The heart picking of Ping an tree is generally carried out in spring and autumn, because spring and autumn are its peak growth period, after picking the heart, more lateral buds and branches can sprout in time. When the temperature is kept at about 20 °C, we can remove the tip and axillary buds of the main branch, which can make the plant lose its apical growth advantage, thus achieve the purpose of controlling the height of the plant shape and prevent the main branch from growing too high and destroying the plant shape. After the plant loses its apical growth advantage, the nutrition will be dispersed to the lateral branches, which will not only sprout more lateral branches, but also make other lateral branches grow more evenly.

Through the heart-picking treatment of potted Ping an tree in time, the growth state of the plant is often much better than that of simple pruning. But the heart-picking work can not be carried out blindly, in addition to the need to grasp the best time to pick the heart, the method of operation is also very important. Next, let's take a look at the heart-picking process of Ping an Tree (diagram) with Hua Youjun.

The heart-picking diagram of Ping an tree

1. Preparatory work

First of all, we need to move the potted safe tree to a spacious and bright place, so that it is easier for us to observe and carry on the next step of heart-picking treatment. Because the more spacious the space is, the brighter the light is, it is easier for us to examine the pot as a whole, and it is easier for us to find the main branch and other auxiliary branches that need to be coring, so as to avoid omission. At the same time, you also need to prepare all the tools you may use to pick the core, such as special branch shears.

2. Determine the location

Coring is the same as ordinary pruning, it can not be carried out at will, because once the branches that need to be retained in the direction are treated with coring, it will not only cause the loss of branches and make the shape of potted plants imperfect, but also affect the growth of plants, thus destroying the balance of branches. In general, it is necessary to look down from the top of the pot to find the part that needs to be picked out, choose the first axillary bud at the top of the main branch and the leaf part above, and then cut it off.

3. Coring treatment

After selecting the parts that need to be removed, we can use the pruning tool to cut off the tip and axillary buds of the main branch. However, it is suggested that the branches and shears should be disinfected and sterilized in advance to avoid wound infection after heart removal. And cut off the top in one step to avoid leaving damaged or incomplete, which is not conducive to wound healing, but also prone to infection. Of course, if it is relatively easy to deal with the top, we can also directly pinch it off with our fingers, but we still need to keep the wound as flat as possible.

4. Post-harvest management

After dealing with all the parts of the potted safe tree that need to be plucked, put the potted plant in a cool and ventilated place as far as possible, of course, you can also receive some scattered light, but to avoid direct sunlight, otherwise it is easy to cause some damage to the wound left after picking the heart. Because after heart removal, the wound shows a cracked state, if the light is too strong, it is easy to cause sap loss, so that part of the wound wilt, wilt phenomenon. However, in addition to shading, rain protection measures should be taken, and normal water and fertilizer management can not be restored until the wound has dried.
