When the seedlings have 2-3 true leaves, thin them out and keep the distance between plants at 10-15 cm. If there are missing seedlings or broken ridges, they should be replanted in time. In June, 500-1000 kilograms of decomposed human excrement should be applied once per acre, combined with watering and cultivating and weeding. Pinch the seedlings when they are 30 centimeters tall to thicken the seedlings to facilitate grafting. Pay attention to pest control during the seedling stage.

During the growth period, thin out dense branches and ineffective branches, leaving more branches on the windward side and fewer branches on the leeward side to promote ventilation and light transmission. Generally, after pruning persimmon trees, a large number of hidden buds will sprout. In order to reduce nutrient consumption, useless sprouts should be wiped out before lignification; long branches with room for growth, especially leggy branches, should be pinched at 40 cm.

It also needs pruning in winter and spring. During the winter dormant period, plastic pruning is mainly performed.

The key points of spring pruning of persimmon trees are: thin out the upright strong branches on the back, thin and weak branches, overly dense branches, cross branches, overlapping branches, diseased and insect-infested branches, etc., to improve the lighting in the canopy.
