When thinning fruit, pay attention to that there should be a certain distance between the fruits on the same fruiting branch, so as to avoid dense crowding due to expansion in the later stage of fruit period, which will affect the fruit development.

4. Young tree pruning

Young tree pruning is mainly to build skeleton, culture familiar, and pay attention to the balance between the main branches and subordinate relations, but also timely picking, promote the growth of fruit branches. Generally, the trunk height should be controlled at about 1.2 meters. The main branches should be selected according to the tree shape, and the number of branches should be increased.
