There are four ways of pruning in summer: pinching, twisting, thinning and pulling. Next, let's talk about it in detail.
1, coring.
Picking the heart is picking the new buds of peach trees. Coring is mainly to remove the extra buds at the bottom and on each branch. This effect can make other buds grow upward, make a small amount of fruit get more nutrition and make the fruit grow bigger. Determine the top advantage. Pick your heart about three times a year. The time is from late May to early June, from late June to early July, and from late August to early September every year.
2, twist the tip.
Twisting can be when the branches and fruits are waiting for more sunshine, twisting the newly grown treetops downward. The reason for this is that plants can get better photosynthesis, the fruit grows bigger, the color is brighter, the pulp is sweeter and it sells better.
3. Thinning.
Peach trees like light, and thinning can make them get more light, preferably at the flower bud stage. Cut off all redundant branches to improve lighting conditions, increase ventilation and light transmission at the lower part, and promote fruit growth.
4. Pull the branches.
This has a great influence on young trees. Pulling branches can make the shape of peach trees more reasonable and bear fruit earlier. When pulling branches, it should be noted that the angle of pulling branches should not be too large, and it is generally appropriate to control it at about 80 degrees, but it should not be pulled horizontally. In addition, in order to finalize the design, it is suggested that it is best to put soft objects at the branch pulling point to prevent the fruit trees from pulling.
Pruning in summer is mainly because peach trees have a strong demand for light and a strong top advantage. If not trimmed, it will affect the light, disturb the tree shape and affect the primary and secondary. If the main branch is too smooth, it will cause the former to dry up and the latter to flourish. If the pruning is too hard, it is not conducive to the photosynthesis of peach trees. Peaches are easy to get sunburned, their appearance is not good, and they can also cause trees to grow weakly. If they can't bear fruit, they will also cause gummosis and lead to the death of trees.
