Pick a heart
The pruning of Zanthoxylum bungeanum in summer is mainly flat cutting. When pinching, it can be divided into light pinching and heavy pinching due to the weight of pinching. It's dawn, usually around June. At this time, the branches of Zanthoxylum bungeanum should be partially removed, and the removal length should be kept at about 5 cm. Light pinching is mainly used for fruit trees to avoid overnutrition and overgrowth and promote the formation of pepper flower buds. After pinching, the branches will sprout many times and need to be pinched many times to achieve the goal.
Severe extrusion
Re-pinching refers to picking its position to the mature part of the branch when pinching. Under normal circumstances, about 6 branches and leaves should be removed. When pinching again, the main object is small trees, and small trees should be shaped. When the main branch reaches the target length, it can be pinched again in time to promote the pumping of side branches. Pay attention to the growth mode of lateral branches when coring. Ensure that the growth direction of the second bud is consistent with the direction of the lateral branches. However, if the method of the third bud is close to the side branch direction, the third bud should be pulled out in time.
Support branch
Taking a branch means putting your hands from the root to the middle of the branch to change the growth mode of the branch. Branching is mainly used to open the growth angle of branches, slow down the growth of branches and accelerate the formation of flower buds on branches. When picking branches, it is relatively easy to support and pull branches, and its pruning effect is also good, and it is not easy to damage bark. Pruning with branches is mainly suitable for the growth of thinner branches. If the branches are too thick, they can't be treated at a reasonable angle.
Shear shrinkage method
Shear shrinkage method is a pruning method to cut perennial branches to the branch position, also known as shear shrinkage method. First of all, cutting can reduce the growth advantage of branches and change the direction of extending branches. Improve the air permeability of the tree and effectively control the crown. Generally speaking, the incision of necking is not very big. If the oral branches are thick, narrowing can promote the growth of oral branches. In the process of pruning the perennial roots of the main branches, we should also pay attention to retaining the supporting piles to avoid weakening pruning and strengthening the lower branches.
