Potted figs
Potted figs can be shaped in the following two ways. One is the open-heart pruning method, which leaves 3 ~ 4 buds at the base of seedling trunk after planting, and selects 3 main branches in different directions that year. Figs are light-loving trees. If you want to open the angle of the main branch, you can pull the main branch to 60-70 degrees by pulling the branch, and the mixed buds on each main branch can sprout and bear fruit in the next year. The length of the main branches should be controlled at about 40 cm, and the main branches that are too lush should be picked in summer. When pruning in winter, the fruiting branches should be weakened and kept vigorous. The extended branches of the three main branches should be recovered and updated year by year to control the crown and make it appropriate in size.
The second is the pruning method of trunk transverse ring, which will not dry up in the first year after planting and let it grow naturally. Because of its strong germination ability, it can germinate from bottom to top to form multiple branches that year. In winter, according to the distribution of branches, about 65,438+00 branches were selected in a circular staggered way from bottom to top. After the branches are elongated, they should be tied horizontally along the branches with thin iron wires to facilitate continuous fruiting. Pay attention to thinning out the branches that are too dense and overlapping, and the upward growing trunk extension branches should be controlled at 1 m to 1 m. 2 meters high, you should pick it up in time when it is too prosperous. After the third year of fruiting, the horizontal fruiting branches have formed a whole circle around the trunk from bottom to top, which can be updated and pruned every year to maintain the fruiting ability, avoid overlapping of ring branches and form a beautiful tree shape.
