Fruit Tree Pruning - Codominant Stem

Pruning is very important in young fruit trees to correct any structural problems so the tree can grow in a good shape. Here I show a common problem, codominant stems on a mango fruit trees, and how to fix it. Instead of completely removing the branch prune it back to reduce the dominance. Reducing one of the codominant stems will help the mango tree grow a stronger central leader and branch out.

I hope many people benefit from not being afraid to train their trees in a wise way because of your teaching...!
