After large seedlings are 3 years old, when there are only a few weeds, chemical weeding cannot be used. During intertillage, cultivate shallowly near the plants to avoid damaging the roots, and slightly deeper between the rows.

3. Reasonable Topdressing

The four-season honeysuckle generally only needs topdressing twice a year. The first is done before and after early spring sprouting, and afterward topdressing is done after each flower bud harvest according to the vigor of the plants. Apply livestock and poultry manure or nitrogen fertilizers such as ammonium sulfate and urea, broadcast them into opened furrows, and cover with soil to conceal the fertilizer. After entering the high-yield period, winter fertilizer needs to be applied each winter. In addition, each winter, foliar spraying should be carried out according to the vigor of the plants.

Pruning is key to cultivating the four-season honeysuckle. It is divided into planting pruning, young-stage pruning and full-bloom pruning. The purpose is to organize the tree shape well to increase yield. Pruning at planting time can determine the basic tree shape and lay a good foundation for shaping and pruning in the first and second years.
