How should I prune a large pot of iron trees all year round?

Normally grown, well-managed iron trees basically do not need to be pruned, just cut off the yellow withered old branches.

It depends on how big an iron tree you are, and the average flower pot costs sixty. Eighty or more diameter is best potted iron tree:

Generally, it is not advisable to buy plants that are too large, and the pots are usually medium pots with a diameter of 20 to 30 cm. Before the iron tree is planted, put 2 cm thick coarse sand or gravel at the bottom of the pot as a seepage layer, and the culture soil should be mixed with 4 parts of humus, 3 parts of garden soil, 1 part of bone meal, 2 parts of river sand, and 200 grams of rust iron filings, and use the rotten soybean cake fertilizer as the base fertilizer. After planting, water thoroughly, put it in a cool place for half a month, and then move it to the north wind and sunny place for maintenance.

Always keep the potting soil moist, but not too wet, for the newly potted iron tree, the potting soil should not be too wet, the potting soil is not dry or wet, keep it properly dry, so as not to rot the roots. 4 In May, it can generally be watered once every 2 days. Iron trees are not resistant to water stains, so pay attention to timely drainage after rain.

6 August grows faster, when the temperature grows high, the evaporation is large, the amount of watering can be increased appropriately, except for rainy days, water should be watered once a day. Control watering after September and master the principle of "dry and wet". During the growing season, liquid fertilizer is applied once every 15 to 20 days.

Stop fertilizing in autumn.

I have two iron trees with a height of meters (clear height, section height) due to demolition, and now they can only be potted. Thank you!

Flower pots are usually medium pots with a diameter of 20 to 30 cm.

The long branches of the iron tree should be pruned off to reduce unnecessary nutrient consumption, and there will be many labor leaves and dead leaves during the growth of the iron tree, which need to be cut off in time to make the iron tree more ornamental. When cultivating iron trees, you can mix sandy soil and pastoral soil peat soil and perlite to make a substrate for cultivation, which needs to be watered every other week in spring and autumn, and every 3 or 4 days in summer.

Iron trees grow long branches to prune off, too long branches can be pruned by the method of stubbing, for the growth density of branches and leaves need to be thinned in time, timely pruning can reduce unnecessary nutrient consumption, so that nutrients are concentrated to grow strong branches, so that the new branches and leaves can better germinate.

During the growth of the iron tree, many old and dead leaves will appear, and these leaves will consume a large amount of nutrients and affect the beauty of the tree's shape. After discovery, it needs to be pruned in time, and then prune off the diseased leaves and leaflets to make the iron tree more ornamental.

Methods of maintenance of iron trees.

The root system of the iron tree is more developed, and the waterlogging tolerance is poor, so when cultivating the iron tree, it is necessary to choose the loose and breathable, strong drainage performance of the soil as the substrate for cultivation. When mixing soil, jujube bush sandy soil, pastoral soil, peat soil, perlite and vermiculite can be mixed into a substrate for cultivation. During the maintenance process, the soil needs to be changed every 1 2 years.

In the process of daily maintenance of iron trees, it is also necessary to adjust the amount of watering according to the changes of the seasons, and it is necessary to water every 1 week in spring and autumn to keep the soil in a moist state. In the summer only season, it needs to be watered every 2 to 4 days, and in winter, it needs to be watered every half month. And during the growth period of iron trees, it is necessary to apply compound fertilizers rich in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium once a month to supplement nutrition.

1. Cut off dead leaves: cut off all the old leaves and dead leaves that appear at the bottom of the iron tree. 2. Thinning pruning leaves:

Thinning the dense branches of the iron tree, truncating the long branches 1 Pruning the roots: When repotting the iron tree, cut off the yellow, rotten parts of the roots, and then cut off the long roots. 4. Precautions:

After pruning, apply plant ash and other sterilizers to the wounds of iron trees.

1. Cut off dead leaves

In the process of growth, there will be many old leaves and dead leaves at the bottom, these leaves will consume a lot of nutrients and affect the beauty of the tree shape, at this time, they should all be cut off, and then the diseased leaves and small leaves will be cut off to promote the concentration of nutrients.

2. Thinning pruning leaves:

After removing the yellow leaves of the iron tree, it is also necessary to thin the branches and leaves that are too long and too dense, and the branches and leaves that are too long are pruned in a short way, and the thin part of the dense branches is thinned off, and the specific method can be decided according to the shape of the tree.

3. Prune the roots

After 1-2 years of iron tree breeding, it is necessary to replace the potting soil once, and the roots should be reasonably pruned when changing the pot, and the yellowish and rotten parts should be cut off in time, and then the overly dense and long roots should be thinned to retain the same length and strong root system.

4. Precautions:

Because the branches and leaves of the iron tree are very hard, it is necessary to use sharpened scissors when pruning, and the knife edge should be wiped and disinfected with carbendazim before cutting, and then apply plant ash and other sterilizers to the wounds of the plants after cutting.

