Pinched and pruning To houseplants have a beautiful view of lush well-formed shrub or small tree, must from the outset to manage their growth, give them the desired shape. Must first decide whether we're going to grow this young plant as a bush or tree stam. To give form kronistogo trees, such as nightshade, proceed as follows: first, the young plants remove all side shoots, and when the main shoot (ie, the future tree trunk) reaches a height of 20-30 cm, its tip pinch (ie, peck nails). After appearing pinched lateral branches; in order to be developed evenly around the stem, the plant is turning to light one or the other party. When the branches reach about 20 cm long each, they also pinch, as new branches this technique is repeated 2-3 times. For the formation of a bush in the young plants reached a height of 5-6 cm, peck the tip of the main shoot to cause the development of side shoots from the underlying kidney disease. Lateral shoots reaching a height of 10-15 cm in the same pinch. When out of young plants formed a dense bush of curly, must be periodically cut out weak shoots and directed inside the crown twigs nibbled at the beginning of their appearance. Adult flowering plants (fuchsia, geraniums, roses), cut each spring. If they wintered in a cool room and stood through the winter without leaves, the crop is two weeks before the transplant, before resuming growth. Crop produce as sharp as a razor knife to cut surface was perfectly smooth. Slices should be done on the kidney. Place slices sprinkled with powdered charcoal. First, cut the branches, dry and weak, as well as inwardly the crown, leaving 3 to 10 most powerful branches that are pruned by about 1 / 3 of their length. The top of the remaining kidney should be directed not into the crown and outward. Do roses throughout the summer until the first cut of strong buds per branch faded; while roses bloom almost continuously. Garter. Some potted plants need support. Flowering plants, all of whose branches are directed towards the window, it's best to give support in the form of a letter H, with one or two perekladinkami. Support in the form of various grids or stretched along the sash cords needed creepers. Plants with poor trunk support is given in the form of a peg, stick in the ground near the trunk on the side from which the plant has grown smaller, and so that the pointed end of the peg reached the bottom of the pot. Tied stems Mochalov, but not twine, wool, ribbons or thread, as all the materials cut into the stem. Not tied up tight, and free, so that the trunk of the plants have not touched a peg, letting Mochalov crosswise between the trunk and a peg (in a figure-eight) and tied knot in the peg, rather than on the stem. |
