The latest apple branch transfer methods and matters needing attention

In the process of apple cultivation, the technology of turning branches is often used. The so-called turning branches is to turn a certain part of the annual or perennial branches at a certain angle to change the direction of branch growth and bud direction, and to create artificial injuries. It can mainly block the exchange of nutrients, increase the accumulation of nutrients, adjust the light, etc., suitable for strong branches, with the heart is obviously very obvious. So how to transfer the apple? Come and have a look with the editor.

First, the method of branch transfer

1. Transfer from big branch to branch

If it is relatively easy to grow branches in the same year, you only need to grasp the base with one hand and push inward and then turn with the other hand, so that the branches are rotated 180 degrees and then pulled to an angle of 90 degrees, so that the back becomes lower, the lower back becomes the back, and then the rope is fixed. If it is a sturdy branch that is perennial without scars, it takes two people to work together.

2. Transfer of upper dorsal branch

Before sprouting, the weak branch does not move, the strong branch can turn gently, according to the feel strength, turn 180 degrees, at the same time to suppress the top and promote sprouting, turn in the middle of the branch less than 15cm, and then turn a few more times, and then let it grow, generally no need to change direction.

3. Perennial big branches turn to branches.

Perennial branches are hard to control, and the technology is difficult to control. Either they can't move or the branches are broken. Many fruit growers simply remove them, resulting in waste. This kind of branch turning technique is to push and bend inside at the same time, the inside hand should cooperate with gripping force to turn inside, that is, it can turn together with internal and external cooperation. Do not worry when you hear noises and cracks at the beginning of the branch turning. Stop turning branches immediately when transverse and oblique cracks appear, tie the rope to the injured area and continue to turn branches. After moving, the base moves outward, the inner hand holds the joint between the tight movement and the unmoved, so that the rotated part can no longer move, and the outer hand continues to bend and turn, and so on, until it reaches the desired sagging angle and stops and is fixed.

II. Points for attention

For annual branches to turn every 5-6 buds; and 2-year-old branches to turn at the strong and weak transition, that is, at the front of the weak branch section and the tight back of the strong branch section; for perennial branches turning at the base, first of all to see where the focus is, when turning branches, it is best to wrap them tightly with clean plastic film. For the more prosperous and large number of new shoots on the back, the lower back should be turned into the upper back, and the upper back should be turned into the lower back, so as to alleviate the prosperity of the back.
