Chinese wolfberry pruning and shaping technology, easy to increase output in four steps

Chinese wolfberry has many advantages, and it is also widely needed in the market. after consumption, it also has the effect of treating cough and deficiency of liver and kidney. The germination time of Chinese wolfberry is earlier than that of ordinary plants. If you want high yield and good quality of Chinese wolfberry, you need to prune it. How to prune the branches of Chinese wolfberry in order to increase its production? next to help you understand the correct method of pruning Chinese wolfberry.

1. Update the result branch group

The trunk of the Chinese wolfberry tree is relatively thin, so there will be a downward bending after one or two years of fruit. once this phenomenon occurs, it represents a decline in the fruiting ability of the Chinese wolfberry tree, so we need to renew and rejuvenate the fruiting branch group. the popular point is to leave three to five centimeters of branches, cut off the excess branches, and then sprout the branches in spring. Select a robust bud for coring and cultivate into a new fruiting branch group, which can ensure that there will not be excess consumption of nutrients, but also ensure the fruiting ability of the plant so as to increase the yield of Chinese wolfberry.

Second, thinning branches

Branch thinning is to cut off some dead branches and branches damaged by diseases and insect pests, and to improve the permeability of branches by pruning some fruit-bearing branches with high density. Generally thinning branches is to cut off the thin branches and shade branches, and then to build the back branches and middle branches of the fruit trees. if there is still some close distance after the construction, you can also trim the side branches of the branches. The distance between the branches should be kept at about five centimeters, and the branches left behind should be relatively strong branches to ensure the fruiting rate of the fruit trees.

Third, renew the fruiting branches

The growth of fruiting branches is different, some fruiting branches can only bear fruit once or bear a small number of fruits, some fruiting branches can be added for more than two years or more. In this case, the thin grayish-brown short branches should be truncated, and then the new fruiting branches should be re-cultivated. This method is used to ensure that nutrients will not be overconsumed, thereby increasing the yield of fruit trees.

4. Pruning long branches

In spring, the climate slowly warms up, and the amount of rain will increase, which will lead to the vitality of Chinese wolfberry plants and the growth of branches. Once this happens, it will lead to uneven absorption of nutrients in the branches, and then nutrition and fruit yield. so at this time, we have to prune some overlong branches. As the branches of Lycium barbarum are relatively weak, so long as the branches are properly truncated to stabilize the extension direction of the branches, and then cultivate them into fruiting branches to avoid unnecessary nutrient consumption. Pruning overgrown branches can expand the crown area and increase the fruit yield of Lycium barbarum.
