Pruning and pruning apple trees to open branches is one of the most commonly used fruits by fruit farmers. Artificially changing the growth direction of branches, turning upright branches into oblique branches, horizontal branches or weeping branches, can effectively regulate the growth of apple tree branches, promote the formation of short branches, promote the transformation of vegetative growth into reproductive growth, and promote early flowering. solid. Now the simple answer to the time and method of pulling branches is as follows: The best time to pull branches of apple trees should be in June after the spring shoots stop growing and after the fruit farmers fertilize the apple trees. At this time, the temperature is higher, the apple tree branches are soft, and the back is difficult to remove. The pulled branches can quickly meet the requirements and are more conducive to the formation of flower buds.

In fact, you can pull branches in spring, summer and autumn. Compared with summer, pulling branches is the best, followed by pulling branches in autumn, and pulling branches in spring. The branches are brittle and hard, difficult to pull, and difficult to shape. , and the back is easy to pull, so it is best not to pull branches in spring. The method of pulling the branches of an apple tree can be: "one push, two kneading, three pressure and four positioning". "One push, two kneading" is to grasp the root of the branch and push and knead it back and forth repeatedly to make the branch soft; "three pressure" "" is to gradually press the branches downward to the required angle based on pushing and kneading; ""four positioning"" is to use ropes to tighten and fix the branches in order to achieve the required angles. For those thicker branches, branches that are difficult to push and pull, you can take the back of the base, and you can even see that the three saw paths have reached the angle that needs to be pulled. The depth of the saw should be about 1/3, and the saw spacing should be about 3 cm, and then Press Fixed.

The angle of the apple tree can be determined according to the apple tree species and specific tree shape requirements. Generally speaking, the permanent main branch can be pulled to about 95 degrees to 100 degrees, and the temporary twigs and auxiliary branches can be pulled to about 100 to 110 degrees. For the branch groups on the main branch, they can be pulled to a natural temperature. Drooping state promotes rapid formation of buds, blooms and fruits.

In short, by pulling branches of apple trees, you can change the regulation of tree vigor, promote the reproduction and growth of apple trees, and form flower buds as soon as possible. There is no fixed pattern for the specific branching time, branching method, branching angle, etc. Fruit farmers do it according to the specific conditions of their own orchards and the way they do business. As long as the apple trees can achieve strong growth and harvest, the farmers will improve their results. Your own financial income is the best.
