When is the best time to prune? Months and months of pruning

Yueji is not only a "medicine jar", but also needs to be pruned frequently, when is the best time to prune? In fact, pruning can be carried out most of the time, but the degree and purpose of pruning are different. Let's follow Poqi.com to find out.

Moon Season Flower (details).

Let's first talk about the winter pruning that is relatively strong, when winter comes, after the leaves fall (or after the frost, the leaves turn red), you can start pruning, shrubs are generally re-pruned, pruned to 1 3 places of plant height. In this way, more new shoots will sprout and more flowers will bloom in the next spring.

So when is the moon season pruned during the growing season?

Generally, we can choose to prune at the end of August to the beginning of September, of course, the pruning at this time is different from the winter, which is to make the next year's flowers better, and the growing season is to make the autumn flowers bloom better. At this time, it is suitable to prune the flowering branches lightly, generally pruning at 2 3 places of the height of the tree, keeping as many leaves as possible, because the leaves are the factories of photosynthesis.

In addition to the above two times of pruning, in fact, there are other times in the cultivation process that can also be properly pruned, such as the moon season blind branch pruning, which is when to find out, when to prune, the earlier the better.

Of course, pruning can also be carried out during the flowering period of the month, at this time, it is generally necessary to thin the buds to remove too many flower buds, not the more flower buds, the better, because the nutrients are too scattered, which will lead to poor flowering.

After flowering, it is also necessary to prune in time, flower friends pruning is generally to cut off the residual flowers in time, here what flower friends need to understand is that the pruning of residual flowers should cut off all the branches above the first group of 5 leaflets under the flower.

The moon flower generally needs to be pruned many times a year, so that it can bloom more, bloom well, and grow better.

Generally, pruning is carried out once a year in December, when the flowers and leaves fall, at this time, it is re-pruned, only 15cm of the plant is kept, and the diseased branches on the plant are cut off at the same time.

The second is to prune after flowering. It usually blooms for the first time and can be pruned in May. After the second flowering, pruning is carried out in June and July.

After the third flowering, pruning is carried out in August. When the flower buds grow, it is also necessary to remove the flower buds in time to make them bloom with sufficient nutrients and be able to bloom in batches.

The first pruning can be done around May, the second in June-July, the third after August, and in December in winter. The pruning time is different, and the pruning method is also different.

Trimming Method:

Prune around May, mainly to prune off the broken flowers, and keep 4-5 buds when pruning. If the growth is not very robust, then only 1-2 buds need to be kept.

In the month, you can cut it lightly, and you can cut it from the position of the second leaf under the failed flower, and the pruning should not be too large. In addition, some of the long branches are also to be cut off.

The third pruning is to make the plant grow more evenly, keep 2-3 buds on the branches, and cut off cross-growth and branches that are too dense to make the plant more breathable and beautiful.

When the plant is dormant, it should be pruned heavily to cut off branches that are thin, dry, and infested by pests and diseases.

(1) Wipe the buds. In spring, the young shoots that grow too dense should be removed in time, and it is advisable to keep 2 or 3 strong buds on one main branch. The buds start in the spring and continue until the winter dormancy, and can be done as often as needed.

2) Pick buds. Picking buds varies depending on the breed. For the moon season of single flowering, the side buds can be removed, and only the middle main bud can be retained.

For multi-flowered varieties with multiple flowers, the main buds and overly dense small flower buds can be removed, so that the flowering period is concentrated and the flower size is uniform. For miniature moons, don't pick the buds, but let them grow naturally. For the newly planted young plant, when it first forms flower buds, it is best to remove them in time to accumulate nutrients and promote the development of new branches, which can make the young plant grow faster and lay a good foundation for the formation of a low-branched tree shape.

role="Figure prunes the remnants of the moon (3) and removes the remnants of the flowers. Immediately after the flowering, the residual flowers should be pruned, leaving only the axillary bud of the second leaflet compound leaf under the flower, so that it can draw new branches. If you don't cut off the residual flowers and peduncles in time, the axillary buds close to the residual flowers will sprout weak branches, consume nutrients, destroy the shape of the tree, and even if you can produce flowers, they are mostly some deformed small flowers.

Let me tell you a little bit more about my own experience, I never prune the moon season that I plant in the flower pond, I like to see them stretch out naturally. Usually, after the flowers are gone, I only cut off the residual flowers, so that they do not bear fruit; The dead leaves are cut off as soon as they are seen.

Again, for reference)

Pruning in the moon season, first cut off dense branches, dead branches, and then cut off old and weak branches, leaving 2-3 outward growing buds in order to four sides; Properly cut short particularly strong branches, in order to strengthen the growth of weak branches, when the new branches grow too dense in summer, to carry out thinning pruning, after each batch of flowers, cut off the upper part of the branches connected with the residual flowers in time, so that the knots do not consume nutrients, retain the middle and lower full branches, and promote the early blooming of new branches. The moon season is very strict on the water requirements, not too wet and too dry, too dry will be withered, and too wet will hurt the roots and leaves.

Month pruning.

In winter, the moon flower is generally pruned in December, at this time, it is mainly to prune its old branches and weak branches, dead branches and residual branches, etc., leaving a strong trunk, which can avoid the consumption of excess nutrients, and is also conducive to its wintering, and is also conducive to its germination of new branches in the spring of the next year.

2. Spring pruning.

When its buds begin to grow, you need to pick a well-shaped bud to leave, and then the rest of the side buds are all cut off, so that only one flower grows out of each branch, so that its flowers will be more gorgeous and beautiful.

3. Prune after flowering.

After the flowering of the moon flower, it is also necessary to prune, at this time, the main thing is to cut off the residual flowers and weak, crossed, overlapping branches, which can reduce the consumption of nutrients, and the ventilation and light transmittance of the plant can also be enhanced, which is conducive to the next flowering, and can also avoid plant disease and insect pests.

