For some roots with weak growth and good growth status, only the rotten and dry roots need to be pruned. If the growth condition is poor, the root is weak, or there are diseases and insect pests, part of the main root and all the surrounding fibrous roots can be cut off. The growth state becomes very bad and can be heavily pruned. Most of the main roots and all fibrous roots are cut off. Be careful not to repair during the growing season.

I. what kind of cultivation?

1. Light repair: for some plants with weak root growth and good growth status, it is generally not necessary to repair roots in a large range, but only to prune rotten and dry roots. From the appearance, the growth is good, the foundation is solid, the root is clean and full, but the condition is not good, only need a little pruning, can not prune too much, but is not conducive to the recovery of growth.
