Citrus tree spring pruning method

Spring pruning of citrus trees can be carried out during the germination of spring buds. This pruning is mainly based on short cuts, which will shorten the result of the decline of the mother branch and the resulting branches and delicate nutrient branches, which can promote the sprouting of new shoots and re-flowering results. At the same time, the large branches that are obviously degraded at the top of the canopy can be thinned from the branches, and generally 3 to 4 per tree. The crowns of the crowns are crossed, and the cross branches, overlapping branches, weak result mother branches and result branches are cut together.

Pruning must be combined with fertilization and spraying to control pests and diseases. Fertilization can be mastered after the rain, or the application of a quick-acting nitrogen fertilizer at the acupoints before and after the germination of the spring shoots has a good effect on restoring the tree potential, protecting the leaves and accumulating nutrients for flower bud differentiation. However, it should be noted that it is not advisable to irrigate the fruit after harvesting, so as not to reduce the concentration of nutrients in the tree, which is unfavorable for flower bud differentiation. Pest control is mainly cockroaches, which can be sprayed with 15 to 20 times of pine sulphur mixture or 0.5 to 0.8 pm or 200 to 250 times of washing powder.
