    Best peach tree pruning videos I’ve seen! The explanation is perfect along with great video showing the different views/angles. Much better than the cooperative extension videos even. If you have a chance to do videos on older/mature trees that would be much appreciated! Keep up the good work!

    This is precisely what I needed!! To hear what you are thinking and how you are making each decision. I understood the general pruning advice available everywhere, but no one else was just going through showing us what to consider on all the cuts!!! Thank you!!!

    Thank you for the detailed explanation. I have 3 year peach and nectarine trees and your video is really helpful. I am in a local fruit club that has never explained or demonstrated young tree pruning.

    Love the video. I’m on year 3 for my dwarf orchard. I have 5 stone fruit trees with 2 peach trees. Last year was the first year fruit. I love the way you explain and shoot. Keep it up please!

    @Farm in the Middle I'd be really interested in some follow-up videos of this same tree, later this year and in coming years in order to see the results of your pruning decisions.

    from what I've seen on peach trees, we ARE going to have enough (leaves) :)

  • @newbie_nugs
    @newbie_nugs Před 5 měsíci

    18:28 on those 3 upper branches you're messing with right there. All those buds close together. Are those leaf/branch buds or are those flower buds?

    I didn’t prune my tree and now it already has blossoms today, is it too late to prune it?

    • @readwithstorybugs
      @readwithstorybugs Před 4 měsíci

      You can still prune it! However, you don't want to make any major changes or cuts now that it is getting ready to focus on fruit production. A light clean-up is still recommended even when you have blossoms.

    my friend much talking no actions I was tired

    You said in the beginning you were going to explain each cut, then made a bunch of important cuts with no comment. This is not helpful.
