Pruning time of cherry trees
Pruning cherry trees takes many times a year. The best pruning time is in early spring, that is, before cherry trees germinate, probably in March, or in summer or autumn, usually in May-June in summer and August-September in autumn. Pruning in spring should not be done too early, otherwise the temperature will be low and the incision will be easily frostbitten.
Pruning method of cherry tree
1. First of all, the structure of cherry trees should be combed, so that the upper branches are sparse and the lower branches are dense. With the growth of planting time, the fruit trees will become more and more dense, so it is necessary to cut off some big branches to enhance the penetration of light.
2. In order to prevent the small number of early fruits from growing up with nutrients, the trunk of the big tree will grow too vigorously and too high, which is not conducive to our operation and fruit picking, so we should bow our heads in time.
Matters needing attention in pruning cherry trees
After the branches of cherry trees are injured, they are easily infected, which leads to illness. So be very careful when pruning, so as not to damage the branches. Cherry trees like light. If there are too many branches around the short section during plastic pruning, the branches will be too large, too dense, strong at the top and weak at the bottom, all of which are small side branches and fruiting branches, which are easy to weaken and die.
