Key Technical Points and Methods for Light Pruning of Tea Plants
Light pruning is a shaping and pruning operation carried out on the basis of formative pruning, with the aim of continuing to develop the tea plant canopy and the plucking surface. The cutting position is generally raised 4-8 cm above the previous year's cut. For spring tea harvested with leaves retained, keep the spring shoots and cut off the summer and autumn shoots. For spring tea harvested without leaves retained while summer tea is harvested with leaves retained, cut off the shoot position above the true leaves retained from the summer and autumn shoots. If both spring and summer tea are harvested with leaves retained, pruning should be based on the net increase in height of the canopy surface, and the stubble left should not be too high. Light pruning is done with horizontal shears in a single pass to cut level, and the cuts should be smooth. Light pruning is best carried out in late autumn or

Detailed Explanation of the Key Points of Black Locust Shaping and Pruning Techniques
Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) grows fast, has strong adaptability and fine timber quality, and is an excellent tree species for afforestation and roadside greening in our province. However, black locust has very strong sprouting ability; if not pruned, it will grow branches all over the tree, so dense that air cannot circulate, thereby affecting growth speed. According to observations, properly pruned black locust has an average annual growth of 72cm, while unpruned trees grow only 49cm; with continuous pruning, it reaches timber and forest maturity 3-5 years earlier than without pruning. To achieve this goal, attention must be paid to shaping and pruning. Under natural growth conditions, black locust has strong branching ability and vigorous growth,

Goji berry winter pruning methods and technical key points
After a year of growth, the goji berry tree has many branches and a messy crown, and while new fruiting branches are forming, some fruiting branches have already begun to age. Therefore, goji berries need to be pruned in winter, otherwise the yield and quality of the following year will be affected. Through pruning, the old is removed and replaced with the new, retaining the old-eye branches and seven-inch branches with strong fruiting capacity, and cutting off non-productive branches, which can lay a good foundation for the old-eye branches to bear fruit and for new fruiting branches to grow the next year. Top pruning To make management convenient, the tree height needs to be controlled by top pruning.
