I have an apricot tree that is getting close to 40 years old and has virtually never been pruned ever. It had always produced plenty of apricots but the last few years not so many. My question is can I give it an extreme cut back to bring it back to a more manageable height and size as it is probably 12 feet high ? Thanks 🙏

Would you please tell me what that hoop looking material is? That's for laying frost cloth isn't it? I would like to purchase some for my apricots.

Its a plastic poly pipe and is mostly used for placing bird netting over it to keep the birds out so they don't eat the fruit.

Thank you. Dad is doing well. He's still doing the occasional pruning with us and doing well at 88 years old.

@PianoMeSasha 2 жыл бұрын

what month do you do this in relative to winter...

@WGFS1 2 жыл бұрын

In the southern hemisphere here it can be done in June/July. Essentially it its timed while the tree is dormant and before the sap starts flowing as it emerges out of its dormancy. I'm not sure where you are located so I can't give exact month timings for you, but the above info should be a guide for your location, climate and timing of weather/seasons.

Hi Ken great Video ,im off to do mine.. Ken i have a very large apricot tree that needs cutting back to a more manageable height .If i cut it back to about 2 meters will the tree shoot or do i need to graft it to get it to grow. cheers Peter

@WGFS1 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Peter. Dad (Ken) says that if you're doing a Winter prune you can do a cut back to 2m. He used to paint any pruning cuts with a water based paint to seal the cut with any pruned branches that are finger thickness size or upwards. This is to prevent gummosis and also any bacterial spores forming on the cuts during winter time. Cheers, Steven

What a godsend video. I was looking for this type of explanation. Thankyou & God Bless. Sadly my tree is grown quite wide bc i did not know how to prune and is now quite large with all the fruiting buds on the edges. If i cut the ouside so as to make the tree smaller do u think i would get any fruiting wood from the thicker branches? I realise i might not get fruit this year but at least the tree is smaller. Thank you again🙏🏼

@WGFS1 3 жыл бұрын

I had a chat with Dad and he says yes you should get fruiting wood occurring and that fruiting should then occur in the following year. All the best.

Awesome video Mr "Dad"! Now I understand for the first time in my life how to do the apricot tree :-) The "frame " that you use there... is that some kind of plastic pipe?
