The Secret to a Good Harvest Every Year: Do This to Your Apple Tree in June - Here's What to Ruthlessly Remove from the Tree

A summer resident, on whose country plot apple trees grow, should not forget about such an important procedure as rationing the fruits.

It often turns out that a fruit tree produces many more apples than the garden crop is able to “hold” and bring to normal size.

Of course, the apple tree itself sheds some extra fruits. This usually happens in June.

However, the gardener must help the plant by removing a few more apples.

An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told how to carry out this procedure correctly.

An important June procedure with an apple tree

In the first third of summer, the owner of a country plot must remove some small apples from the fruit tree.

In addition, it is worth picking fruits of irregular shape.

Thanks to this procedure, the gardener will noticeably reduce the load on the tree branches.

In order for the plant to start “feeling” better, approximately 25% of the small fruits need to be removed.

Pick these apples boldly: do not think that you are depriving yourself of part of the harvest. On the contrary, you are improving the condition of the plant and ensuring that it directs its energy to the full formation of the remaining fruits.

In addition, the chances of a high quality harvest in the following years increase.