4. Precautions.

Pay attention to the branches of the moon season are relatively hard, so when pruning, use a special gardening pruning knife, such scissors are sharper, can make the wound of the plant a little smoother, after pruning, you also need to do a good job of maintenance management, to avoid splashing water on its wound, otherwise the plant is prone to rot.

Autumn pruning is best.

The flowers are pruned in autumn, around August. Prune the vigorous branches during its growth period, especially some side branches, the rapid growth rate affects the growth and development of the main branches, so after pruning, keep the good branch and leaf density of the moon flower.

Prune the overlapping branches and leaves in time to keep the whole plant in a state of growth balance. 2-3 shoots can be retained on each branch, and the overall shape of the pruning can be carried out to make it have a certain ornamental value.

The specific trimmed parts of the month

The reason for pruning is to cut off the residual branches of the moon flowers first, to avoid excessive growth, crossing, etc., and cut off all the long and thin branches, otherwise these branches will absorb more nutrients and affect the normal growth of the moon flowers.

If you prune around May, you can prune off the broken flowers, and pay attention to the 4-5 buds that can be retained when pruning. If the growth is not particularly robust at this time, you can have a little less in retention, 1-2 buds are sufficient.

Seasonal pruning tips

When pruning, the main thing is to cut off the second leaf part under the failed flower, pay attention to the pruning amplitude is best not too large, and some long branches also need to be pruned. The third pruning is to make the plant start to grow more evenly, as long as 2-3 buds are left on the branches, and cross-growth and too dense branches need to be cut off, so that the plant can look more breathable and beautiful.

1. Pruning time.

Flowers are also essential for pruning, usually the best sowing in spring and autumn, but it is best to prune in spring and autumn, and prune after flowering, so that the peanuts can grow better, so that the flowers are more colorful.

2. Pruning precautions.

It is best to use special gardening shears when pruning, and it is best to prune the branches obliquely every time you prune, which can prevent the cut from being infected by bacteria, so that the cut mouth suffers from disease, and the pruning should also be avoided in rainy days, otherwise it is easy to rot the cut of the moon flower.

3. Post-cutting management.

After each pruning of the month, it is necessary to spray carbendazim and other agents at the cutting place for disinfection, and stop watering and fertilizing, and place it in a cool and ventilated place to carefully breed, and wait for a week after the cut will heal naturally, and it can be moved to a place with full sunlight for normal cultivation to promote more flowering of the moon flower.

4. Propagation by cuttings.

Each time you prune the branches of the moon flower, you can use stronger branches, keep the leaves at the upper end of the branches, soak the cut in carbendazim or potassium permanganate solution for about 3 minutes, and then insert the treated branches into the loose soil, compact the soil and place it in a cool place, and wait for the branches to take root and sprout.

During the growth period of the moon season, it is necessary to wipe the buds, beat the buds, remove the residue and other work. Wipe buds is to remove the young shoots that grow too much in spring, except for 2-3 on the main branch. Bud is to remove the rest of the side buds except for the main bud in the middle.

Both of these measures have the same purpose, to remove useless waste shoots and miscellaneous branches, avoid nutrient waste, and let nutrients be supplied to the main branch in a concentrated manner, so that the plant grows quickly, the branches are strong, and the flowers are large, plump and bright. To remove the residual flowers, it is to cut off the flowers and the two compound leaves below them in time when the flowers are broken. The purpose is to avoid several axillary buds near the flowers from germinating weak branches and producing deformed small flowers, which not only wastes nutrients, but also destroys the beauty of the flower shape.

During the dormant period of the moon season, it is also pruned. The pruning time is around the Spring Festival, mainly for more than 2 years of large trees from the base of the pruning of diseased branches, dead branches, weak branches, overlapping branches, cross branches. In addition, different degrees of pruning are carried out according to the varieties and characteristics of the moon season and the growth situation

For plants with poor growth, only 2-3 main branches are retained, which can be cut off 2 3, called"Strong shear"；For varieties with normal growth, correct plant shape and frequent flowering, you can cut off about 1 2, which is called"Medium cut"；For plants that grow vigorously and bloom frequently, only 1 3 are cut off in sections, which is called"Weak shear"。

The pruning of potted plants is different from that of large trees: plants that are too small should not be pruned; If it is less than 25 cm high, cut off 1 3; 25-35 cm cut off 1 2;More than 35 cm can be cut off 2 3. For the overwintering season in the open field, in order to prevent cold and drying, and avoid plant injury, you can temporarily not prune in winter and prune again in spring.

Seasonal flower pruning time.

If the pruning is done after flowering, its role is to help the plants re-bloom. The function of normal pruning is to prevent the consumption of nutrients, avoid the loss of nutrients, and promote its better growth. Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to prune the moon in spring and autumn every year, and the suitable pruning time is May and August-September, because the temperature in these two periods is more suitable, and the plants can resume growth as soon as possible after pruning.

Moonflowers need to be pruned several times.

The moon season usually needs to be pruned three times a year, and the effect of each pruning is different. It is advisable to prune and propagate in the best season for rose growth and flowering, from April to May in the first half of the year to September and October in the second half of the year.

Pruning method of moon flowers.

When pruning the monthly sales letter, the first thing to do is to cut off the exposed branches with pests and diseases, as well as the branches that are too dense, crossed, and dry, so as to promote better plant growth.

Precautions for pruning seasonal flowers.

It is best to use sharp scissors when trimming the moon. Scissors specially designed for gardening are best, and it is best to disinfect them before use. In addition, it is best to cut diagonally when pruning, so that it will not rot and it is more convenient to prune.
