Pruning during flowering period: Pruning during flowering period mainly involves pruning dead branches, rotten branches, diseased branches, old branches, and overgrown branches and leaves to avoid affecting the growth of other normal branches and leaves and competing for a large amount of nutrients. Before pruning, you should use carbendazim to disinfect and sterilize to avoid branch and leaf infection and disease problems.

Pruning in late autumn: Lemon trees need to be pruned in late autumn so that they can store a lot of energy for their survival in winter. Cut off the poorly growing branches and place them in a place with good light conditions to ensure good air circulation.

Winter pruning: When winter comes, lemon trees enter a dormant period. Their dead branches and rotten leaves should be pruned in time to avoid affecting their growth and development in the second year.
