L. Heilig retired Michigan State University Horticulture Educator discusses 3rd year training (pruning) of an apricot tree
During the 3rd year, you can see that most of the growth is at the top of the tree. Our goal this year is to prune the major branches by removing upward and downward growing wood, dead branches, crossing branches, suckers at the base of the plant, and by making bench cuts to continue to encourage outward growth.