1. Cut off the leaves: The ornamental value of the iron tree potted plant is very high, the old leaves that appear at the bottom should be cut off, and the old leaves of the next year should also be cut off, so as to reduce the consumption of nutrients and maintain the beauty and beauty of the tree shape. In the process of growth, the diseased leaves, yellow leaves, and weak branches and leaves that may appear should also be removed, which can effectively benefit the growth in the later stage.

2. Thinning branches and leaves: In addition to removing the yellow leaves in time, it is also necessary to thinn the branches and leaves that are too long and too dense, and cut off some branches and leaves for too long branches and leaves, which should be decided according to the shape of the tree, which can be conducive to the growth of new leaves.

3. Pruning the roots: When the iron tree is raised for one or two years, it will be repotted once, combined with the repotting, the roots of the iron tree can be properly pruned, the rotten roots can be removed in time, and the rotten parts will be removed.

Cycads are also known as iron trees.

Anchovy. The name cycad is used more in the folk "iron tree", which is said to be named because of its high wood density, sinking when entering the water, and heavy as iron.

1) The growth is relatively slow, only 1 round of leaf clusters grow every year, whenever the new leaves are mature, the lower part of the old leaves are cut off, keep 2 3 rounds of leaves, do not need to prune often.

2) Don't prune too much when transplanting or repotting. When the leaves are damaged by pests and diseases, the natural environment is harsh and yellowing, dry up, should be cut off in time.

It is best to send a **, if the old leaves are yellow and unsightly, it is indoors for winter. It's okay to hinge them all out. It will grow again in the spring.

You can also hand over the bottom two layers of leaves. The state of reservation is good. When hing, you can leave 2 cm on the head of the iron tree.

Hope it helps.

Now is the time to prune, leaving the middle circle of leaves, and the rest from the base of the petiole to make it easier to grow new leaves.

Broadleaf cycads - conservation management.

Watering: During the summer growing season, the pot should be kept moist, but it should not be watered. In the middle of summer, when the temperature is high, the foliar water should be sprayed frequently to keep the leaf color bright green. In winter, the potting soil should be appropriately dry, if the potting soil is wet, it will lead to root rot.

Broad-leaved cycads. Fertilization: In the long and vigorous season, top dressing should be applied frequently, mainly nitrogen and potassium fertilizers. It is better to use rotten cake fertilizer water. Fertilization should pay attention to thin fertilizer and frequent application, and do not over-concentrate. In order to promote the dark green color of the leaves, an appropriate amount of ferrous sulfate solution can be added to the fertilizer.

Pruning: For the sake of beautiful posture, the leaves that are too dense or too long, as well as the yellow leaves, can be appropriately cut off to maintain the symmetry of the tree shape.

Turning pots: Turning pots once every 2 3 years, the time is suitable for spring 3 and 4 months. Combined with turning the pot and changing the pot, cut off the dead and bad roots, remove the old soil of 1 2 2 3, and replace it with fertile and loose new culture soil, so that the plant grows vigorously.

At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to the empty pelvic floor to facilitate ventilation and water permeability.

Pest control: cycads are dry and hard, and the leaves are hard, and there are fewer pests and diseases. There are mainly scale insects, which can be manually washed and insecticidal.

Sometimes yellowing of the leaves occurs, and it can be poured with l ferrous sulfate dilution. At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to the place, ventilation and light, cleanliness and hygiene, which can prevent the occurrence of pests and diseases. In the Yangtze River Basin, it should be put indoors in winter to prevent frost damage.

Iron trees (cycads) grow very slowly, generally only one round of new leaves per year. Therefore, pruning should not be excessive. When the new leaves are ripe every year, only the lower old leaves need to be cut off appropriately to keep the posture neat and quaint.

Just cut off the yellowed leaves.

There are many reasons for the yellowing of iron leaves;

First, if some old leaves are yellow, it is mostly caused by uneven drying and wetting of the potting soil. If the potting soil is too dry for a long time, the plant will not get water supply, and the leaves will dry up and turn yellow.

The second is that the leaves are harmed by scale insects, and some of the damaged leaves will turn yellow due to damage.

The third is the use of unrotted fertilizer or the application of too much fertilizer, which burns the root system and makes the leaves yellow. Corresponding rescue measures can be taken for the above reasons, such as timely elimination of pests and diseases; Balanced moisture**; For more serious yellow leaf phenomenon, the plant can be dug out of the pot, the yellow leaf can be removed, and the new soil can be replanted. If it is caused by too much fertilizer, the polluted fertilizer can be washed off by irrigation, and after planting with new soil, it will grow leaves again in a semi-shaded and ventilated environment.

Iron tree is a strong positive tree species, like the sun, should be placed in a place with strong sunlight for maintenance, if the sun is too fierce, should be properly shaded. Solve the problem of yellow leaves first and cut off the old yellow leaves. Be careful not to cut off the sprouts.
