- Never to late to start. I go over the first first year sharing how to INCREASE the LIFE & HEALTH of your PEACH TREE by Pruning in Back to Eden permaculture food forest garden.
This was fantastic. The pruning anxiety is REAL! Thank you for addressing that out of the gate.
It's SO real. I nearly gasped...no, I DID gasp when he cut the HUGE branch off. It took HALF the tree. *GASP*
I too suffer from pruning anxiety. Valium helped.
That was the best demonstration of pruning and why I have seen! Thank you , your efforts are appreciated.
THANK YOU.. I enjoy the work that goes into making them. And intern enjoy hearing from you...
Totally agree
Thanks for the good pruning education. One has really learned a lot. Your video came handy with valuable insight. Jabulani from South Africa
I'm living in my parents home now and my father planted a peach tree that's been pretty neglected since his passing 7 years ago.
I looked at it today and wondered, how can I get this tree in better shape and growing bigger peaches? Now I know I have a lot of pruning to do, thank you for your knowledge!
This is very helpful and just what I needed to help me overcome my fear of pruning my little peach trees!
Glad this was helpful.. THANK YOU.
Thank you so much. That was easy to understand and your camera work was very clear.
Great to hear. Enjoy.& THANK YOU. Happy Gardening.
Thanks for your information & great presentation,going to help lots of people.
So nice of you to say. THANKS
Mr Paul G. From back to Eden prunes that branch going straight up causes more fruiting on side branches and because of the weight of the fruit his trees branches bent downward and as tree got thicker those branches were permanent making it easy for him to get to.
I agree.. he has so much fruit he can not keep it of the ground.. THAT is a good thing. THANKS for watching.
Mark I love your videos. Always waiting for the next one. Always the teacher. It is your calling
THANK YOU.. I am more of the class clown type.
very helpful video just what i needed right now. thanks for sharing.
GREAT to hear...THANK YOU.
Have you ever tried bud-notching to bring what appears to be a dormant bud back to life? Notching involves making a small cut above a bud to stimulate growth. I am working with a newly planted peach and want to push out some limb growth below the existing scaffolds (which I think are too high). No branches are very large at all yet.
I have some confidence with this technique for apples but not sure how it will work with stone fruits.
It's a miracle that the peach tree that my Mother planted in 1992 is still producing. I didn't pay close attention to the tree as it was growing. Then one day in 2015 as I was sitting in the living room I saw a peach on the tree. The tree had peaches on every limb. So many until we had to tie the tree back to keep the branches from hanging to the ground. I still didn't cut one limb from the tree until 2021. In 2022 and 2023 frost got to it. This year I am treating that tree like a BABY! lol I will cut a few more of the thin branches next year. I am afraid to cut anything off now because again every limb has peach buds. Lastly I was under the impression that peach trees only lasted 8 to 10 years. I think my tree has proven that not to be true. I had so many peaches in 2015 until I bagged them up and stood out in front of my house and waved cars down and handed them bags of peaches. I live in rural North Carolina where everybody knows everybody. Thank You for your great advice.
Now THIS is pruning, boys and girls. A+
THANK YOU kindly. Have a great year forward.
Tomorrow i am going to prune my peach trees, and this video helped me. Thanks a lot.
I love that trees!
Great, Thanks
Very nice and informative!! Thank you for sharing your expertise. I’m going to prune my 3 year old peach tree in February so I can have bigger and sweeter fruits comes summer 👍
Here to share. And THANK YOU for watching.
My peach trees have been in the ground for exactly one year and are beginning to bud out. Great timing, thank you.
Thanks for giving knowledge today.
I absolutely BUTCHERED my peach tree today... but this video made me feel better. Maybe it'll grow back fine and I can do better next year.
I think you will do very well. Happy gardening.
Very helpful step by step demonstration. A miracle has happened in our townhouse community where a sector behind our homes was cleared and we all pitched in and bought fruit trees. Two are peach. After the first year we are going to prune them per your guidance. We are south of San Diego which I think is zone nine...?
