3 Reasons to Prune Your Fruit Trees in Summer

Pruning is SCARY - but NECESSARY! In this video I'll show you why I'm pruning a fruiting apricot tree in the middle of the summer, doing a HUGE prune on my loquat tree right as it finishes fruiting, and even removing ALL of the fruit off of my young citrus in its first year of growth.

[@garynorcal4269]

I heavily prune my apricot tree about every 2 years in the week after harvesting the fruit. A. Raise the canopy back up to 7-8 feet. B. Remove crossed branches. C. Restore inner air flow D. Top the tree at about 13 feet (where I can reach on a 6 foot step ladder. This year, this activity also removed 75% of a massive aphid infestation.

[@epicgardening]

Smart!

[@TamarLitvot]

I’m going to greatly enjoy watching your orchard grow. It’s been inspiring to watch you over the last year (started during quarantine). I don’t have the space or skills for anything more than some containers but I love learning from you. Because of you, last fall I gave growing garlic a try. I decided not to be hung up on getting the right seed garlic since it was just an experiment in an old container I had. I stuck 4 cloves (from a grocery store bulb that had sprouted) into a container with some potting soil in early November. Pretty much ignored them after that. I now have 4 small bulbs curing on my screen porch. They’re not brag-worthy and yet I’m very proud of them!

[@epicgardening]

So glad to hear this!

[@paige.eats.plants1887]

Did the same thing essentially with some wrinkly potatoes I found at a friends house. Just harvested 2 kinds of potatoes. I am so proud. In the process of attempting to buy a house in this insane market, so it could be a while, but I can’t wait to get my own productive garden going. I live in a similar climate to the lovely Mr. Dowding here in the PNW, and I am so excited to give his methods a try. Will probably do some container gardening as well.

[@TamarLitvot]

@@paige.eats.plants1887 so just plunked them into a container of soil?

[@paige.eats.plants1887]

@@TamarLitvot yeah, I also got a couple self watering plastic from the same friend and used that. Not an ideal container for potatoes to grow in, not even 12” of vertical space to grow, but still got a harvest. The potatoes did have sprouts, weren’t just wrinkly, and I also used a few inches of mulch on top to keep the sun off the tubers. Kevin had several potato videos for much better advice.

[@TamarLitvot]

@@paige.eats.plants1887 now you’ve inspired me to do potatoes as my next experiment. I know Kevin has some videos on growing potatoes in containers.

Great video! Thanks for the shout out for Dave Wilson’s Nursery channel. I went there right after I saw your video. Such great information on home orchard style pruning. I used to be so afraid to prune. Now I’m confident about managing tree size with a good summer prune! On my to do list is pruning off the fruit from my baby lime tree. Sad but I know she’ll have fruit for us next year!!

[@TheBusyGardener]

Bro, this is a great vid on pruning. Nice work! A note to remember in hot climates like ours is to avoid cutting out too much of the interior (which you DIDN'T do excesssively). Those leaves do a great job protecting your inner trunk and scaffolding from sunburn. Your trees are looking great! 👏

[@BrightestBlessings7899]

Good to know. We have an apple tree, my son planted 16 years ago,growing in a pot. It is in a 30 gallon oak barrel now and has just fruited the first time ever. I did just learn how to dormant season prune, but this should help too. This tree is getting way too big.

[@epicgardening]

Congrats on the fruit tho!

[@adronlamb9334]

Summer pruning an apple tree may cause it to not flower the next season. The buds will push out leaves not flowers. If it's that old of a tree that is now just fruiting, feed it some bone meal and then prune no more than 30% of the top when it's dormant. Not all fruit trees respond to pruning the same. I know because I've done it and that's what happened,skipped a year of apples on that tree. Cherries and other stone fruits no problem

[@lovelymillie1967]

Wow! The Loquat looked heaps better after you were finished!

[@Neenerella333]

I used to prune my desert trees in Phoenix, because the growing season makes so much weight, that storms will rip them out of the ground or break off branches. I saw my peach trees(new to me), getting too big and heavy. It just seemed natural to nip off new low branches, and sacrifice the lower fruit or ones out on long branches. I also cleared out the interior crowded branches, so I could reach the higher fruit. Seems like I did the right thing. Gonna nip some more in the fall, once the leaves fall.🤞

[@ceecee-thetransplantedgardener]

"Personal emotional support" ... lolol ... OMG, just love your sense of humor. Loquat - I grew up with these in central FL. As well as a number of citrus trees. As kids, we loved to steal the fruit from neighbors. Those trees got massive .. and, subsequently, diseased. For your entire orchard, will live through you vicariously.

Great vid, as usual! Our loquat tree is over 20 ft tall! The former owners shaped it into a shade tree...which isn't really that helpful when you actually want to be able to reach the loquats to eat them (and I'm only 5 ft tall). Sigh. Oh, and as a CA Master Gardener, I wanted to say that we don't recommend ever pruning apricot (or cherry) trees during the dormant period because of the risk of Eutypa dieback. We only recommend summer pruning for those types of trees.

[@ralph601]

What you say is true. I had some new citrus like the size you showed and removed all the fruit. By the next year, it doubled in size. The large water catcher you show at the end of the video, did you paint it black? And how is it connected to catch water? Water catching may be a subject for a video. Thanks have a great day.

This is perfect for me. I just started pruning my apricot and loquat tree. Rats were getting to the ripe loquats before I could but a bunch are still ripening; I even bagged a branch and they chewed through the bag. Is there a way to tell where loquats will flower? Not sunny/warm enough to produce sweet apricots but got maybe 30-40 this year. The tree is incredibly tall with branches reaching way too far out so I’m being aggressive with the pruning.

[@BinBombBush]

[@Lemonnnoomsno]

So I know that each kind of fruit tree you have is it's only one in the garden, but as I've known you always need another flowering tree of the same kind in order to pollinate and start the fruiting process. How is it that your individual fruit trees are being pollinated and fruiting? Is it because they are all citrus and that's close enough for it to pollinate?

[@virgiem1213]

So I found out that I have been growing a hallucinogenic flower for years, besides morning glories that is....Datura Innoxia (aka. Jimsonweed, Downy Thorn Apple) is a gorgeous large flower trumpet shaped flower that pollinators and hummingbirds alike really enjoy. They are completely legal to own and cultivate but the plant produces a chemical that makes a person trip out like on acid. Every part can get a person high, root stem, leaf, flower, seed or nectar... Obviously I'm not growing it for nefarious purposes but i thought it was a nifty little factoid about a plant I love.
