Pruning, picking, controlling water, fertilizing, pest and disease prevention, Plum stump potted plants are traditional ornamental plants in our country. They have beautiful posture and gorgeous colors, and are deeply loved by flower friends. The trunks of some plum stump potted plants are too high, which affects their ornamental effects. This article will introduce several techniques for dwarfing plum stump potted plants, allowing you to easily create mini bonsai. Pruning is a key step in dwarfing plum tree stumps in potted plants. During the pruning process, the following points should be noted: 1. Keep the main stem of the stump and prune it to an appropriate height, generally 40-60 cm.
2. Keep appropriate amount of lateral branches to make the shape of the stump more beautiful. When pruning lateral branches, pay attention to retaining some thick branches to facilitate subsequent growth.
3. Cut off sick and weak branches, crossed branches, and inward branches to keep the stumps ventilated and transparent. Tipping is an effective dwarfing method and is suitable for potted plum tree stumps that are growing vigorously. During the growth process, the buds at the top are removed at the right time to promote the tillering of the stumps and form a multi-layered crown.
1. During the growing season of plum tree stump potted plants, pick your heart every 20-30 days.
2. When picking, the top 1-2 leaves should be retained to facilitate nutrient accumulation. Water-controlled plum tree stump potted plants require high water, but excessive watering will cause the stump to grow too vigorously and affect the dwarfing effect. The following points should be paid attention to during the watering process: 1. Control the watering frequency and keep the soil slightly moist.
2. During the period of vigorous growth, appropriately reduce watering to promote dwarfing of tree stumps. Fertilization is an auxiliary means to dwarf plum stump potted plants. During the fertilization process, the following points should be paid attention to: 1. Select fertilizers suitable for plum stump potted plants, such as organic fertilizers, compound fertilizers, etc.
2. When fertilizing, the principle of "applying thin fertilizer frequently" should be followed to avoid excessive fertilization.
3. During the vigorous growth period, appropriately increase the application amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to promote dwarfing of tree stumps. Pest and pest control are the main factors affecting the dwarfing of plum tree stumps in potted plants. During the maintenance process, the following points should be paid attention to: 1. Regularly inspect tree stumps and promptly control pests and diseases discovered.
2. Use low-toxicity and low-residue pesticides to avoid damage to tree stumps.
The dwarfing of plum tree stumps and potted plants is a systematic project that requires us to maintain them from many aspects. Through pruning, picking, water control, fertilization and pest control, we can easily create mini bonsai to add a touch of beauty to the home environment.
