Tăieri în verde la măr: când și cum o facem | Ghid practic pas cu pas

Green pruning of apple trees is one of the most important summer jobs in gardening and fruit tree care. In this practical tutorial, done in the orchard, on a Florina apple tree, I show you when to do green pruning, how to remove greedy shoots and how to preserve fruit formations for next year's harvest. Video chapters: 00:00 Green pruning of apple trees – why, when and how to do it 01:03 When to do green pruning of apple trees 01:44 Why do we prune apple trees in summer: light, ventilation and fruiting 03:09 How to analyze the crown of a Florina apple tree 03:52 How to recognize greedy shoots and fruiting shoots 04:12 How to shorten shoots to 4–6 leaves 06:02 Which branches to remove and which branches to keep on an apple tree 07:50 How to preserve fruit formations for next year 08:36 How to remove greedy shoots from inside the crown 12:45 Cutting to the top or removing to the ring? Practical example 18:35 What does an apple tree look like after green pruning The timing of green pruning of apple trees is determined by the variety, the vigor of the tree and climatic conditions. The intervention must be done with moderation: we do not aim for a strong pruning of the crown, but rather to maintain the balance between leaves, fruits and future fruit formations. In this video you will see in detail: ✅ why light and ventilation are important inside the crown; ✅ when green pruning can be done on apple trees; ✅ how to recognize and eliminate greedy shoots; ✅ which shoots to keep for next year's fruit; ✅ how to shorten the side branches to 4–6 leaves; ✅ how to clear the inside of the tree without exposing the apples excessively to the sun; ✅ how green pruning, together with fruit thinning, can help reduce fruiting alternation. During the practical demonstration, I explain why I remove vertical or inward-facing shoots, when I keep a shoot to complete the crown, and how I choose between two branches that crowd together. The goal is not to cut as much as possible, but to preserve what nourishes the tree and eliminate what unnecessarily shades the fruits and fruit formations.
