Tomato is a vine vegetable with exuberant growth and strong branching. Therefore, in order to facilitate management in artificial cultivation, in order to improve the growth status of tomato, improve fruit setting rate and improve fruit quality, it is generally necessary to shape and shape through a series of construction techniques. To achieve the above planting goals. But some growers who don't have much experience need the plastic surgery and pruning I'm going to talk about next.

I. purpose of pruning

First of all, pruning is to improve the growth environment of tomato, reduce the temperature and humidity inside the plant, and avoid diseases. It can also make the internal leaves better accept the light, carry on the light and function to produce more nutrients. There is also in order to concentrate nutrients for the supply of strong branches, fruit growth, reduce unnecessary consumption, and avoid the decline of fruit quality. At the same time, the suitable shape is trimmed in order to facilitate field management and convenient harvest in the future.

2. Pruning time

Generally, pruning is carried out in summer, and growth is mainly in spring. In summer, the vigorous growth of branches affects reproductive growth, and the quality of the results requires pruning and balanced growth.

Third, pruning methods

1. Single stem pruning

The main thing is to leave only one trunk, and then get rid of all the side branches. When the trunk has 3 or 4 ears, you can pick the heart, remove the top advantage, and no longer let the trunk grow. When removing lateral branches, it is generally necessary to leave two leaves to ensure development, but also to prevent trunk injury. When picking the heart, you should pay attention to stay away from the ear and leave a few more leaves above the ear. Prevent fruit drop caused by lack of light and functional nutrition.

two。 Double trunk pruning

Double stem management is to select a strong lateral branch as the second trunk under the first inflorescence on the basis of single stem, and then sprout all the lateral branches on the two trunk. Maintain the growth of double stem. In general, the second trunk should be managed as a result branch. All the pruned vines should be tied to the shelf to facilitate upward growth.

So the above is about the main methods of tomato pruning and shaping, maintaining a reasonable and fixed tree shape has a great auxiliary effect on its growth, at the same time, it can also bring great convenience to managers, and it is very beneficial to improve yield and quality. At the same time, this necessary step should not be missed in production.
