Pruning of Limero Trees: General Aspects

Why should trees prune?

Pruning is an activity carried out to remove parts of the tree in question whose purpose is to help the tree to grow with the structure and direction desired by man. In some way to have as much control as possible on size and delimit tree development. The greatest obtaining fruits and a possible increase in its quality is also allowed.

Tools to use.

To cut the wider branches it is better to use pruning chainsions such as the MG2600 model of Anova, while for the narrowest branches the use of a battery pruning scissors such as the TPB3006p of Anova model is better. Even for vineyards and fruit trees we can opt for the use of a teléscopica pruning as the D26C-PA model.

Keep in mind that the tools must be properly sharp to get the perfect cut and not damage the branch.Therefore, electric sharpeners should be used for these maintenance tasks such as the 99-1332 model.

After its use, disinfection is necessary to avoid any type of transmission of any type of bacteria or diseases. Lubrication will also be necessary for the proper functioning of the tools when performing the work in question, so it would be good to use some type of oil chain chain such as 99-604 or if it has a unbridled fat tubeLike the model: 99-171.

When you have to prune ?

Various types of pruning must be distinguished according to the moment in which it is done:

1. Winter pruning: It is normally done at the end of winter because the activity is quite facilitated since trees are usually without leaves or with very few of them which facilitates pruning, in addition to the best time to thetime to prune to avoid the greatest possible loss of savia.

2.  Green pruning: it is the one performed especially in trees with leaves. Thus, taking into account the desired state can be: 

• Late spring pruning: They try to cut the unnecessary branches that can negatively influence the correct growth of the fruit. 
• Autumn pruning: It is carried out when the harvest time is over to improve light entry and to avoid excessive development of the tree cup and thus maintain proper control of it.

Types of pruning according to the tree development time

• Training pruning: the purpose to be achieved is to achieve the desired direction while the tree is being developed and also during the first years after planting and during this period the planning and choice of branches that will be part of the structure are carried outmajor.
• Fruetification pruning: the main objective is to improve and achieve to a greater extent the correct development of the yolks and achieve the best possible growth of fruits and leaves. It is made during the tree production era.
• Rejuvenation pruning: Once the tree is already well formed, broken, old or sick branches are eliminated. Thus, it can be done at the end of the harvest and thus be able to eliminate this type of branches and limit its growth as well as possible.

Pruning of limits

One of the most frequent questions is about the correct pruning of Limoneros. As it is a very fruitful tree so that we can obtain the fruits of it we must perform a methodical care of the tree. Thus we must have a series of considerations when pruning the lemon:

• First, after having planted it, you have to wait 3 years before pruning and it should be taken into account that the best months to prune are: January-February and June-Julio.
• The main thing should be to cut the branches that are in poor condition to prevent the main branch on which the structure of the same will be formed.
• The lower branches must be removed and attempt.
• The selection of three main branches that can serve as a structure is important. So, they must be strong to endure the weight of the fruits.
• Always try to remove the secondary branches that come out of the main ones that can cover the light or grow turned.

Therefore, if we take into account all these considerations we will obtain a clean lemon with a structure of three main branches and with a few endings. Finally, when the spring time comes it is advisable.
