Now the temperature has dropped, sweet-scented osmanthus to the growth period, this time to hurry to wave operation: the pinch, the cutting, to October, the number of flowers can definitely double! Huahua will tell you how to operate it today!

Pinch off the terminal bud-double the number of flowers

Why pinch off the top bud?

The terminal bud of the plant will grow first, the lateral bud will be inhibited, and there are two lateral buds under each terminal bud. after removing the terminal bud, it can promote the growth of lateral buds, increase the branches and double the number of flowers naturally.

Topping skill

Cut off the 2-4 leaves at the top of the branch directly and keep the 2 leaves below.

After cutting off, you will see that the following two lateral buds will sprout slowly.

You can also cut off the apical bud directly after it has grown, as shown below:

Remove cross branches-reduce nutrient consumption

What is a cross branch?

Branches are generally toward the outside of the trunk, divergent growth, but some small branches will grow inward, this is the "cross branch".

Why cut off the cross branches?

The light inside the branches is weak, so such branches cannot blossom and have no "future". They will only waste nutrients and interfere with the development of other branches, so they must be cut off and leave "resources" to flowering branches.

In addition, twigs, weak twigs, sullen twigs, parallel branches and so on should be cut off to ensure a large amount of flowers while the plant shape is beautiful.

Increase fertilizer and water-- blossom more fragrant and colourful

1. Fertilization

Fertilize immediately after pruning. If you have applied fertilizer before pruning, you can not apply it.

Phosphorus and potassium fertilizer should be applied before flowering. Because the fluidity of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer in the soil is relatively poor, we can dig a deep 4~5cm pit along the periphery of the flowerpot, sprinkle the fertilizer into it, and cover the soil once in January to February.

2. Watering

Sweet-scented osmanthus watering should be based on the principle of "dry and wet". According to the dry and wet soil, the seeds should be watered every 1-2 days, often watering the foliage to keep the air moist.

3. Light: sweet-scented osmanthus likes light. The more light it has, the more flowers it blossoms. After the weather turns cool, it can keep the light throughout the day.

Such as sweet-scented osmanthus, chrysanthemum, begonia, a string of red is also such pruning and maintenance, or even a small repair rose, but also can bloom another wave of flowers!

Flower friends, have you learned everything?

Share it with your family and friends.

Autumn flower appreciation depends on this wave of operation!
