The biggest difference between short branches and long branches is that they are more likely to bloom. Too many flowers consume too much nutrients, which is detrimental to the growth of branches and affects the spread of branches. All flower buds within 30 centimeters of the branches should be cut off. Lose. Its branches are short and the leaves are small, and the fruits are easily restricted when they expand. Therefore, pruning can break the embryo to promote germination and make the fruits of higher quality. In addition, if there are too many branches, they should be pruned in time. Just prune large branches and old branches after fruiting.

The biggest difference between short-branched Fuji and long-branched Fuji is that short branches are easier to bloom. Usually a branch can produce flowers from the top to the base. Too many flowers will consume a lot of nutrients and be detrimental to the growth of the branch. In addition, it will also affect the spread of branches. Therefore, all flower buds within 30 centimeters of the branches can be combed out to ensure that the branches can extend and grow better.

2. Broken fetus to promote sprouting

Short-branched Fuji grows early, has short branches, and small leaf area. It is easy to restrict fruit enlargement, so it is unfavorable for fruit enlargement. During production, more attention should be paid to promoting branch germination and expanding the area of leaves to increase fruit size. When pruning, only one bud should be left 5 to 7 buds apart. Weak flower buds may burst. This can not only reduce excessive consumption of flower buds, but also promote short and medium branches, increase leaf area, and make fruits of higher quality.

3. Prune branches

If If there are too many branches, nutrients will be excessively dispersed, which is not conducive to tree growth. Therefore, the number of branches must be controlled. The number of branches per mu should be controlled between 60,000 and 70,000. If there are too many branches, they should be pruned in time. Just prune large branches and old branches after fruiting.