THAT is REALLY GREAT NEWS. I am so glad to hear that it was a community type idea. Wishing you all fun and fantastic harvest in the future for many years to come. THANK YOU for sharing.
Great video, thanks, really clear. Winter in Australia so I am off to prune!!
Excellent, thanks, moved to Spain and new to peach trees after long years in Scotland. Great demo and I am off to the orchard to get started.
Sounds great! Enjoy.
Great video, thank you for sharing the knowledge
By the way I am affected by the dreaded fruit fly, gorgeous peaches in year one, riddled with maggots and inedible ( unless you like maggots)year two tried all sorts deterrents including locel custom of tying individual paper bags round the fruit, and still ended with fruit fly, year three picked before ripe and made delicious chutney. Also had to pick off all leaves with the red blobs on. Trust year 4 will be the best so far.
Thanks man I let mines go and one died. But back to the basics. Started pruning my life and now back to everything around me. If no growth, no need of it. And good consistent pruning always brings growth
You can do it.
THE absolute BEST! Thanks 😊
THANK YOU so very kindly. Have a great year.
good speaker, clear and brief and informatuve
Thank you Mark for the useful information. I will recheck my pruned peach trees (year old) and may have to make a few more cuts. My pruning saw leaves such a smooth cut on my apole trees. It looks like I used 800 grit sandpaper its that smooth! As always, very informative video. ❤️
Yes, you have a great saw there and THANK YOU for that information.
This is the most informative video that I have seen on pruning peach trees. Thanks!
Wow, thank you! Have a great gardening year forward.
Just moved into a new house that had a peach tree that's a few years old and never was prunned. Started pruning and looking forward to next year's harvest.
Enjoy it. THANKS
Wow new channel for me to save..great info
Glad to help
Good instructions. Much appreciated. Just bought a reliance peach tree. Going to prune it today. My neighbor has a tree and never pruned it. Branches flopping over. He has 2x4s supporting it up.
Wonderful! Thanks for sharing. And Many peach's in your future.
Nice video, I wish I had found this one first!
And I also see green.
I hope to stay that way.
greeting
100% agree. THANKS
I have learned more from this video than any other on CZcams thank you
That is very kind of you. Have a great weekend.
Thanks for info. Very helpful
Glad it was helpful! Thanks.
nice. now go prune an old overgrown peach tree.
will be waiting & watching for it...
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it. THANK YOU.
great tips Thanks Dave from Australia
Great video. Now I'm feeling confident to go prune!
You can do it! THANKS
Thank you so much for the lesson! Very helpful! We bought a peach tree this year and have no idea what's next... but we make sure we learnt from every mistake that we made each season.
Glad it was helpful. Thanks.
Thank you so much!
Glad it helped! And you Enjoyed it. THANK YOU.
Thanks for the tips. I planted 4 peach trees a few weeks ago in my back yard hoping for peaches in a few years. I am going to plant a few tress every spring. Watching videos like yours will definitely help me.
That is a great plan . Happy future peach harvest. Thank you for sharing.
You should plant in the fall
Great advice your a real pro thanks
THANK YOU, Have a great week ahead.
What a great video👍🏼Easy to understand and quickly to the point! Gotta go, my peach tree needs pruning!
THANK YOU so very much. ENJOY.
Straight to the point! Thank you for this tutorial
Hre to help and share. THANK YOU.
Thank you very much, great tutorial.
Here to help. Thanks
This was really good I pruned today my new tree but now I see I need to take a little more to open it up more to the sun
It will be fine. You can see that it was the correct thing to do. THANKS.
This was an excellent video. Do you have one on how to prune Italian prune trees or would you prune it the same as you did this peach tree? I just planted my Italian prune this spring. So should I prune it next year? Thank you.
You did great job on your tree. Now on my tree, I leave most of the short pencil thick branches and also make a heading cut at a outward facing branch, not a bud. The little hairy limbs give best fruit.
