How to deal with ping pong chrysanthemum after it blooms (pruning and maintenance)

1. Pruning after flowering

After the ping pong chrysanthemum has bloomed, the withered flowers and old branches should be cut off in time. While cutting off the flowers, you can also trim the flower stalks at the top to control the growth height of the plant. In addition, the weak branches on the plant should also be cut off. This is done to reduce the loss of nutrients in the soil and allow the plant to grow normally. Yellow leaves and rotten flower stems should also be cut off in time, leaving only the strong branches.

2. Post-flowering care

1. Light: Its flowering period is in autumn. After flowering, it needs to be moved to a warm place so that it can get proper sunlight. It cannot be kept in a too dark environment.

2. Temperature: After entering winter, make sure the breeding temperature is not too low. When the weather is too cold, take measures to keep warm. The temperature should not be lower than 5℃ to avoid frostbite.

3. Water control: After the flowers fade, the amount of watering should be controlled. There is no need to water it too much, and there should not be too much moisture in the soil. In addition, you will need to stop fertilizing for a period of time.
