cutting techniques
If you look after yourself a forsythia, you are now aware of the difficulties described himself well.
The problem is that you can not prune a forsythia in the spring just like any other deciduous tree. With technology you can bleed branches or even wither away like the whole tribe. Therefore, this chapter is now the most important in this paper.
In April, after flowering, is the time to return to the forsythia . Cut At that time she has already opened the new growth. Now if you prune the tree so far that in some branches at all remains no new shoots, then die off these branches in most cases. If you have a young plant to cut up to make a return to the root, it will also dry up most likely. The forsythia does not die from this mean error. It will make the wrong Astschnitt somewhere new drives or drive out in the worst case from the roots again (see below). That the tribe's mostly dried up in the seedling raising. When forsythia is already old trunks sprout from dormant buds. The Aststerben, if wrong section, but happens to all the trees. There
another problem with the fine branching of the forsythia. In trading is often Forsythienbonsai that many have long, poorly ramified branches. Also in the rearing of their own forsythia, there is often this stigma.
This problem is well known. In the magazines it has been discussed many times before. There has been always advised to sell these branches to further down-seated instincts. This is also a correct statement. But what does one do when there are no further down-seated branch? In most cases, it is not the fact. You can try this long branches shorten by wires optical. For even older branches is also the only way such branches inserted into the design. If you simply Shorten these branches, so that no more shoots on the branch remains, will die off this road.
very long time I have dealt with this problem in the forsythia. It annoyed me because you rarely hinbekam a really well-developed branch. Easy to cut back on the trunk near most shoots did nothing, the dormant buds on the long branches could not rouse himself.
success I had fitted with a cutting technique. First, one must know, however, that this raised Problem of poorly branched branches that are older than two years, will no longer be correct.
it is much better if one cuts his forsythia from the start consistently.
The most important lesson is this: All branches of forsythia branches and foliage must be to guarantee a steady flow of juice. If branches or branches without foliage, dry up directly in the rule.
Then now builds to a suitable cutting technique, which can lead to a very good fine branching.
A typical average error. met in most cases, the Forsythia now this tribe from drives and from below as new.
is a year later came the same way. It is therefore important to always leave at least a sheet to keep the sap flow maintained.
In April, right after flowering, is the right time to cut the forsythia. This can happen simultaneously with the repotting. It is very important that the new shoots is already broken through and have perhaps already made two or three pairs of leaves. If we now look at the whole shoot, we see that some branches are only in the tips expelled again, underneath it buds have not opened. such branches are not older than two years, they can still move to the shoot. In older branches does not work anymore.
first we set off all the branches on the shoot, of the tribe is the closest. Then they shortened each shoot so much that all that is left are the first small pair of leaves. Here, the pair of leaves is meant, which has enclosed the bud. So, the bud leaves. You must cut the whole tree in this way is that very important, this technique will not work.
drives After two weeks of the tree then out again. This time, however, all the buds open, including those at the first Shoots sprout did not want. Now you can do to Shorten long branches.
A cutting with good branching. Here, it is striking that only the upper buds have opened. When cutting back now to the unopened buds are stimulated to sprout.
First abbreviated to all branches on the shoots closest to the trunk. Note how far the shoot is already well advanced. This is an ideal time for pruning.
at all branches remains only a single shoot are. In the top branch you can see a couple buds, not the cast wanted.
Even if one hardly recognizes there are many buds, the cast did not want.
This is the most important section. The new shoots will be pruned down to the lowest buds leaves.
This way you can develop a very good fine branching.
In this technique, you achieve your cuttings raising the possibility of an already developed cutting further to reduce its height. As I have already written, one can not simply cut a cutting rigorously, the tribe would die. In this section technical equipment, but always dormant buds, on which you can then settle the tribe.
leave the tree after the pruning grow freely until August. Thus, further thickened the trunk. In August, cut back again. These shoots are cut now, you can over the winter and again until the next spring, a. If the Astgerüst established, you can begin to fine branching. As we know now how to drive out all the buds are placed, we need the tree constructed for Pinching the fine branching only.
they should look like all the new shoots. The green is reduced to the minimum, the tree is put under stress.
This stressful situation is driving the tree now consists of all the remaining buds. This works with any other method.
Three weeks later. Very nice is to see how many buds were there that were not previously expelled.
Three months later. The forsythia has developed magnificently. The new growth is healthy and hard cutting technology, has shown no disadvantages.
pruning in August. You can now begin to build a fine branching. Or you placed the crown on, the shoots is further developed below.
A forsythia in the spring. The bloom is coming to an end. The upper portion of the crown is fine branching already acceptable. The right branch takes further branching. Since the shoot is already out of the bud, the tree should now be pinziert.
There are beautiful flowers on the tree. Most flowers are wilted but already and become mushy. Therefore should be removed before repotting and the subsequent pinching of the tree all the flowers. This ensures a better shoot.
After repotting and the removal of all flowers. Make sure that the buds are removed so that no seeds mature. This would weaken our forsythia in their shoots.
The forsythia can Pinching how they That would make for example, on a maple too. The best way is with your fingers. The shoots are still very soft and can easily pluck. There remains only the bottom pair of leaves are available. It is also possible in this case the buds leaves first pair of leaves are left standing.
sheet cut
Journal section, and forsythia that does not fit each other. As you read, yes, the forsythia will be a complete remove the leaves do not participate. Here again, it will not die. It will throw off a lot of their branches and laboriously built up yielding some new buds. Only, you need to build your tree all over again.
Nevertheless, it is often the problem that your forsythia fertilized, also makes a sudden growth spurt and this again developed very large leaves. Helps in this part of sheet lines. You can always cut to large, single sheets, leaving the crown outline. That does not bother your little tree further. If all the leaves become too large for a shoot, you have to cut these sheets. Since settled Saftzug must be present, you can cut the leaves only in part. If one of my forsythia brings such a rough shoot, I soon all the leaves around two-thirds. It now looks not very nice for a while from. But your tree will bring to this action very quickly new shoot, this time with smaller leaves. Such a thing is usually done mostly in the rearing phase. If your tree is already in a bowl and is in the refinement phase, such a raising happens only rarely, because the trees should then anyway Pinziert constantly.
