The growing environment of chestnut trees
Chestnut is a relatively tall tree and fruit tree, and its growth and fruiting mainly have two characteristics: first, strong light; The second is the result of strong support. Chestnut generally produces fruiting branches from several buds at the top of fruiting branches. Strong fruiting branches not only form yield, but also are the main branches to expand crown and cultivate backbone branches. Shaping and pruning should focus on promoting growth. The top advantage of chestnut makes the growth potential and growth of branches in different parts of the crown have obvious differences. The growth potential of the top upright branches is the strongest, and the strength of the lower branches is weakened in turn. Sagging branches often die of natural causes. The growth of fruiting branches, the number of fruiting branches and the size of chestnut in different parts of the crown are also obviously different.
The purpose of shaping and pruning is to balance the growth of various parts and branches, so as to balance the growth and results. Chestnut is dioecious, with strong branches and strong fruits. Flowers and fruits need high light conditions, and various pruning measures should be taken to improve the ventilation and light transmission conditions of each plant and the whole chestnut garden. There are many weak male flowers in the inner room, which should be thinned out. Therefore, one-sided emphasis on the firmness of the inner bore can not achieve obvious benefits.
