Here are 3 times you do NOT want to be pruning your fruit trees 👇🍎
❄️ When it’s freezing
Pruning below freezing can cause cold damage. Wait until daytime temps are around 40 to 50°F
🌧️ When it’s raining
Wet weather spreads fungal disease. Always prune when trees are dry
🌸 When buds start to swell
Once the tree wakes up, pruning can cause bark slippage and real damage
I’m also speaking at a 3 day live Summit Jan 20 to 22 🎤
I’ll be teaching planning and planting your home orchard 🍎 🌳

When you make thinning cuts, remove the whole branch but stop at the branch collar. That little ridge helps the tree heal fast and stay healthy 💪🌱 Cut too far and you slow everything down.
Clean cuts now mean stronger growth later 🍎🍑

One of the biggest newbie mistakes is cutting to the wrong bud 😬
Fruit trees want to grow outward, not into the center 🌞
Always prune to an outward facing bud so your branches open up and stay healthy 🌱
Cut about a quarter inch above the bud at a 45 degree angle and let the tree do the rest 💪🍎

First thing I always cut are water sprouts 🌱 They grow straight up, don’t produce fruit 🍎🚫, steal energy, and block airflow which can lead to disease 😬
Bonus 👉 you can prune them anytime 👍 And yes, the cat insists on supervising 🐈⬛ 😂

Here are a few clues 👀
Compound leaves that put on a serious color show in fall, shifting through reds, oranges, and yellows 🍂🔥
A clean, rounded shape that works well in streetscapes and yards alike 🌳✨
Small berries that form in clusters and are quickly claimed by birds 🐦🍇
Known for handling heat, drought, and city conditions better than most 🌆🌿
