When planting red bayberry, it is generally necessary to improve the plant type by pruning, make it more branched, expand the crown, increase the number of blossoms and fruits, and improve the yield and quality. But you can't prune blindly, otherwise it will be counterproductive, so when do you trim it? How should I trim it? Let's get to know it.

1. Pruning time

The general pruning time is from June to July in summer, when large branches are sawed and strong branches are disturbed, while the spring pruning time is from March to April, when the twigs are trimmed, mainly pruning some dense branches, withered branches, branches with too much short fruit, etc., while the autumn pruning time is November, when the main pruning time is to prune some overstrong vegetative branches and autumn shoots.

2. Pruning method

The pruning methods of bayberry mainly include sprouting, coring, cutting, thinning, retraction, pulling and supporting, ring peeling and so on, which summarize all the pruning work of bayberry. Sprouting and coring are mainly carried out on young trees to promote more branches and form a crown as soon as possible so as to lay the foundation for high yield in the future. While the rest are carried out on the number of fruit, short cutting can promote the renewal and rejuvenation of branches and restore tree potential; thinning is beneficial to blossom and fruiting in order to increase the permeability of the crown; retraction is for the growth of mother branches to renew and rejuvenate declining trees and large lateral branches; pulling branches and supporting branches are to make the crown expand outward, so as to avoid the withering and baldness of the inner branches; in order to promote flower bud differentiation and improve fruit setting rate during ring peeling.

3. Pruning young trees

Generally, the trunk is fixed at 30-50 in the young tree, 3-5 strong shoots are selected to grow into the main branch after sprouting in the spring shoot, and the rest are lateral branches. when the main branch grows to a certain extent, one is forced to be the secondary main branch at 50 cm according to the main trunk, while the second secondary main branch is on the other side of the first secondary main branch. At the same time, lateral branches should be cultivated to form a crown as soon as possible, so as to lay a foundation for early fruit.

4. Pruning during the growing period

Pruning in the growing period is mainly divided into spring pruning and autumn pruning. Spring pruning is usually from April to May. Pruning can promote root germination and growth, which makes the spring shoot time lag behind the flowering and fruiting time. In this way, the germination of new shoots and the enhancement of nutrients in flowering and fruiting can be avoided, thus the fruit setting rate can be increased. Autumn shearing is usually from October to November, mainly to promote plant flower bud differentiation, for the late germination of overgrown branches should be pruned in time, can save nutrients to promote flower bud differentiation.

The above is the introduction of the pruning time and methods of red bayberry. I hope it can help you. If you want to know more about it, please follow us.
