Family breeding of flowers has become an indispensable part of the life of many friends, raising some green plants in the balcony and living room at home, that is, it can purify the air and green the room, and it can also let people watch and relieve fatigue.

In the indoor spacious living room to put a variety of larger flowers potted plants, very reflect the host's taste and bearing, today is to talk about a lot of friends like the rubber tree. Rubber tree is a common woody flower, the leaves are green and fat, feel very textured, the plant is evergreen all the year round, and needs to be cultured indoors in winter in the north. Rubber trees are very good family flowers, and they are not picky about the breeding environment and conditions. But there is one point, for woody flowers such as rubber trees, if they want to have more lateral buds and grow more rounded plants, they need to pay attention to methods and skills in daily breeding.

Key skills: trim the top buds of plants at the beginning of summer and the end of summer to remove top advantage!

Pruning is a must if you want the rubber tree to grow more lateral buds. For woody flowers such as rubber trees, the top advantage is very obvious, in fact, the top branches absorb most of the nutrients, grow taller and taller, the growth of lateral branches is inhibited slowly, and finally there will be a slender depression of plant growth.

Therefore, the rubber tree was pruned in early summer and late summer to remove the tip dominance, pruned from the position of three leaves of the top bud with scissors, so that the nutrition of the plant stopped being transported to the top break, and nutrients were evenly distributed to a lateral bud to promote the growth of lateral buds. This way of pruning should also add a reasonable pruning time, the best time is in early summer and late summer, because early summer is the period of rapid growth of plants, and after pruning at the end of summer, it is also a period of rapid growth of plants. after pruning in these two periods, new buds grow rapidly. The basic scissors can burst three new branches in a week.

Of course, in addition to pruning, for rubber trees to grow well, in addition to pruning, you need to pay attention to the following two points in daily maintenance:

Fertilization:

After pruning, if the rubber tree wants to grow quickly, it must supplement fertilizer and have enough nutrients to grow new buds. It is recommended to apply quick-acting compound fertilizer with obvious effect and sufficient fertilizer effect.

two。 Lighting:

Rubber trees like light and are kept indoors, preferably in a sunny place. For example, the southward balcony can receive sufficient light in the morning to help new buds sprout.
