How should the newly planted Zanthoxylum bungeanum trees be pruned and when is the right time for pruning?

Abstract: how should newly planted prunes be pruned and when is the right time for pruning?

Pepper many friends like to eat, I also like it, every stir-fry can not be separated from pepper. However, the price of Zanthoxylum bungeanum is indeed not low, which is mainly related to the output of Zanthoxylum bungeanum. Friends who have planted Zanthoxylum bungeanum should understand that the output of Zanthoxylum bungeanum is very low. Generally, a tree of Zanthoxylum bungeanum can not bear a few jin of pepper. Of course, if you want pepper to have a good harvest, you can't do without pruning. Here I would like to share with you some pruning knowledge about pepper.

How to prune the pepper tree?

First of all, the newly planted prickly ash tree is mentioned in the question, the newly planted pruning tree generally belongs to the young tree, the pruning of the pruning tree at this stage is relatively less, mainly by the shaping and pruning of the young tree, so that the young tree forms a good tree-shaped structure. In general, the shaping and pruning of young trees can be divided into three types: natural open heart type, many main branches cluster shape and sparse layer small crown spindle shape.

Here we mainly talk about the natural happy type.

Natural happy type: the natural happy prickly ash tree generally has an obvious trunk, the trunk is generally about 35 cm high, the trunk generally retains three main branches, and each main branch retains about three lateral branches. This kind of tree shape is beneficial to the rapid prototyping of Zanthoxylum bungeanum, the time of fruiting is early, and the light is uniform and the yield is increased. The pruning time is suitable for autumn.

The pruning method, first of all, needs to be dried, and the height of the fixed stem needs to consider the variety of prickly ash trees and the planting environment. Generally speaking, the height of prickly ash trees is about 30 to 50 centimeters. When drying, it is necessary to keep about six full buds about ten centimeters below the cut mouth. Wait until the prickly ash tree has sprouted, wipe off the new buds below the full buds left here.

In the first year of planting, three Zanthoxylum bungeanum branches with good growth were generally selected as the main branch culture, and the other Zanthoxylum bungeanum branches were used as auxiliary branches. When the retained main branch of Zanthoxylum bungeanum tree grows to about 50 centimeters, usually in June every year, it begins to pick the heart and cultivate secondary branches.

When pruning in winter, you need to pay attention to the part of pruning. In general, the main branches and side branches should be cut at the full buds. The growth angle of the main branch should be kept at an angle of about 60 degrees with the vertical direction, and the angle is not suitable to adjust the growth angle of the main branch.

In addition, the branches except the main branch are decided to be retained according to the growth situation, generally, if the growth of the main branch is not affected, it can be used as an auxiliary branch, and if the growth is overlapped or crossed, it can be thinned properly. when thinning, it is usually cut directly from the base of the branch.

It usually takes four years for a naturally happy pepper tree to be stereotyped, during which time it needs to be trimmed every year. In the second year, the coring of the prickly ash tree was carried out at 40 to 50 cm, and the secondary lateral branches were cultured in the opposite direction to the primary lateral branches. In the third year, coring was carried out at the position of 50 to 60 cm, and the tertiary lateral branches were cultured in the opposite direction to the secondary lateral branches. In the fourth year, there is no need to cultivate lateral branches, but also need to pick the heart to avoid growing too strong branches at the top, and pay attention to tamping the inner bore branch group.
