1. Pick the heart

We can take it to heart, but what we need to pay attention to is how to do it. Generally speaking, we don't need to use any tools. We just need to pinch off the top with our fingers. After this measure, it can be found that its branches grow better, but its length and thickness will not take effect immediately. It will take several years to see the effect

2. Pruning

Pruning can also make it long and thick, but it needs some methods. If we do not operate properly, it will not be effective. Generally speaking, we need to trim its semi woody parts, especially the places with dense bud eyes. If we only cut off the tender parts above, it will not look good. Even if it has side branches, there will not be many, only about one branch, so it can not achieve the purpose of making it grow thick

3. Precautions

① When trimming, we can put some balm on its wound, because the juice will not flow away. Of course, we need to be careful, because the juice sticks to the clothes and is difficult to clean

② After we trim it, we should pay attention to watering. Because there are not as many leaves as before, its demand for water is not high, so we need to pour less water

③ Of course, what we should pay attention to is that we should also add some fertilizer when watering, so that it will grow better and the branches will be thicker. When adding fertilizer, we should pay attention to adding more nitrogen fertilizer and less potassium and phosphorus fertilizer
