1、 Pruning during growth

1. During the continuous growth of Phyllostachys pubescens, some branches will wither due to metabolism. In the face of such withered branches, they should be cut off in time. If not cut, it will reduce the beauty and consume more nutrients

2. If the maintenance environment is not suitable or the management is improper, there will be dead leaves and yellow leaves on the plant. Therefore, proper pruning is conducive to the better growth of the plant

3. Some branches will grow crazily due to maintenance, and the branches and leaves will become very long, which will not only affect the shape, but also consume nutrients. They should be cut off immediately after discovery. In addition, there are some cross and overlapping branches, which should also be thinned reasonably

4. When potting, it is not recommended that the plant grow too high, so when it grows to a relatively high height, it should be topped to control its growth height. Generally, the higher branches are properly cut off to allow the lateral branches to grow

2、 Winter pruning

At this time, the plant is in the dormant stage. We can take advantage of this time to cut off the branches and leaves that have poor growth and have been damaged by diseases and pests. Note that the cut of the plant should be disinfected after pruning, especially after pruning the diseased branches. If it is not disinfected, it may be infected
