Pruning peach trees should be reasonable. How should peach trees be pruned? How to prune the fruit trees? As we all know, because of its strong adaptability, rapid growth and development, early fruiting, good harvest, low cost and quick effect, people like to plant fruit trees very much. Let's take a look at the technical points of peach tree pruning.

I. First summer pruning

Fruit trees, like other peach trees, choose summer pruning and winter pruning. Summer pruning is from May to July. During this period, methods such as bud-wiping, core-removing, dewatering and twisting should be adopted for seedlings, new branches and new shoots, and the orientation, position and angle of branches should be adjusted to promote the pruning of fruit trees and grow into solid fruit branches as soon as possible. In the middle and late April, it is necessary to choose one with strong skills from two or three branches raised in the same section and remove all unnecessary branches.

Second summer pruning

The second pruning was carried out in the first half of June, and the new branches in the hole and the auxiliary branches in the field also needed to be cored, which promoted the richness of institutions. Branches that have been cored for the first time, branches that have been cored this time, and secondary branches and new branches that have sprouted within 35 cm after the first coring need to be cored. Branches that are too dense should be sparse, unreasonably twisted, and upright. By mid-July, there will be another pruning.

Three, winter pruning technical points

The general pruning standard should be carried out step by step at the end of 1 1 or at the beginning of 65438+2, so as to maintain plant type balance and good master-slave relationship. By pruning, not only can fruit trees thrive, but they can also bear more fruits. For each technical backbone branch, pruning should be carried out every year, with strong branches remaining long and weak branches remaining short, that is, long branches 1/3 or 2/5 and weak branches 1/2 or 2/3.

Four, pruning fruit trees frequently asked questions

When pruning peach trees, we should pay attention to the balance between the angle of technical backbone branches and the growth potential. For the small branches on the added branches, they should be drained or shrunk in a cross, overlapping and dense manner, and other branches should be cut into 65,438+00 cm. For the growth and development of branches, it is necessary to moderately drain and bend the branches to be weak. For fruit branches, it is necessary to clarify the position, growth and development level, branch size and different kinds of fruiting habits.

Long fruiting branches should be thinned, with thick branches 12 cm, thin branches 8 cm, weak branches trimmed with 2 ~ 3 terminal buds, middle fruiting branches trimmed with 5 ~ 7cm, short fruiting branches thinned and kept robust, weak branches thinned and robust branches trimmed short.
