How to prune lucky bamboo branches

1. How to prune

When pruning branches, the cutting position should be about 0.5 cm away from the mother plant. After cutting, let the incision dry, and then soak it in a suitable disinfectant solution for disinfection for about 30 minutes, or apply an appropriate amount of potassium permanganate solution on the wound to prevent bacterial infection. After treating the incision, you can reinsert it into the vase for maintenance.

2. Maintenance after pruning

After pruning, the lucky bamboo must be cared for frequently. Do not change the water too frequently. Just add water in an appropriate amount. Otherwise, its leaves will turn yellow easily. If you have brandy at home, you can add a few drops of brandy to the water every 3 or 4 weeks. You can also add nutrient solution appropriately to make its leaves more lush and green.
