The latest course of pruning techniques and methods for apricot trees
Apricot pruning is an important part of apricot production. Reasonable pruning plays a very important role in tree formation and fruit tree yield improvement. The pruning of apricot trees is generally divided into young tree pruning, full fruit pruning and winter pruning. Let's take a look at the detailed introduction with the editor below.
First, pruning at the young tree stage
1. Pruning the tree
In the young apricot tree stage, when the trunk grows to 40-50 cm, there are 3 main branches at the base, and then 4-6 secondary main branches are retained on each main branch, and then there is no need for pruning branches. Maintain this tree shape, more branches and lateral branches can be pruned.
2. Truncation of branches
In the process of shaping apricot trees, it is necessary to cut short the extended branches of the main side branches, the degree of short cutting depends on the strength of the branches, the stronger branches should be cut lightly, and the weaker branches should be re-cut. The short truncation length is 1/3 or 2/5 of the branch.
2. Pruning in full fruiting period
1. Short cut to promote fruit
The results of apricot trees show that some vegetative branches and elongated branches need to be pruned properly, and they need to be shortened to promote the germination of new branches and lay the foundation for high yield. Short cut must be timely, if the short cut is too light, although more branches will be produced, but the branches will be relatively weak, making the fruit trees out of balance and shortening the full fruit life.
2. Pick the heart in vain
In the process of apricot growth, some branches that grow too vigorously, if not stopped, will consume too much nutrients, which is not conducive to fruit expansion. If the growing branch is useful, you can pick the heart and cultivate it into a fruiting branch, and if it is useless, cut it off directly.
Winter pruning
Winter pruning should be carried out first, and the branches that grow too dense at the base should be pruned in time, and the overdense branches and cross branches in the middle and upper part of the crown should be pruned, which can improve the permeability of the plant and promote the overall growth of the plant. There are short annual and perennial main branches, except for a few important main branches, the rest can be pruned. Branches and leaves can promote the growth of branches in the later stage and control the tree type, so that the plant can grow better in the future.
