- Bullseye Farms in Woodland kindly let us borrow one of their veteran pruners to talk through the steps of scaffold selection and training during the first dormant season of an almond tree.
The training style demonstrated here is Standard Pruning: 3-4 scaffolds, headed at 3-4 feet with all small side branches removed.
In some orchards, it may be appropriate to select up to 5-6 scaffolds. This style is becoming increasingly common.

Are you SERIOUS?!?! There's NOTHING LEFT !!! lol
For general the people can copy the prune in the vid.remember it´s a farm.If u like in home a more natural shape or the tree is allready an old u can prune in different ways! Dont forget that a wound sealing ( charcoal powder or beeswaxs)is eventually important! On the farm the trees grow with prunes all the year and remembering this.if you cut your almond the first time,make sure u dont damage him. Thanks for the vid and greetings from spain
great video this makes me feel better about all of my cutting decisions on my first year almonds!
This is art, doing it in flow! Thank you for the video!
It almost lost all its limbs...if only trees could talk...😁
Very helpfull and very well received! Thank you!
Thanks for video.Now I know how to not cut!
This is little bit of extreme, but I think his point is to prune for best fruiting and ease of picking, not necessary for the shape.
Shape is important as well. Keeping the center open allows better ventilation and less moisture to remain
If i cut a tree like that, my mother would kill me😂
I would never cut so much off my almond tree! That looked purely criminal!
AWESOME!
Great video - thanks!!!
This was a terrible pruning.. It couldnt be worse.
1st dormant season???? What are you feeding your trees????
Jesus man, you are a beast pruner, rough handling imho
Great video! Nice one!

OMG! Wasn't that too much??
Sir.why did not you just cut it from the very bottom? Terrible prunning

How not to prune Almond tree
There's no more branches to bear fruits.
That’s a nice trim man. When is the best time to prune my friend
Do you prune all of your friends ??
You need to leave some leaves or it will die … this tree will likely now die. I learned this lesson the hard way … with a clematis I loved & was 10 years old … all research said you can’t kill them by chopping right back … you can & I did.
I don’t know it is right way to do it but nothing much left of the tree
What year is that tree, do u prune all almond tree like that parde, butte ,Carmel etc
It was a waste of time to wach ur "job" poor tree. This isn't a correct pruning.
Hes completely lost hes making a center or what?
