Methods of pruning tangerines1. Trunk After planting the mandarin orange, the main trunk needs to be determined and it needs to be cut off 35 to 45 cm from the ground. After it grows new shoots, some unhealthy and weak branches need to be cut off, leaving only 3-4 vigorously growing branches. 2. Topping and pinching When the branches of the mandarin orange have not yet grown to maturity, you can do the topping and pinching work, which means pruning off the tender leaves on the top of the branches. This is done to control its growth height and promote stronger growth of the branches. 3. Remove new sprouts When the newly sprouted branches of the mandarin orange grow to 1-3 cm, the buds need to be removed. When the buds on the branches are uneven, all the buds should be removed first. This can promote the germination of new buds of the mandarin orange. 4. Shorten If there are long branches growing during the growth period of the mandarin orange, they should be appropriately shortened. Generally, one-third of the branches should be pruned. If the branches grow too long, they should be cut back to half of their length. This can help the branches grow and mature and is also more conducive to the sprouting of new branches. 5. Pruning during dormancy During the winter dormancy period, all the dead branches, diseased branches, crossed branches, and branches and leaves that affect the appearance of the mandarin orange need to be cut off to reduce nutrient consumption, promote its growth more luxuriantly, help it survive the winter, and produce brighter flowers and more delicious fruits.
