Figs are generally 40 cm tall and topped.
In the first year, figs can be topped according to their growth, and the grown figs can be topped by 40 cm. The topping time of figs is generally in summer, which is the peak season for plant growth, and flowering and fruit setting are all in summer. Figs planted in the first year can also be pruned without topping, and then fixed after the end of winter.
The first topping is about 20 cm. Generally, there are many lateral buds under the terminal bud. After the terminal bud falls off, the lateral buds will germinate quickly and spread the leaves. Water and fertilizer management should also be paid attention to in the process of plant growth, and adequate water and fertilizer can promote the flowering and fruiting of plants.
Fig pruning is relatively simple, and the technical requirements are not high. Generally, the pruning method of natural joy and multiple main branches is adopted, and 3 ~ 5 main branches should be reserved when pruning, and no side branches are needed. In the young tree period, we should focus on cultivating the main branches, pay attention to improving the angle of the main branches and promote the growth of more branches.
After fig trees enter the first fruit stage, more branches should be cultivated to promote the increase of yield. Attention should be paid to cultivating bone branches and pruning weak branches, dead branches and diseased branches during the full fruit period. If the branches are old or have serious diseases and insect pests, sprouting branches can grow on the base or branches, and the main branches and branches can be replanted.
