Management techniques of Apple trees

At present, there are many varieties of apples, mainly red Fuji apples. And now there are many places in our country to try to grow apples successfully, which shows that the planting management technology of apple trees is also more perfect. Then for fruit growers, the high yield and high quality of apple is the best choice, and the high yield and high quality of apple trees are inseparable from its management skills, so let's learn its management techniques together.

1. Pruning fruit trees

The pruning of apple trees is divided into summer pruning and winter pruning, which is also called pre-flowering pruning. We prune apple trees in winter according to pruning old, weak, diseased, insect, residual and dense branches, and retain strong and strong branches, so as to achieve the best results and lay a foundation for high yield in the coming year. Summer pruning is mainly a supplement to winter pruning, pruning some substandard branches and leaves that are missing in winter.

2. Fertilization and irrigation

The fertilization and watering management of apple trees is very important. Fertilization is generally divided into ring ditch application, radiation ditch application, spreading, strip application, hole application and so on. We mainly use compost as the base fertilizer and apply it in ditch. When fertilizing, if we are using efficient fertilizer, then we do not need to pay too much attention to the way of fertilization. Secondly, we also need to combine extra-root fertilization and fertilizer spraying, so as to maximize the quality of apples. What we should pay attention to in watering is that in the vigorous period of branch growth, we should carry out watering, followed by flowering, strong fruit stage and later stage, but in the later stage we should try to reduce the amount of water. At the same time, in the process of watering, there should not be more or less, which may produce the phenomenon of fruit cracking.

3. Pick the heart and wipe the bud

Coring and sprouting are usually around June every year. First of all, we need to trim the overdense new treetops reasonably, usually to remove the upright growth. Keep the flat and oblique growth. The second is to talk about the new buds after growth, reasonably erase some, lest the branches and leaves are too luxuriant, affecting the supply of nutrients. This can not only improve the ventilation of the crown, but also contribute to the accumulation of nutrients and promote the formation of flower buds.

4. Thinning flowers and fruits

Flower thinning is usually carried out in full bloom, if the apple tree blossoms too much, then we need to sparse the extra flowers, leaving only the right flowers on each branch. The second is after the flower thanks, usually about two weeks, basically the fruit setting is completed, what we need to do is to gently pick the deformed fruit, weak fruit and dense fruit. In fact, flower thinning and fruit thinning can not only achieve the effect of flower and fruit protection, but also ensure the yield and quality of apples.

5. Other management

In fact, there is a lot of work in the management of apple trees, such as protecting flowers and fruits, and we can also achieve results by spraying flowers and fruits. Secondly, annular peeling can also increase the rate of fruit setting and reduce fruit drop. Finally, there is pest control, such as red spiders, leaf rollers, aphids, longicorn beetles, trichlorfon, dimethoate and so on.

The above is what the editor wants to tell you today, the whole content of the management technology of apple tree planting, in fact, this is only a general content that the editor collates and summarizes.
