Pruning to promote balance. Peach trees grow multiple times a year, which easily makes the canopy dense, with poor ventilation and light penetration, affecting flower bud formation. Therefore, after harvesting peaches, the crossing branches, overlapping branches, diseased and pest-infested branches within the canopy, and the vigorous water sprouts in crowded areas should be thinned out. For bare and empty areas, ringing (girdling) should be done to promote new shoots to fill the space and increase next year's yield. Thorough orchard cleaning and emphasis on prevention. Combined with shaping and pruning, clean up the peach orchard, remove the pruned branches from the orchard, and at the same time spray once with Jinlishi 6000x solution, 40% Guolong 12000x solution, and amino acid 3

Spraying to control returning pests. After harvesting peaches, warm and humid weather easily invites pest attacks, especially winged aphids and red spiders from nearby vegetable gardens and corn fields, which successively migrate back to peach trees to mate, lay eggs, and overwinter, gathering on the undersides of peach leaves to pierce and suck sap, causing leaves to turn yellow and curl, seriously affecting peach tree growth. Therefore, after harvesting, pesticides should be sprayed in stages to control pests and protect the leaves.

Supplementing nutrients to strengthen the tree. After harvesting peaches, nutrients should be supplemented promptly. Amino acids can be applied to the trunk, and organic biological fertilizer should be applied before leaf fall.
