Pruning methods of persimmon trees in summer

Persimmon is a common fruit in our life, and its planting area is also relatively large in our country. When planting persimmon trees, we should pay attention to the management work. In the management, the pruning work is very important, including summer cutting and winter cutting. Summer clipping is something we need to pay attention to. So how to trim persimmon trees in summer? The following editor brings you the method of pruning persimmon trees in summer. Let's have a look!

1. Erase buds

For young persimmon trees that have been dried and planted, the main pruning method in summer is to wipe buds. After the young tree branches sprout, the new buds below the plastic strip should be erased in time. For big trees, the buds produced in the places where the big branches are bifurcated, the base of the pile after thinning and the bends of the stout branches can be properly preserved, and the rest of the buds should be erased in time. And after the big branches retract, many new buds will also sprout near some saw blades. Two sprouting strips can be properly retained in this position, and the rest should be erased.

2. Pick the heart

Heart-picking is also a common pruning method for persimmon trees in summer. For some valuable branches and developing branches on young trees, when they grow to about 35cm, they should be properly coring and control the growth of branches. So that it can draw secondary branches as soon as possible, so as to grow into fruiting mother branches. As for the new shoots produced by some new and high grafted shoots, it is also necessary to choose a suitable part for coring. Let it be able to sprout the second and third shoots, and then cultivate it into backbone branches. For the young trees with strong growth, the extended shoots of the trunk and side branches can retain 40cm for coring, increase the number of branches and promote the formation of tree crown.

3. Pull branches

The growth ability of persimmon trees is relatively strong, so the branches are generally more erect. If not dealt with, then the canopy appears closed phenomenon, affecting the overall image of persimmon trees, and will have a great impact on the yield. Therefore, when we carry out the shaping work for young trees and high-grafted trees, we should combine the branch-pulling work. Ease the tree potential and improve the structure of the crown and the growth direction of the branches. Ensure that the branches can be pulled according to the ideal angle and direction before the Lignification of the new shoots.

4. Ring cutting

Ring cutting is suitable for strong young persimmon trees and persimmon trees with strong growth but few blossoms. When entering the early flowering stage, it can be cut around, so as to improve the fruit setting rate of persimmon trees and reduce the phenomenon of physiological fruit drop. Ring cutting is about twice around the knife on the trunk or main branch. If it is a hanging fruit tree or a large fruiting branch group, then the ring cutting strength can be appropriately increased according to the actual situation. Ensure that the xylem is reached, but be careful not to hurt the mother branch, and the adjacent ring cut can be kept around 4cm.
