1、 Pruning time

1. Summer: usually, it can be carried out from May to June in the north, earlier in the south, and not too early in the north. The purpose of pruning it at this time is to promote the growth of branches, so that it can blossom and bear fruit better

2. Winter: at this time, pruning is mostly carried out during dormancy. In northern areas, pruning cannot be carried out too late. It is best to carry out it in early spring, otherwise it will affect its growth

2、 Pruning method

1. Picking the heart: when the jujube grows to a certain height, the young shoots at the top need to be cut off, which can well control the growth of the tree. In addition, when the buds grow to about 5-10cm, they should be wiped properly

2. Thinning branches: this method is to make jujube trees grow more evenly and have more ventilation. Generally, it is to trim the branches of diseases and pests, cross, droop and too dense branches

3. Short cut: during its growth, the primary branch or secondary branch shall be short cut, and the specific short cut length shall be carried out according to the growth of the tree. There are also some longer branches, which should also be shortened
