use scissors to pinch off the top growth point, so as to effectively control the growth of the top of the branch and promote the germination of the lower branch or side branches.

In fact, as a topping, the most important thing is to wait until the treetops grow to 10 cm during the growth period, if there are some flowering phenomena, then the flower buds should be removed in time, so as to save some nutrients to consume.
