1、 Pruning time

It is suggested to prune Milan in November, when it will enter winter. There are two main reasons for this. One is that at this time, the weather has cooled, the air humidity has also decreased, and the bacteria will be reduced a lot. At this time, after pruning, the plant is not easy to get sick. The second is that at this time, it is in a dormant state and grows slowly. It is easy to set after pruning

2、 Pruning method

1. Cutting off diseased leaves: before pruning, first observe the plant and find all the branches and leaves with poor growth, that is, the branches and leaves that are dry, soft, wilted and yellow. Then prepare a small pair of scissors and cut off these branches and leaves from the base. In this way, it can save a lot of nutrients, which is good for overwintering and growth in the coming year

2. Setting pruning: in addition to cutting off the branches with poor growth, a setting pruning should also be carried out at this time. The specific cutting method depends on the plant type you want it to grow into. For example, if you want it to grow into a ball, you need to cut the long branches on the periphery of the plant short, and cut the too dense branches sparse. After cutting, apply medicine to the cutting mouth for disinfection
