How to make and maintain willow buds?

The water consumption of willows after germination is naturally more than usual, because water is replenished in time. Make the water in the vase more suitable, so as to promote the absorption of sufficient water and accelerate the germination of new buds. If there is water shortage for a long time, even if new buds grow, they will not germinate well in the later stage, which will hinder growth.

Second, increase the light

Willow has slight shade tolerance, so it can be placed in the shade before germination, but the light should be increased appropriately after germination. It is suggested to move it to a well-lit window sill or balcony to bask in the sun, so that photosynthesis can be better and faster growth can be promoted. If there is no light, the growth state will become worse, and even the new buds will fall off.

Third, supplement fertilizer.

When the willow buds grow out, they should be replaced with a slightly larger vase and added with appropriate fertilizer. The specific dosage depends on the growth of new buds. There is sufficient growth space and nutrients, so that it can sprout more new buds and branches.

Fourth, appropriate pruning.

Willow should be pruned properly after germination, especially after many new branches grow. Cutting off irregular branches in time can save a lot of nutrients and promote the growth of strong branches. Pay attention to light cutting when pruning to avoid new branches falling off, otherwise it will affect the quality of flower branches.
