The method of dwarfing Flos Lonicerae

Honeysuckle, also known as honeysuckle, is a very famous plant Chinese herbal medicine. Honeysuckle is well-known because of its special effect of clearing away heat and reducing fire. the ingredients in almost heat-clearing and fire-lowering medicine are likely to have honeysuckle, and the human body absorbs the active ingredients of honeysuckle very well. Because the rhizome of honeysuckle is relatively thin and its growth rate is relatively fast, its tree shape is difficult to control and control, so we have to dwarf honeysuckle, so Shuai Shuai will tell you how to dwarf honeysuckle.

☆ what is honeysuckle dwarfing? ☆

The dwarfing of honeysuckle is because its rhizome is too slender and the overall tree shape is difficult to control, which will cause the honeysuckle to have longer nodes and fewer flowers, so the concept of dwarfing honeysuckle appears in order to solve this problem. so let's move on to the detailed steps:

1. Control water and fertilizer

First of all, it is found that the dwarfing of honeysuckle should control the water and fertilizer of honeysuckle on weekdays, and the amount of fertilizer and water should be reduced now, and the amount of water and fertilizer should be controlled to reduce each time. Especially in spring, there will be a lot of rainy days, so we should avoid the rain. In addition, we should also reduce the frequency of watering, because the humidity of the air will certainly increase on rainy days. In order to achieve the effect of dwarfing, it is necessary to shorten the internodes, increase the number of flowers before the flower buds grow, and reasonably apply nitrogen fertilizer to the plants during the period when the branches stop growing and during the budding period. this can make the flowers big and bright.

2. Change the basin at the right time

The interval between changing pots of honeysuckle is one or two years longer than that of ordinary pots, like ordinary potted flowers only once a year or two, while honeysuckle has to change pots every three or four years, because the interval between changing pots is too long, so the frequency of changing pots of honeysuckle will become less accordingly, and the root absorption function of honeysuckle will naturally decrease, making the plant more aging, thus alleviating the overall growth rate of the plant. By making the whole tree shape more balanced, the local rhizome of honeysuckle will become thicker, not longer and slender, and the whole plant will be dwarfed, thus making the flowers more luxuriant.

3. Growth inhibitor shoot control

In addition to physical methods to inhibit dwarfing, we can also use chemical means, yes, drug administration, we can use some commonly used growth inhibitors to control its growth. When honeysuckle grows to 5 cm, it can be sprayed with paclobutrazol and B9 solution or dwarftin, which can have an effect, and can inhibit the excessive growth of stems several times in a row and dwarf the tree as a whole.

4. Dwarfing, shaping and pruning

Honeysuckle can be dwarfed at the beginning of its pot planting, pruning it for shaping, so that regular pruning can make its local branches grow thicker and thicker, and will not grow in a slender trend. and it is found that very dense and sturdy branches and buds should be reduced, so that more nutrients can be freed for the growth of flower buds and coring the top. Always follow a rule when trimming long and short to make it look more hierarchical.

5. Long daylight treatment

Because the growth habit of honeysuckle is light-loving, it is necessary to ensure adequate light while dwarfing, do a good job of ventilation, prevent the excessive growth of stems and vines, preferably under the condition of all-day sunshine, and give priority to scattered light, which can make the effect of dwarfing better, bloom more, and prolong the flowering period.

The above is the method of dwarfing honeysuckle, have you learned it? Honeysuckle will blossom less if it is not dwarfed, so we must learn this skill! It is very helpful for the number of honeysuckle blossoms raised by everyone. If you want to know more related information, please continue to follow the pro-agriculture network!
