At the seedling stage, the long branches of lemon trees need to be cored to avoid the top effect and promote the growth of side branches. In addition, you can also use the method of pulling branches to make them bear fruit as soon as possible. In the vigorous growth period, if there are too many summer shoots, they need to be pruned in time. In addition, if there are diseased branches and dead branches, they should be pruned and concentrated in nutrition to make them sprout and bloom.

Pruning method of lemon tree 1, long tip coring

When the lemon tree grows to 2 years, it needs to be pitted at one time, select strong and long branches and remove the leaves on them. There are only about 8 pairs of leaves left on the branches, with a length of 20 cm. This can avoid the apical effect and promote the germination and growth of lateral branches.

2. Branch-pulling cultivation

The demonstration map of lemon pruning method includes pruning cultivation. For lemon trees in seedling stage, strong branches can be selected for pulling down in spring, and attention must be paid to avoid damaging branches in the process to promote the early fruiting of the plants. Experiments have proved that the fruit can be produced two years in advance by pulling branches.

3. Shooting and pumping in summer

In the process of growth, if the lemon tree can produce excessive new shoots, it is not conducive to the bud growth and flowering of branches. Therefore, it is necessary to control summer shoots and prune some redundant branches in June, which can avoid the consumption of nutrients and is conducive to the formation and differentiation of flower buds.

Step 4 prune the diseased branches

In the process of cultivation, if the lemon tree has diseased branches and dead branches, it needs to be pruned in time, which can not only prevent the further spread of the disease, but also concentrate nutrition on bud grafting cultivation and flowering. In addition, it is necessary to carry out bud thinning treatment in time during flowering, which can promote branches to bear fruit as soon as possible and improve fruit yield.
