How to prune Kimbian ruoxiang
Let me share with you how to prune Kimbian ruoxiang and the pruning methods and techniques of Kimbian ruoxiang in terms of floral knowledge. The following editor will answer in detail for you.
The flowering period of Kimbian ruoxiang is generally around the Spring Festival, and the flowering period is relatively long, usually about 1-2 months. Because the temperature in winter is low, the plant's metabolism will also be relatively slow. Xiao Zheng has shared with everyone about Kimbian ruoxiang many times before, including its flowering care and flowering time.
What Xiao Zheng wants to share with you today is that his Kimbian ruoxiang flowers have already faded. How should we care for it after the flowers fade?
The first and most important step is pruning. We first clear away the faded flower buds and then prune according to our own plant shape, or use a more general method, which is to count down one pair of leaves from the flower receptacle and cut them directly. Pruning is to avoid unnecessary consumption of nutrients, allowing nutrients to be supplied more concentratedly. Kimbian ruoxiang is very resistant to pruning, and even if 2-3 pairs of leaves are pruned after flowering, it won't matter. We can completely do it according to our preferences, and after pruning, it can sprout more lateral buds.
After pruning, we need to supplement nutrients for it, which is fertilization. If nutrients are not supplemented in time at this moment, it will cause the color of new buds and old leaves to turn yellow because the flowering period consumes most of its nutrients. If not supplemented in time, it will cause a deficiency of fertilizer. We can apply a balanced compound fertilizer with nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium on the surface of the potting soil, usually 1 gram spoon for this type of flower pot.

Spring, the season of warm weather and blooming flowers, is approaching. Fertilization is still very important in the maintenance of ruoxiang. When the weather stabilizes, we can apply thin fertilizers frequently, giving 1-2 times of a small amount of compound fertilizer per month to help the plant grow better. If properly maintained, it might even bloom again in spring. However, do not apply too much fertilizer because Kimbian ruoxiang has fleshy roots, and excessive fertilizer can easily cause root burn.
Watering in spring should also be noted to keep the soil dry and then water. Although Kimbian ruoxiang has many leaves, its transpiration is not significant. Therefore, watering should only be done when the soil is completely dry, otherwise, excessive watering can easily cause root rot and lead to yellowing and falling of leaves.
The unique advantage of spring is that the sun is bright but not too strong. Although ruoxiang is relatively shade-tolerant, in spring, we can place ruoxiang in a well-lit outdoor area for maintenance, allowing it to perform photosynthesis. At this time, the growth rate of new leaves will be very fast.
The above is a detailed explanation of how to prune Kimbian ruoxiang, the pruning methods, and techniques. I hope this article can provide you with help in green plant management!
