Light short pruning, generally not many branches need to be pruned, and only need to cut the blind part of the tip of the branch; short pruning, half of the branch growth in 1 year, leaving 45 to 50 cm of branches can be; heavy short pruning, the growth of a year of the branch 2/3 cut off, the next year, the new branch will grow out faster.
1, light short cut branch
Light short cut branch is generally the tip of the branch of the blind part of the cut, and need to prune the part is not much. Peach branches are cut short, it will increase the germination rate and improve the rate of branching. The number of branches growing too much will lead to branch growth is not fast, the new shoots grown more in the middle or lower part of the branch.
2, short and medium cut
The short and medium cut is usually half of the branches that grow within one year, usually leaving the branches 45 to 50 centimeters. The following year, the growth of new branches will be slower, but can maintain the plant's apical dominance. The number of branches increased, the branching power will be stronger.
3, heavy in the short cut
Heavy in the short cut is generally 1 year growth of the branches of 2 / 3 cut off, the next year to grow new branches will grow faster. Re-shortening is generally used for pruning to give the fruiting branches of the elongated type or the elongated branches as the main branch or extend the side branches. It can also be used to control competitive branches, upright branches.
4, heavy short cut branch
Heavy short cut branch is generally 1 year growth of the branch 3/4 or 4/5 cut off, the next year the growth of new growth will be faster than before. Heavy short cutting is generally used to prune the development of branches as the backbone of the extension branch, can be lowered, weakened branch potential.
