When the preserved chrysanthemum grows, it becomes a drooping orchid. On the importance of picking the heart and topping the chrysanthemum

Hello, everyone. I am a plant, grass and insect. I love greening and growing flowers. When it comes to chrysanthemums, we naturally think of Tao Yuanming picking wild flowers by the fence. We accidentally see such a sentence as Nanshan. In the Dream of Red Mansions, we often see chrysanthemum poems. Up to now, there are a large number of chrysanthemum exhibitions around Double-ninth Day every year, and of course, there are also popular chrysanthemum tea. it can be seen that chrysanthemums have been loved since ancient times. Our ideal chrysanthemum should look like the following picture. Today, a netizen asked that when the preserved chrysanthemum grows, it becomes a hanging orchid. Looking at the picture sent, I can only say that it is important to pick the heart and top the chrysanthemum.

Netizens said that around April this year, I bought two chrysanthemums to plant, and they have always been well maintained, and the chrysanthemums are also very popular, but when I see that other people's chrysanthemums have many buds, why do my chrysanthemums seem to grow in vain? still hanging down like a hanging orchid, fixed with a pole for nothing, will it still blossom? Seeing the picture, I can only say that if you want the chrysanthemum to not only grow and lodge and blossom on time, it is necessary to pick the heart and promote the branches.

The picture above is the chrysanthemum seedlings bought by netizens, these two chrysanthemum seedlings are very good, because the root system determines everything, it is certain to see that such a good root system grows well in the later stage, but the following picture is what the chrysanthemum looks like now, and it looks like a hanging orchid, and if you look carefully, there is no bud, so the netizens are worried and depressed, why not see the bud when it is maintained so well?

As you can see, netizens have fixed the chrysanthemum seedlings with bamboo poles in order to prevent them from lodging. The chrysanthemum branches grow stout, which is considered to be well maintained. The only disadvantage is that they do not pick the heart and top at the right time. The heart is to promote the branch, and the top is to ensure the distribution of nutrition, while the chrysanthemum flower is at the top of the branch, so we should pay attention to the time of heart picking and topping.

It's a pity to see a few pots of chrysanthemums from netizens. Now it's September, and there are buds in normal maintenance. Netizens' lack of buds is caused by insufficient nutrition, but don't worry, there will be buds soon. It's just that it's a little late this year. If you pick the heart and hit the top now, you may not be able to see the flowers in the later stage. So, netizens' chrysanthemums can only be allowed to be normal this year, and they will be cut heavily after shedding. Then take the branches and cut them, and fight again next year.

Why do chrysanthemums pick their hearts and hit the top?

The purpose of chrysanthemum peeling and topping is to promote branching and nutrient distribution, in order to make more branches, we have to pick out a lot of branches, in order not to waste nutrition, let nutrients concentrated on the top flowers, we have to top to prevent overgrowth, this is easy to understand.

When does the chrysanthemum pick the heart and hit the top?

We generally choose to pick the heart of the chrysanthemum for the first time after the chrysanthemum seedling has six leaves, to promote the branch, and then to pick the heart again after the branch has ten leaves, usually after several times, the crown width of the chrysanthemum has come out, so don't pick the heart, just cover the flowerpot, in order not to grow, we can hit the top around June. Then let the chrysanthemum from vegetative growth to reproductive growth, later normal maintenance can get the chrysanthemum pot we want.

How to deal with these chrysanthemums for netizens?

For this pot of chrysanthemum from netizens, look at the picture below. I suggest picking the heart to hit the top when there are six leaves, but now the lodging is serious and it is almost time to bloom, so it is not recommended to pick the heart and hit the top. Let's trim the cuttings after blooming this season, and remember to pick the heart and hit the top next year.

Finally, plant plants and insect suggestions on the conservation of chrysanthemums: if we want chrysanthemums not only to grow and lodge, but also bloom on time, we should pick the heart of chrysanthemums and promote branching, otherwise they will grow as seriously as hanging orchids. Of course, in addition to pruning, nutrition is very important to provide nutrition on time.
