Detailed Explanation of the Correct Methods and Techniques for Pruning Branches
Whether fruit trees, landscaping trees, or bonsai, they need to be pruned after growing for a certain period of time to improve their ornamental value and fruiting rate. So what are the methods for pruning branches? 1. What are the methods for pruning branches? 1. Twisting shoots is done at the semi-lignified part of a relatively vigorous upright new shoot, twisting it by hand so that the xylem and phloem are both injured at the same time without breaking. The injured new shoot droops or is pulled flat. Generally, when the new shoot is about 30 cm long, twist the young shoot at a point 15 cm from the base. Twisting shoots can transform vigorous water sprouts into fruiting branches, improve light conditions, moderate tree vigor, and prevent excessive vegetative growth.

How to increase the fruiting rate of loquat? Reduce humidity, cultivate fruiting mother branches, shape and prune, and apply additional fertilizer reasonably
Loquat is a fruit with high nutritional value. It is not only delicious and good in texture, but its leaves can also be combined with other medicines to make drugs. Therefore, loquat is welcomed by the market and people. In order to meet the needs of people and the market, the planting area of loquat is also becoming ⟦4 <p>Loquat is a fruit with high nutritional value. It is not only delicious and good in texture, but its leaves can also be combined with other medicines to make drugs. Therefore, loquat is welcomed by the market and people. In order to meet the needs of people and the market, the planting area of loquat is also becoming wider and wider. So how should the fruiting rate of loquat trees be increased? Next, I will share some methods for increasing the fruiting rate of loquat trees.</p><p></p><p><strong>Reduce humidity</strong></p><p>During the flower bud differentiation stage, loquat greatly needs a dry environment with high temperature and sufficient light. The flower branch bud differentiation stage of loquat occurs in summer, and there is more rain in summer, so drainage work must be done well at this time. In order to prevent water accumulation, drainage ditches must be made in low-lying areas with many pits. If the humidity in some orchards is too high, then when the leaves turn green, dig open the base of the loquat tree, expose the roots, and then cut about 80 percent of the branch roots into sections, thereby controlling nutrient dispersion, speeding up the greening of the leaves, and increasing the fruiting rate of loquat.</p><p></p><p><strong>Cultivate fruiting mother branches</strong></p><p>Because the fruiting branches of young loquat trees are all formed from summer shoots, the time, quantity, and growth capacity of summer branch bud sprouting are closely related to the fruiting rate of loquat. Therefore, a healthy and strong mother branch is the key to the number of fruits set, so in spring, after the new branches mature, fertilize in time to promote the sprouting of summer branch buds. During the fertilization stage, attention must also be paid to the amount, avoiding improper fertilization affecting the growth of loquat. Fertilization should be based on the growth stage of loquat, and the fertilizer is generally mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.</p><p></p><p><strong>Shaping and pruning</strong></p><p>The pruning period of loquat is different from that of other fruit trees. Loquat is an evergreen fruit tree, so it cannot be pruned in winter like other fruit trees. Loquat pruning should be carried out in summer, immediately after the fruit is harvested. Because the summer branch bud sprouting is the most important one for loquat, it cannot be too late, otherwise it will affect the growth of flower buds. Autumn pruning of loquat is only an auxiliary pruning, carried out before the flower buds open in autumn. Fruit tree pruning can reduce the occurrence of pests and increase the nutritional development of the fruit tree, thereby improving the fruiting rate of loquat.</p><p></p><p><strong>Apply additional fertilizer reasonably</strong></p><p>Loquat needs sufficient nutrients, so during the fertilization process, the demand for phosphorus and potassium is relatively high. Therefore, the proportion of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be increased in fertilization, and the use of nitrogen fertilizer can be reduced. Because excessive use of nitrogen fertilizer will cause loquat to grow too fast and have excessive nutrients, seriously affecting the production volume of loquat. Therefore, use fertilizer reasonably, increase the proportion of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, and improve the fruiting rate of the fruit tree.</p>
