How to Control the Alternate Bearing of Plum Trees? Practical Cultivation and Management Methods
1. Reasonable pruning to regulate tree vigor. On-year trees should be pruned early (before the onset of winter) and heavily. Remove dead branches, residual branches, slender branches, scorched-tip branches, diseased and pest-infested branches, and excessively dense, crossing branches. Do more heading back to stimulate shoot growth; for vigorous branches and competing branches, cut back hard, removing 2/3 to 3/4 of the branch or leaving only 3 to 5 buds. Thin flower buds early, prune away excess flowering branches, and reduce the fruit load. Off-year trees should be pruned late (around the beginning of spring), keeping flowering branches and thinning out non-flowering vegetative branches.
