Topping should be done when the plants grow to a height of 1 to 1.5 meters. Timely topping is beneficial to the branches and can also prevent excessive growth. During the growth period, trim side branches and be sure to retain two or three branches and leaves to avoid affecting flowering. After the fruit is harvested, old and yellow leaves should be cut off to save nutrients and promote recovery as soon as possible. In addition, pay attention to disinfecting the pruning tools to avoid infection. Change the maintenance method slightly after pruning, and then manage it normally after recovery.
1. Plant topping
1. Plant topping
Topping should be done when the plant reaches a certain height. It is recommended to do it when it reaches 1 to 1.5 meters. Timely topping can promote the growth of more branches, prevent leggy growth, and effectively control plant shape, especially for potted plant maintenance.
2. Prune side branches
Usually, lateral branches need to be pruned in the early stages of growth. Be careful not to cut them again and keep two or three branches so that they will not affect growth and flowering. This method will also need to be followed when new branches and buds grow later.
3. Pruning after harvesting
After the fruits are harvested, they should also be pruned in time to cut off old and yellow leaves to save nutrient consumption. In addition, the branches should also be pruned. Proper pruning can promote the plant to recover as soon as possible, and is conducive to ventilation, light and ventilation, which is beneficial to growth.
IV. Precautions
When pruning, pay attention to disinfecting pruning tools to avoid wound infection, which will affect plant growth. In addition, you should pay attention to slightly changing the maintenance method after pruning, and wait for the plant to recover before managing it normally.