Will look into that and try... THANKS for sharing
Good advice
Here to help. Happy gardening
The timing of this is amazing! I'm zone 6, have a 1 year old peach tree that is starting to bud up, and I was suspecting that I might need to prune it, and now I know how!!!!! Thank you
THANK YOU... You have a FANTASTIC Channel. Looking forward to watching & learning. Just sub...
I AM ORGANIC GARDENING thanks so much 😀 I'd be a hazard to myself with more space, lol, but I try and make use of what I have
Thank you
Great to Hear, Thanks
Excellent job
Very helpful illustration. T.U
Glad it was helpful! And THANK YOU.
Great film, thanks
Many thanks!
I just want you to know you made me feel SO MUCH BETYER .. I pruned my tree SAME as you but I felt guilty like I did too much .. but I think I did ok thanks!!
Always here to listen and share... THANK YOU.
Very helpful. I have not heard about the importance of "red wood"
Another great learning video! Thanks
THANK YOU, that is very kind.
excellent! i'm going to prune my little peach tree tomorrow.
Wonderful! Enjoy.
Wow. . This is the best video ive seen on pruning.....i have never pruned my daughters peach tree. .hopefully its not too late..its 8 years old..have to wait for fall weather now..😒
THANK YOU...
Thank you for the Video.
You bet. Here to share. THANKS
Best video I’ve seen by far. Only one question. Why would that one branch possibly break if it’s more than 45 degrees?
The weight of all the fruit.
Good teaching..im a beginner...
Glad to hear that. Always here to help and share. THANK YOU.
Wow amazing 🌷🌷🌱❤❤
Thank you! Cheers!
First part of video correct. The the first limbs are very important I agree.
THANK YOU.
Thank you!
THANKS
Thanks for the video. It was very helpful! If a fruit tree has gone too long without pruning, can it be corrected?
Yes, correct
Not a science! Just what I needed to hear! Thanks
Glad it was helpful! THANK YOU.
Nice ..
Thank you! Cheers!
this was the most helpful and step by step ive been needing to see. can I ask though...when is it too late to prune? I have a 2 year peach tree thats not been pruned its got a ton of branches I know should go and buds all over it now. much larger than the ones on your tree. should I wait?
Yes, wait until the fruit sets an grows to the size of 1 inch.
Great, thanks
That's a lot of useful information Mark. Keep up the good work!
THANK YOU so very much.
GOOD INFO, I APPRECIATE YOU TAKING THE TIME TO EDUCATE US WITH YOUR EXPERIENCE....I WAS WONDERING IS IT TO LATE TO PRUNE MY TREE I BOUGHT FROM HOME DEPOT AND IT ALSO HAS FRUIT ON IT ALREADY
No. Not at all. It might do better to prune because you are just planting it also. Less stress on the tree. THANK YOU for asking.
Thanks for your answer.
Thank you for the informations realy appreciate it
My pleasure! THANK YOU.
If you use that wood from the last tree you showed to cook or heat you didn’t really loose 25 bucks,, nice job ty for the video ..
Good video. I have a new bare root 3 in 1 peach tree that I just planted and it’s thick with foliage in the middle. I won’t do anything this year but I’ll thin it out in the winter this year
Perfect.. But if it gets to over grown in the middle you can prune. The only time you can not prune is late fall before cold weather.THANKS
Thanks for the tips!
My pleasure.. And THANK YOU.
Just bought 7 from HD and planted in July. Zone 6 as well. Should I wait for a little after planting them in the ground to prune? Also, what if I can't cut to make my scaffold that low, say I could do 4ft? When I bought them, they already have a semi long trunk. Thanks for anyone's advice
Thanks, I will try this technique on my apple and pear trees.
Hello, This should ONLY be done on peach trees.. Apples and pear need a different type of pruning. THANKS
Mark, do you have any apple trees that you could demonstrate proper pruning on?
Very good video. lots of great tips clearly detailed. I am sure you planed it, but in the end, it looks like you removed all of the 1 year old fruiting wood, so you will not really get any fruit next year, but will have good shape. I would have left a few of the 50cm red fruiting wood segments, like the fist cut after the central leader removal (4:30) looked good to keep.
