Landings at the dacha demand regular leaving. It belongs not only to berry bushes and fruit-trees, but also to the normal forest beauties growing on the site. Whether it is possible to grow up, for example, at the dacha pine that this coniferous tree has not interfered with other landings? For this purpose it is necessary to cut off crown, and not just anyhow, and on certain system.
It is required to you
- - garden scissors.
Instruction
1. Such coniferous plant as pine, grows annually. If at you on the site small, say, one-and-a-half-meter tree has taken roots, periodically arrange it peculiar hairstyle that the pine did not grow too strongly and did not shade other plantings, hampering their growth. For such work prepare garden scissors.
2. Choose the correct time for care for tree. Wait when on spring on branches of pine peculiar "candles" (gains) are formed. After they stop in growth, having formed short germs of future needles, start their cutting.
3. Begin processing with the top of tree, and then you pass to cutting of each skeletal branch separately. Leave when processing "penechka" 2-5 cm in size. It is necessary for the reason that precisely it is almost impossible to catch stop of gains. It is better to begin cutting of completion of growth of "candles" slightly earlier, and here it is undesirable to cut already finally grown up needles. It is quite possible that the cut-off parts will grow up a little more subsequently, and finally the annual gain will turn out 1-2 cm more.
4. Avoid when processing trimming of gains on needles. Tips from it turn yellow and take untidy look for several years, needles live long enough. If needles are not damaged, then they will grow over time and will disperse; at the same time the cut-off places of cuts and rudiments will not be evident, the lower tiers outgrow averages.
5. At unstable weather during the season some gains can develop later than usual time. In this case decide separately how to treat each of them. You proceed from overall view of krone. If "candle" does not spoil exterior of tree, leave it untouched. Cut only those gains which are considerably beaten out from all row. Act at the same time with care, keeping needles. Over the years at similar leaving the pine will become tidy, not too high and moderately fluffy.
