How to prune mulberry trees
Mulberry trees can be pruned in spring and winter, because the plants grow slowly at this time, in which large-scale and comprehensive pruning is carried out in winter, and some branches and leaves that are not pruned in winter are mainly pruned in early spring. Thinning method is commonly used, mainly pruning branches and leaves that are too dense, old branches and diseased branches. Promote the growth of new branches, reduce nutrient consumption and enhance the cold resistance of plants.

When will mulberry trees be pruned?

Mulberry is best pruned in spring or winter, because the growth rate of the plant is slow at this time, and the damage to it after pruning is minimal.

It is best to cultivate mulberry trees by cuttage from June to September in summer. At this time, the climate is suitable and the branches have strong germination ability, which can improve the survival rate. The cuttings are annual, the bottom is cut into oblique corners, some leaves on the top are removed, soaked in root water, and then directly inserted obliquely into the soil for watering, and it takes root in less than a month.

Mulberry pruning branches and leaves

Mulberry trees are pruned on a large scale in winter, and some branches and leaves that are not pruned in winter are mainly pruned in early spring.

In early spring, the newly sprouted buds of mulberry can be erased, the over-dense buds can be loosened, and the terminal buds of mulberry can also be removed, so as to promote flower bud differentiation, control excessive growth of branches and leaves, and improve fruit setting rate.

Mulberry thinning is the most common pruning method, mainly pruning branches and leaves, old branches and diseased branches, so as to promote the growth of new branches and reduce nutrient consumption.

Pruning skills of mulberry trees

The purpose of mulberry pruning is to increase the number of branches and realize rapid growth and early high yield. Timely pruning can enrich the development of branches and buds, increase the differentiation of flower buds, greatly improve the quality of flower buds and better fruit setting rate.

The length of mulberry shoot cutting depends on its variety and the length of branches. If the branches are short, the internodes are dense and the germination rate is high, the cutting tips are short, but the cutting tips are long.

Mulberry pruning results

After mulberry leaves fall naturally, cutting off the top of branches can reduce nutrient consumption, enhance the cold resistance of plants, and improve the germination rate and fruit setting rate in the next spring.

Matters needing attention in mulberry pruning

Mulberry pruning, if adopted, has the functions of rejuvenation, regeneration and recovery, and is mostly used for the regeneration of backbone branches. When pruning, there are weak branches and buds in the cut, and the cut is very large, which will play a restraining role.
