Generally, the orange seedlings in the flowerpot are pruned 10-20 days before the bamboo shoots appear from August to September, and the terminal buds are subtracted from the branches in the current year, leaving 10- 15cm.

Reasons for pruning potted oranges:

First, the pot is small, the soil is small, and the nutrients provided are limited, which can not meet the needs of citrus growth and must be pruned;

The second is to adjust the rational distribution of nutrients in the tree by pruning, so that limited nutrients can be supplied to buds and leaves to form more fruiting branches, thus achieving full branches of flowers and fruits.
