Prune a lemon tree by cutting back random branches one-third each year after the tree is done producing fruit in the fall. Trim lemon tree branches at a angle with tips from a sustainable gardener in this free video on gardening.
A lemon tree is a beautiful attachment to any garden. Definitely, the scent is purely magic. However, These tips of pruning lemon tree is a brilliant idea and I am sure it will ripen correctly. I will value your advice.
Bullshit. The only reason to prune citrus is the removal of dead or cross- branch. Sterilization of shears IS indicated to prevent spreading disease (exocortis, tristezia, et al).
This theory is completely contrary to other theory here on you tube, which claims the lemon tree is "closed canopy" tree, do not let the sunshine hit the bark,it will hurt it….(i.e. do not open it up like other fruit trees as peach or apricot)
Everything you were taught about plants is a lie. The pruning guide is wrong, you cut at the collar, if you don't it will produce suckers. The line is there for a reason, cut at the line.
Thank you for the detail on where to cut a branch and why. I feel this is valuable to most trees, and finally there's a reason. I have trouble just doing what people say. It's not how I live. Sure, if you've had a lemon tree for 20 years, I could do what you do. But without the WHY I'm going to be back soon asking a lot of questions I should be able to figure out.
Note the line in the branch cutting section. It starts at the point where the branch makes a v. It looks like a perfect cut, on a perfect branch uses that… Center of joint of the band carries it down away from the trunk.
“Rule of Thumb” !!! The husband is allowed to beat his wife with a stick no larger than the diameter of the man’s thumb. Are you sure that you want to use, “THE RULE OF THUMB ?”

Lemons are frost sensitive and trimming in the winter can add to the potential for frost damage.

Be sure not to trim them more than 1/3, then make sure to trim them at least 1/3…seems like inconsistent instructions. Maybe I’m misunderstanding?
Excellent except that we needed a life demonstration.
It's about that tatty nail polish! I cannot focus on what she's saying!
