When we plant apricot trees, we need to prune the branches and leaves according to their growth conditions, so as to effectively ensure that their nutrients can be transported. But many people don't know how to prune apricot trees, and they don't know when to prune them. At this time, we need to prune according to the growth of apricot trees.

Pruning time For apricot trees, the pruning time is unlimited. Pruning can be done in any season, but the emphasis of pruning is different. Because we have to prune according to its growth state and its growth degree, the best leisure time for apricot trees is in winter, when it is dormant, and we can reduce its damage during pruning by pruning. In addition, we can do a lot of pruning in winter to make it grow more vigorously in the next spring, because this will not have much impact on it. Pruning branches in other seasons will reduce their healing ability, make them difficult to repair, and may even lead to death due to pruning.

How to prune when pruning, we need to cut off its branches and leaves, and don't destroy its overall shape, because the shape of its own tree has already grown before. If we go back, its shape will easily make its branches lose their original state in the process of growth. We can prune his crown during his seedling period, so that his crown will continue to expand during the growth process. Of course, we also need to reduce some shorter branches appropriately. The yield of apricot trees is not particularly high when they first bear fruit. If we need to improve its productivity, we need to prune it properly to increase its nutrient transport.

Note: When pruning, you must prune according to the different growth states described. For example, when he prunes in the fruiting period, he must pay attention to cultivating new branches and leaves, so as to promote his reproduction. Besides, we need to prune it a little when it is getting old, because it has reached a certain age, so we may need to replant it.
