1. The best time for sprouting

Citrus sprouting in spring is generally the year before the fruit, summer and autumn shoots should be put, at this time time is more important, we must not delay the emergence of summer shoots. Summer shoots can be released in May and autumn shoots in mid-September, and summer shoots can also be released in mid-July in some areas due to the influence of temperature. Early or too late shooting time will affect other people's production and growth. Citrus sprouting in spring is best to choose sunny weather, fertilizing fruit trees before sprouting, and timely watering if there is a lack of water. Drought will lead to a reduction in sprouting. The requirement of sprouting in spring is relatively high, if the shoot is too early and too late, it will not only pick the sprout times, but also cause more losses to the sprout, resulting in a large amount of nutrient reduction, but also increase the labor force.

2. The method of wiping buds

When the buds of summer and autumn shoots are erased, it will stimulate the germination of secondary buds. You have to wait a week to remove the buds from the new shoots and germinate again, so that more and more buds will germinate as you wipe them down. Only the new buds that can meet the requirements will stop wiping buds and let them branch.

3. Matters needing attention in wiping buds

The summer shoots or autumn shoots left after sprouting are not only good, but also neat in number, which will increase the branches of the fruiting mother branches, thus increasing the yield of young trees. Therefore, shooting is best carried out one year before fruiting. For young trees that have just borne fruit, too many summer shoots will compete with young fruits for water and fertilizer, and when serious, it will cause fruit drop, so at this stage, try not to wipe buds and shoots. It is suggested that shoots will not be released until after stable fruit, so that this conflict can be resolved. In addition, in arid areas, exuberant citrus trees often send out a lot of autumn shoots after drought, resulting in fewer flowers in the coming year. In this case, we can prevent the occurrence of late autumn shoots by wiping out summer shoots.
