Winter pruning apple related technical points

Young apple tree pruning to shape-based, both shaping results, spacing is generally maintained at 2m x 3m when using slender spindle-based, trimmed with sparse, combined with cutting back, to prevent competition branches, long branches, sticks maintain a good relationship with the main branch and subordinate dry.
       Early pruning fruit trees, any course is sparse, slow-based, according to affiliation requirements, appropriately adjust the tree structure, Thinning or reduce large, there is no room for maneuver of auxiliary support branch and Zhizu. Flowers and impact of existing smaller auxiliary support branch and Zhizu be made ​​to hurt the base, stimulate germination germination, cultivation update preparatory branches, pending the results after the discretion Thinning scissors or a reduction of the current year mainly sticks to the slow release, sparse cut combined to keep the main branch, Zhizu uniaxial extension, engraved buds continue to increase the amount of sticks, and laid a good foundation for entry into the flourishing time soon.
       The busy pruning trees to mitigate vigor mainly decentralized approach, first to increase the angle of the main branch, the construction should be as little as possible when sparse, low cut or not cut, carved in the annual bud branches and more on must Thinning or retraction of large branches that can be left to spend before, while appropriate to leave flowers to fruit trees pressure.
      Rejuvenation pruning is mainly weak tree vigor. Shear method less centralized stay flowers, Thinning weak branches, sparsely not large branches, not made ​​to hurt, concentrated nutrients, rejuvenation vigor.
