Hey there as well as welcome to Gubb Farm. Today I'' m going to be pruning the newly planted hazelnut trees. I will certainly also be trimming the trees that we planted year, so I'' m pruning two and tree-year-old trees. So for the brand-new trees a lot of them are just single. At around 80 to 85 centimetre'' s and that is to create scaffolding. cuts to quit any type of microorganisms going in between the trees. I simply utilized a depleting fluid. container as well as an item of string. So I'' m utilizing the fence message. which is 90 centimetres high, to assist me identify where I'' m mosting likely to place the. cuts on each tree. I'' m aiming to place a cut at the initial considerable bud below that, so it must be around 85 centimetres.There ' s a
great deal of discussion about what is the right. elevation to top these hazelnut trees at. Some people are saying 60 centimetres if you plan. to do every one of your work by hand that will certainly give you a great deal of growth around this location and also implies you. can possibly manage the tree from the ground all the time. I plan to use machines to harvest. them and also perhaps to do several of the trimming, so I desire a bit much more height. One more reason I desire a bit even more elevation around the understory is to permit for companion planting of other plants. So I'' ve picked making my leading cut at around 85 centimetres, which is the upper end of the array that'' s frequently chatted around, and then I expect then to obtain four possibly five scaffolding branches. off that. You can see the the buds are roughly maybe 5 centimetres apart thereabouts. this is 90 centimetres as well as I'' m just gon na make a cut simply over the following bud. With these single stem. leaders it ' s all fairly simple one cut and off you go.So we'' ll see if we can discover some. extra fascinating ones where you have competitors in between leaders as well as then we take a look at a few of last. year'' s planting and also do with a bit of pruning around them. So between each cut I am placing the shears in. the holster. I'' ve used 70 %alcohol as well as it'' s said to kill most microorganisms within 30 seconds. I explored making use of bleach as well as it will work if diluted regarding 10 to 1 yet it does take a great deal. One of the effects of using alcohol is it makes your hand rather cool. Not sure why that is but your fingers get actually cool very swiftly. Wait let ' s got some growth right into it and also. that one can wait till following year. I ' m just mosting likely to top it. The basic guideline of thumb is. try not to eliminate greater than 25% of the tree when trimming and also often that ' s tough if you ' ve obtained. two competing leaders and you need to lose fifty percent of the'development and also they are the cuts I don ' t like making. I ' m not thinking about creating scaffolding branches down. reduced so you take the low ones. There ' s very little growth there so we simply leave them. So all'of these branches below should be able to contribute in the direction of the scaffolding. branches that we will certainly establish growth on. It doesn ' t need the supports anymore so once again. So once again we ' ve got 2 branches contending for management, so there can just be one leader. I put on ' t want this as a. scaffolding branch but I ' m leaving it to help feed the roots this year and. after that following year as I'obtain more development. I will remove that so if you ' ve obtained a tree that ' s. terribly thick and out of form you wear ' t have to you shouldn ' t do all of your trimming in'one. hit you can surprise it over a number of years. It ' s nothing but dead at the end. If you do a cut and also it is brownish timber, it'' s dead. Once more an interesting one. We ' ve obtained. The mistake I made last year, as well as if there ' s one point I wish I didn ' t do last year, was I went about as well as I dug up all the weeds around the trees and I completely threatened the the root. And the trees that I left alone they had truly good origins they didn ' t. I'' m just going to clip the reduced ones don ' t desire that branch but I ' ll leave it for. want this little stump. Again great deals of good branching but the issue is it ' s all too low so I ' m going to reduce below about 85cm once again. These'two are just at the bottom of'the array, I ' d love to cut this off but I desire to remain within the 25% rule. This'is rather interesting.This is the centre.'leader yet this branch is expanding the greatest. I ' m just mosting likely to pick'the. greatest branch make it the leader. There ' s one two tree four. need to be some development right here.
This ' s taller than this. so do away with the competitors.' I ' m just mosting likely to leave this. for now to to aid feed the tree.So this is a nicely formed tree to end up off on. I ' ve got one'two tree four 5 scaffolding. branches all entering various instructions. This one ' s getting fairly long. I ' m simply going to.
trim completion of it to encourage it to branch. and this is what you ' re looking for you ' re. searching for these scaffolding branches to enter each direction'and also have a nice open goblet.'structure. In time you ' re aiming for maybe 8 branches as well as an excellent starting point is 4 to five.So that ' s it the trees are pruned. It took around maybe 10 to 12 hrs to do 2100 trees. I. was following him on Twitter called Mark O ' Hanlon as well as what he does is he gets the branches that. he has actually trimmed from his hazel trees and he makes them right into wreaths or even more particularly bases. for floral designers to utilize so what I ' m going to do. I ' m going to walk around and get a few of the. I can obtain one or two'wreaths from each tree, you recognize it ' s possibly maybe the best part . simply go and check the marketplace so in the next video clip you reach see me learn how to make wreaths. which should be funny. I ' ve had a view on eBay and it appears like they do offer for 5 six pounds so I expect wholesale to florist will certainly be around 4 extra pounds so you understand it could be a. significant income. So until following time "Best of luck'". Today I'' m going to be trimming the recently grown hazelnut trees. The mistake I made last year, and also if there ' s one point I want I didn ' t do last year, was I went about and also I dug up all the weeds around the trees and also I entirely threatened the the root. And the trees that I left alone they had truly great origins they didn ' t. I'' m simply going to clip the reduced ones put on ' t desire that branch yet I ' ll leave it for. Once more we ' ve got one 2 tree branches.
