Apr 26, Root pruning should be done starting at apple bloom and up to two weeks after full bloom. Earlier timing will stress trees sooner with greater tree response and later timing will give less stress and, therefore, less tree response and vigor control. Tree vigor and crop load will impact the success of the root pruning operation. In the situation of high tree vigor and a light crop load, the tree will be less responsive to the pruning.

Extremely vigorous trees can be double root-pruned Estimated Reading Time: 4 mins.

Pruning bearing trees is critical to maintain healthy fruiting wood. Remove weak, “shaded-out” wood, diseased or dead wood, watersprouts and root suckers.

Control tree height by cutting back the top portion of the tree to weak lateral branches.

For flower buds to develop well, all branches of the tree should be exposed to adequate sunlight.
