A Pruning Method for Improved Main Trunk Shape Suitable for Mountain Peach Tree Planting

Abstract

The invention provides a trimming method for an improved main trunk tree suitable for mountain peach planting. The trimming method is characterized in that trunk heading is performed in a sapling state (tree age equal to or less than 2 years), branches on the main trunk except for main branches are cut, the main branches can grow naturally till the length of the main trunk exceeds 1 m, then, side branches on the main branches are thinned every one branch, and long fruit branches are utilized for fruiting. After harvesting of peaches in season, the long fruit branches which fruit for the first time are thinned, and after 2-3 years of fruiting, the side branches on the main branches are thinned or retracted to replace the fruit branches. According to the trimming method, the problems of low yield and low fruit quality of other tree forms in the early stage can be effectively prevented, the trimming method is simple and easy to operate, plants can be reasonably and closely planted, early fruiting can be realized, and high yield can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of planting and cultivating mountain peach trees, and in particular relates to a pruning method suitable for improving the trunk shape of mountain peach trees. Background technique [0002] Peach trees are light-loving trees. The shape and structure of the tree directly affect the distribution of sunlight in the canopy, the formation of flower buds, the quality of flower buds, and the life of branch tips, which in turn affects the yield and quality of fruits. The shape of peach trees in southern my country has been adopting the happy, ring and Y shapes of the large crown under the condition of sparse planting, in order to adapt to the characteristics of the peach tree’s light-loving habits, but there are also certain defects, such as the happy shape and the ring shape. In the early stage of the shape, the yield is low and the forming is slow. If the management is slightly negligent, the inner bore will be bar...
