How to prune Yushu?

Yushu is a Sedum plant, its leaves grow fat and thick, very oily green. Generally, if it is cultivated into an old pile, it has a very special charm and looks good. Home maintenance is very simple, but we should cultivate it into an old pile and make its whole branch beautiful. Pruning is essential if it is used as a large green plant or bonsai. Only after our proper pruning can it be cultivated.

If we want to prune Yushu, we must master its growing season, because it is in the fast-growing season. After you prune it, its wounds will heal quickly and its lateral buds will grow quickly. If it is pruned in the slow-growing or dormant season, it will cause its wound to shrink back, and even cause its leaves to fall off, making it impossible to germinate. Therefore, the best season for pruning is spring and autumn, usually in summer.

Pruning is essential in the growth process. For example, the seedlings we just cut have only one or two branches with terminal buds. If they are not pruned, they will grow these two buds directly, which will grow very long and the whole plant will be ugly. Our pruning method is simple. For our Yushu bonsai, if it looks ugly, we will first make a model of it according to the shape of the whole plant.

First, cut out a rough body. When pruning, you can leave leaves or no leaves, but it is best to leave leaves. If leaves are left, they can carry out photosynthesis, which can make roots grow well and germinate faster. If leaves are not preserved, its branches can also carry out photosynthesis, but the speed of bud and leaves will be slower. After trimming a rough shape directly, we can water it normally, fertilize it normally and make it germinate quickly. At this time, it will quickly grow multiple buds.

After his buds grow, we will leave some according to the shape of the whole plant and wipe off the excess. When the remaining buds grow tall and grow to five or six pairs of leaves, we will directly cut off the top of it to make the remaining trunk thicken and harden quickly. After the remaining trunk thickens and hardens, it will germinate again from this branch quickly, so that it will grow and be trimmed until it is topped. Finally, the whole plant will flourish and grow into a shape, and the leaves will block the place. At that time, the whole plant will be very beautiful, so we can stop pruning it.

This is the way to prune, and that's what you mean. You can actually do it then. Yushu pruning can do this. Remember to keep up with the water and fertilizer when pruning, so as to grow fast. Watering is essential. Generally, when the soil is dry, water it in time. If fertilizer is used, the multi-element or nitrogen content is high, and it is absorbed quickly, and other elements are not missing. In order to grow and maintain quickly, it must be placed in the most sunny place, which is essential in the growing season. The more sunlight, the thicker the stem and the thicker the leaves grow. If there is no light, branches will grow thin and long, leaves will grow thin and shallow, and branches will sag and break easily.
