1, the growth and fruiting habits of plum trees. Autumn plum is a small tree species, which is strong, dry and weak, naturally open, with high germination and strong branches. Easy to grow into flowers. In those days, new buds can easily branch and form buds. The fruiting period is dominated by a large number of bouquets of fruit branches. Newly planted young trees, with good cultivation conditions and management, can bear fruit in 3-4 years, and enter the full fruit period in 7-8 years. The fruiting period is 20-30 years, and the highest is 40-50 years. Therefore, according to the characteristics of plum trees, pruning and thinning should be carried out moderately to adjust the contradiction between growth and fruiting.

2, according to the specific conditions such as fertile land and topography, cultivate and transform this tree. The soil is fertile and flat, suitable for layered planting; Barren land and sloping land can be cultivated or transformed into a happy shape or a cup shape to make full use of land and space.

3, according to the characteristics of strong photophobia. Sparse and dense branches. Less head, make full use of light energy.

4. If the management level is high according to the management conditions, you can leave more main branches and side branches to cultivate layered modeling; If the soil, fertilizer and water are insufficient and the management level is low, you can leave less main branches and side branches to cultivate small crowns and happy shapes.
