I had some older friends that had a 40 ft cherry tree. They said that it was too tall to pick the cherries. I cut it down to a 6 ft stump. They were were concerned and questioned why I cut it so low and now it was only a stump.. I told them well you will not get any cherries on it this year.. but next year you will.. and it will have a whole new slew of branches to pick cherries from... It filled out beautifully that year with about 5 new strong branches, and the next year all those branches bore fruit. They had so many cherries they didn't know what to do with them. It was loaded... and the next year even more... all at pick able height. They asked me to do the same to this large apple tree.. but I did not cut the tree into a 6' stump like I did the cherry tree... different animal. But I did cut off all the water sprouts & cut all the crossed branches & cut the tips off all the new growth back to 5 leaves/buds so those buds would all bear fruit... They did.. had them thin the apples to 2 per cluster, the king apple and the next biggest, and some clusters just to the king apple. They could not believe how big the apples got. They had me prune every year ad every year they gave be a box of huge apples. This year I had to cut my pear tree off nearly at the ground, because something destroyed the lower half of the trunk almost half way around the circumference. Don't know of it was an animal.. my riding lawn mower.. sunscald from the 2pm winter sun hitting a frozen trunk.. I know it had some of that. But I let 2 new branches come up from below the damage and cut back the tree to just a 7ft trunk so those new branches would get some sun.. They developed nicely and I fill a 55gallon barrel of water right next to the trunks of those 2 so the sun would not hit the trunks last winter.. worked great. Now I got to get out there before the sap pushes too much and cut that old damaged trunk off just above where the new trunks are. They are feathered pretty good and will spread them and train they apart. Not sure if they will bear fruit this year because sometime those pears need a couple years to bear on new wood instead of 1 like most other fruit trees do. But boy that tree bore some of the biggest and best tasting Bartlett pear... hope that tree works out after the reconfiguration..

@Helga____28 күн бұрын
Where I live we have big meadows strewn with apple trees. Mostly the apples are used for apple juice and cider, so generally the trees are left alone to grow as they want, dead wood and all. Maybe a limb or two gets cut off when they grow old, but that's it. But I'm going to play out pruning scenarios in my head when I go walking now 😁🌳🍎🍏

From the perspective of a guy newly out on his own starting a tree service I LOVE seeing videos like this. I find it so valuable when you talk about your business and what you’ve learned over the years. Sure, there’s nothing better than watching videos of giants falling out of the sky. But this kind of stuff is personally what I need to learn most right now. Thank you Buckin’

I did a probably insufficient prune on my apple tree that has never produced (under shade from other trees). It got flowers this spring so we will see. But we let it go for too long and it has 3 vertical shoots that are like 20 feet tall. I'm thinking about cutting the 2 less dominant shoots way back or completely off, and maybe topping the dominant shoot. It is far too vertical, but I definitely don't want to kill it.

I've always heard to cut the runners that go straight up, and keep the sideways branch, worhs for me. I've trimmed my apple tree to the core, and it pops back everytime. It's a 40 year old tree though, it's established.

I have four apple, three peach, three fig, and one plum tree. Most are well established about fifteen to twenty years old. I prune them a little every year and the third year they get pruned back quite a heavily. If I don’t do this mainly the peaches will get leggy a limbs will break when the fruit is near ripe. I prune a little different but similar to your style. I really enjoyed your video on this subject great stuff !! Just wondering what variety of fig your wife planted. I have two Chicago hardy and one unknown.

>99% chance an amateur will screw up a young tree. For the best health, longevity and yields, I highly recommend having a fruit tree professional do the pruning for the first, second and third years. For those of you who care to know why, I recommend searching the websites of agricultural universities and their extensions.

Great job! 1st goes off dry and broken limbs, then those which compete with the tree trunk and those which intersect, at last we can adjust the shape, length of branches, make it more airy etc... That is time consuming and neck wrecking (with big trees) job.
