① Training. The tree form can be natural open-center, multi-main-branch natural form, or Y-shape. For young trees, the trunk height is set at 30-50 cm. After sprouting, keep 5-6 buds as main branches; when the main branches are 50-60 cm long, leave 40 cm and pinch off the tips. In August, keep 2-3 permanent main branches, and pull the extra 2-3 main branches apart to make them droop, so they can bloom and bear fruit the following year.

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. Leave branches unpruned or bend them down to moderate tree vigor, retain as many flowers and fruits as possible, and increase the fruit set.
