Blueberries can be pruned three times a year, usually in flower bud stage, summer and winter. Blueberry branches can be pruned 2-3 times in summer. Reasonable pruning can reduce the consumption of nutrients, thus promoting the better growth of blueberries.

Pruning method of blueberry

1, flower bud pruning

The flower buds of blueberries grow on the branches of the previous year, and more flower buds appear every spring. Too many buds will affect the fruit and quality. Pruning should be timely, and proper pruning can reduce the consumption of nutrients.

2, summer pruning

Blueberries grow very fast, and the branches are usually two to three times longer. If they grow too fast or the branches are too long, the ornamental value will be reduced. At this time, it is best to prune in time and cut off the flower buds before they grow, so as to increase the number of flowers.

3, winter pruning

Blueberries hibernate in winter. At this time, pruning does little harm to the plant, and the plant type can also be adjusted, mainly by cutting off branches that are too dense and too long, or old and weak branches. The cut branches can be used for cutting.
