How to pick the heart of a rubber tree

1. Principle:

In order to make its lateral branches germinate faster or more easily, we need to remove the top buds from the branches or cut off the whole top. Only when the uppermost buds of the main branches are removed, can the advantage of growing at the top be eliminated. Only in this way can we better promote the germination and growth of lateral buds.

2. Practice:

1, generally wait until the trunk grows to the right height, this height is about 30 to 50 centimeters high, we can make it only upright growth state can be changed, this can promote the growth of other buds.

2. Generally speaking, the buds closer to the top of the branches are more likely to germinate, so we can leave the nearest 2 or 3 buds, so that when the lateral branches grow out, the whole tree will show the shape of a cup or Y sub-shape. Heart picking is easy to carry out, but height control is extremely important. If the height selected is too high, it will cause the shape of the whole tree to be heavy at the top and light at the bottom, which will greatly affect its ornamental.

3. This height can be chosen according to the diameter of the flowerpot, as close as possible, but keep in mind that it would rather be lower than too high.

4. If we are facing some tree trunks that have already shown an upright state, we can save it by cutting short or carving buds, so that the bald part below it can have the growth of side branches, and at the same time, it will change the angle of the main branch and improve its shape.

3. Note:

In general, the problem of heart picking is not too complicated, as long as you follow the above steps, flower friends do not have to worry too much about harming the plant.
