Pick the heart according to the growth stage of carnation

Carnation is an ornamental flower, so it needs more branches and flowers, so it must be picked from the seedling stage of carnation. The first picking is when the seedlings grow 89 pairs of leaves. At this time, four to six pairs need to be kept. The second coring is carried out when four pairs of leaves grow from the side branches, and three to four pairs of leaves can be reserved for each branch. At the stage of bud pregnancy, only the top flower bud should be retained for each branch, and all the buds germinating in the leaf axil should be removed. After that, the pedicel needs to be cut off again at the flowering stage

Types of carnations

One heart pick

Remove all the top buds of carnations at one time, leaving side buds to grow and blossom. This method will greatly shorten the flowering time

Second heart picking

It can be seen from one heart picking that the second heart picking is the second heart picking after one heart picking. This time, you can choose to remove half of the lateral branches and top buds and let the others grow. You can also choose to pick all the hearts for the second time. Such a disadvantage is the decline in the quality of the second crop of flowers. Of course, compared with one plucking, the flowering time of two plucking is greatly prolonged

Pick the heart and wipe the bud

After picking the heart for the first time, you can wipe the buds when the lateral branches grow to five pairs, and then wipe the buds as the lateral buds grow. Of course, you must pay attention to the appropriate light conditions and temperature conditions. In this way, it can not only ensure the output and quality, but also almost have flowers every year
