How to prune the new buds of Chinese roses that are sprouting
Since learning to prune Chinese roses, this pot of mine is full of new buds at the top of the branches. After simply fertilizing it, you can see that there are many leaves that are large and numerous. Many beginners don't understand how to prune them to allow them to continue growing new buds.
There is a method to pruning; don't prune blindly. Blind pruning makes it difficult to grow new buds. As long as you learn to prune this way, you can also prune your own Chinese roses at home. This will make your Chinese roses full of new buds.
1. Pruning
If you want to prune the plant shape, you can give it a proper pruning. If you don't want to prune for shape, you can still do some pruning. When pruning, be sure to distinguish between inner and outer buds.
Why distinguish between inner and outer buds? Some gardening friends only leave inner buds and not outer ones, which can only result in excessive growth. This growth will be inside, forming an unattractive shape. Only leaving outer buds and not inner ones will make the plant's shape look better because the branches it produces are numerous and attractive.
When we prune, we keep these outer buds and cut the inner ones. You can see, this is the inner bud, and this is the outer bud. When we cut, we keep the outer bud and cut off the inner one. As long as you learn to prune your Chinese roses this way, they will be full and lush. Therefore, during pruning, you must know how to prune.
2. Fertilizing
After pruning, in order to consolidate the plant's roots for normal growth, you must promptly fertilize it. The best fertilizers are good-quality organic ones. My pot is covered with organic fertilizers like dried and matured rough fiber sheep manure, which releases nutrients slowly and contains a lot of organic matter, making it suitable for acid-loving plants.
If you don't mind the trouble, you can buy a bottle of EM Original Essence. This EM Original Essence contains amino acids and protein components, which can be used to ferment peanut shells, cake fertilizers, and some fruit peels. You can mix a bottle of mineral water with a capful of EM Original Essence and shake it well. Then, feed it once every 15 to 20 days.
3. Light
After fertilizing, place it in a well-ventilated area with scattered light to let it grow new buds and leaves slowly.
This is how I took care of this pot. As long as the method is correct, it can grow new buds and leaves quickly. In a short period, which is less than a month, it has already grown very well, waiting to bloom.
