Yushu is a very common green leaf-viewing plant , which is grown in many families. The shape of Yushu is tree-shaped, with thick fleshy leaves, thick green and bright leaves, and a thick and upright texture, which is very suitable for potted plants to be viewed as bonsai. Yushu grows rapidly in summer. After entering autumn, as the temperature continues to drop, the growth of Yushu gradually becomes slower. But as long as we do a good job of maintenance, we can still keep the jade trees very beautiful. As long as you learn to "1 cut 1 more 2 less", you can make the jade tree grow lush branches and leaves.

cut

After a summer of growth, the jade tree often becomes scattered and its plant shape is messy. If the branches are too dense and the leaves and leaves block each other, it will greatly reduce the photosynthesis of the plant and affect the growth of the plant. After the temperature drops in autumn, the Yushu needs to be moved back to the house for maintenance. If the plant type is not good, the ventilation between the leaves will become worse, which is easy to get infected with various bacteria and become sick. Therefore, after entering autumn, it is best to prune the tree shape of the jade tree.

In mid-autumn, the temperature is higher than 15 degrees and lower than 30 degrees, which is the most suitable time period for pruning. Stop watering the Yushu within 3 days before pruning to prevent too much water from the branches and the wound from healing. Only 2 to 3 main trunks are retained, and the thin and weak branches, pest and diseases, and intersecting branches are cut off first. The branches that are too long should be cut short to make the branches of the jade tree sparse and dense.

Sun-sun-sun

Although Yushu's growth rate in autumn is not as good as in summer, as long as it is growing, it requires photosynthesis absorption capacity. If the sun is too low in autumn, jade trees are prone to problems of growing too much. The leaves that grow only have thin flesh, light color, and weak branches, so the overall shape will be very messy. The sunlight in autumn is softer than in summer, and the ultraviolet rays are weaker. If you don’t want the jade tree to grow too slowly, you have to bask in the sun more.

water less

Yushu is a very drought-tolerant plant. Its fleshy leaves and branches can store a lot of water, and it does not require frequent watering. After autumn begins, the temperature drops, the evaporation of water in the flower pots slows down, and the number of water and the amount of water should also be reduced. Each time, wait until the soil is completely dry and the pot becomes very light, so it is better to water it.

Fertilize less

Fertilize Yushu in autumn, and it can be divided into two stages according to the temperature.

When the temperature is above 15 degrees, the growth rate of Yushu is OK and requires more nutrients. You can use some high-nitrogen fertilizers or organic fertilizers to add additional nutrition, and usually apply thin fertilizer once a month.

When the temperature is below 15 degrees (most areas are after October), the growth of Yushu becomes very slow or even does not grow at all. At this time, Yushu began to reflux the nutrients from the leaves to the branches and trunks, preparing for winter, and the root system's ability to absorb fertilizers will become worse. Therefore, after October, there is no need to fertilize Yushu anymore.