Question: Do you need 2 peach trees to produce fruit? I only have 1 tree which had numerous flowers this spring, but I'm concerned it won't have fruit later on. I'm learning so much! Thank you for taking the time to teach.
No , you do not need two trees for peaches. Enjoy
I have a peach tree that's in its second year with me and I have five fruit total on it. The tree itself is 8 feet tall. One of the fruit already looks ripe- nice and soft- but it's only golf ball sized. Is it because I didn't trim it down enough? It's pretty full of leaves and there are even leaves just growing out of the stalks as well as on individual tiny branches.
Great video, but I didn't understand "facing downwards" at 4:34. Can you elaborate? Was it coming off the main branch downwards, then up? Thanks
Thank you for all the videos, Mark, but YES! I was totally confused about that as well. Can you please explain why that branch was “facing downward”? Thank you ahead of time.
I can see your point about facing downward. What I meant was that is branch I cut was downward facing because it was a strong branch just under another main branch.. And if left it just grow downwards. Hope this helps explains. Thanks
I like your videos because you know what you're going to say. Good work. Also, I'm sure your readers know you shouldn't leave a stump when you make a large cut because it may cause witches broom sprouts. Best site for this info.
Thank You. You caught what my future video ( in a few months ) is going to be about. Yes, it can happen that way. But also I can develop a new scaffold branch. But I am not sure. so I decided to test and show the results. I can always go back and cut again. THANK YOU for sharing.
Excellent - thank you. What are your thoughts on pruning after trees have flowered?
It will slow the tree down but it will not harm it. You will lose the fruit. But better than a broken main branch with to much. THANKS
Thank you, I have a peach tree has some black glue on it how I treat it🙏
You can also prune peaches into blossom time I have many times but when you have 20 acres of peaches you get behind.
Great info.. That is a lot of peaches.. Very nice to see.
After purchasing a one gallon potted peach this past winter, I transplanted it into a big barrell type pot. It is growing nicely but had lots of shoots growing down the trunk. It is early summer in Florida now, can I still prune the tree back?
Hi! Thank you for the video. Do your peach trees make gum when you prune them?
My 1 year old peach tree has what looks like sap coming out of the limbs. Any ideas or remedies? 😮
I thought we do not want to leave a stump like that, but instead, cut close to the branch below....to prevent dying back.
I knew to look for the three buds, but not that they only produced on the red wood. Thanks
Great. Thanks
I want my tree to produce fruit and shade at the same time so I can move and nap under it.
What pruning technique I can use???
Hello I have to correct you sir . You can have 4 main branches mostly used on peaches and other varieties ,2 leader and center leader. 3 branches works to but sometimes the tree may split when too heavy with fruit with 3 oddly pruned branches. Great video though.
Will look into that.. THANKS
I did the same prune .. center cut to give more circulation and sunlight
Good video! Do you do the same with plum?
Yes I do!
Can I prune my fruit trees on winter? I'm bought lots of trees. Have zero knowledge about pruning and fertilizing. I thought just watering them. And expect produce fruits.
Hey, thanks for your great explanation! It's been a very helpful guide. I do have a question; I was told to protect my whole (new) peach tree during winter with a special bag, that covers the leave and branches. Could you tell a little more about that? For example what material would be good to use (bubble plastic, nylon-bag, anything?). Thanks, I'm looking forward to more feature videos.
I have never done that or know very little about it. Sorry. And THANK YOU for watching my videos.

Great video. I had a peach tree from Costco from new year( 9 months ago) but know I have a lot branches I wonder should I trim some to make it look good or wait until February? Pls help
i would wait..
Great info...we live in NW Florida and planted a dwarf peach tree earlier in the spring. My tree is growing well...maybe too well.? I have two very tall single branches shooting straight up. We are in hurricane season now and my fear is that this tree may just bend in half during a storm. Can/should I prune it back now or just let nature take its course?
I would stake it.. Let it grow this year.
