1、 Topping time

The growth rate of asparagus is too fast, so it needs topping to inhibit the top growth. After removing the growth point, it can promote the vigorous growth of the plant and make the plant type plump, lush and more compact. The time can be selected in spring, which is the most appropriate time. The climate is relatively mild, causing less damage to the plant and conducive to recovery, but mainly according to the needs of growth

2、 Preparation tools

To topping the asparagus, first of all, you need to choose a suitable tool, a sharp pair of scissors, so that the topping can be carried out more smoothly. You can use special gardening scissors. Before use, it needs to be disinfected to remove bacteria and avoid infection at the incision

3、 Carry out topping

In the seedling stage, when the new buds of asparagus grow to about 3cm, the growth points above can be cut off, which can promote plant Dwarfing and branch emergence. For 1-2-year-old plants, there are many branches, and the branches need to be toppled and trimmed. For plants that have been growing for more than 3 years, if it is not necessary to collect seeds, the trailing branches need to be cut off from the roots at one time, which can also reduce nutrients and promote the growth in the later stage
