Dr. Musacchi Please make more pruning and restoring of fruit tree videos. Your videos are based on knowledge and science, unlike many pruning videos on RUclips. Thank You.
YES, PLEASEDO CONTINUE WITH PROPER PRUNING OF FRUIT TREES !!! THERE ARE SOOOO MANY UNEDUCATED, HACKS OUT THERE RUINING FRUIT TREES F O R E V E R....like the one who came to my house and '"PRUNED"MY OLD, PEAR TREE THAT I HAD BEEN " NURSING" BACK FROM SOOOO MANY YEARS OF NEGLECT AND WAS EXPECTING A POTENTIAL FIRST "CROP" OF BIG, RIPE, WONDERFUL, DELICIOUS, PEARS.....THE FIRST IN MANY YEARS !!!! SADLY, THAT JOY, WILL NEVER HAPPEN FOR MY VERY OLD PEAR TREE. IT WAS BRUTELY, (I CAN'T CALL WHAT HAPPENED TO MY OLD "PEAR TREE PRUNED!!!!) FOR IN MY ABSENCE, MY PRECIOUS OLD TREE WAS PRUNED WITH A CHAIN SAW BY AN IDIOT !!!!!!! HE IS BEING PROTECTED FROM OUTRAGE BY THOSE OF US THAT HAVE A WORKING BRAIN AND KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWWEN PROPER PRUNING AND DESTRUCTIVE, SAVAGE, CHAIN SAW MASSACRE !!!!
Just watched again, Dynamic pruning...now I have a logical understand to what I have been doing through experience on the peaches, renewing the fruiting wood. I've got a Bartlett and Seckel to plant this year. So glad to learn so much so quickly. Saves me years of trial and error (which I don't have left, ha, ha). Thank you again.
Here's a nugget I pulled out for you. 8:45:00 "Pruning is a three-year cycle. Branches that are productive. Branches that will be productive. And branches for the future."
Thank you very much for your explanations and demonstrations. You did an outstanding job of making everything extremely clear. I have two 5-year-old Asian pear trees that I have been afraid to prune due to severe deer damage after the first and second years (they were broken completely to the ground, just above the graft). This year they produced a decent amount of medium-sized fruit, but both trees have a number of very narrow crotches (multiple leaders). Before watching your video, I wasn't sure how to approach pruning them to get them in better shape. But now I understand the concepts that will hopefully allow me to do so over the next few seasons. Thanks again and keep up the great work! ^_^
wow! I learned so much. Thank you. One question, blind wood, girdling and notching to encourage a bud, this is the first time I've heard of this. I wonder if the same process can be used for other plants such as roses. Nice new terms for me, bridilla, tira savia and chicken paw.
If the branch is to upright it will not be strong. The cords are bending the branches to 45° so they can grow more slowly and be strong. It is to train them otherwise they will grow Up.
Really excellent! I watched like 10 times because repetition is how one learns! I have an ancient Bartlett pear, do you think is OK to cut the entire top off? It seems they can grow so tall that they become unusable or out of reach. Again thank you so much Stefano, for the training video and excellent demonstration. I'm not a wood grower anymore I'm a fruit (big fruit) grower*****
I hope you get this. My husband works at a nursery and they went to throw out one of these and it had some green on it my husband brought home to me only thing growing is suckered on the side what should I do, is it a lost cause
What a great presentation. I wonder if the Barkblaster girdling tool would be perfect for the girdling portion. It auto adjusts to almost any diameter and super fast way to remove the bark
Very helpful because it was thorough with lots of visual examples. Thanks. When the Professor demonstrated one principle I couldn't quite understand the name of the principle. It sounded something like "fita sala" or "pita salia" or something like that. The term is used several times between 17:18-19:10. Can you give me the spelling for this term? Thanks, and thanks again for putting this together for us.
I have 2 pear trees that have not fruited ever...they are at least 6 years old and look very healthy. I is a Taylors gold and the other I'm not sure . Any ideas would help because I don't have the heart to cut them down. They are not near each other. I do have 2 pear trees in pots which bear very well
And at 16:11. The cameraman is awestruck by the speaker. Framing his entire body . Neglecting the the intended demonstration I want to blow my brains out
Best pear tree pruning video on RUclips! Excellent, and thank you very much for this lecture.

Very good video about pear physiology.The best i've seen actually.Thanks.
What is he saying at 3:55? 5 different "habits" ?
Nice catch at 27m. Thanks for the presentation, it was very informative.
Just planted a pear tree with 4 grafts. Thank you.
Very good video, well presented with clear instructions. Well done!
Thanks Sooo much!
What an informative video!!!!!
Graci Professore !!
Firstly, thank you for the excellent informative video.
Secondly, is that Robert De Niro up the ladder at 23 mins?

Grazie Professore per la bella ed interessante lezione.
I will be heading out to my pears in the orchard with much more insight. Thank you.
Excellent video, I have so much to learn.

we need more of these videos ...
Thanks for all the good information. I learned a lot from it!
Fantastic video - thanks so much.
Good info, only wish the camera was closer when pruning.
What’s the reason to tie threads horizontally and vertically with the tree branches? Plz reply.
If the branch is to upright it will not be strong.
The cords are bending the branches to 45° so they can grow more slowly and be strong.
It is to train them otherwise they will grow Up.
Thank you for the tutorial. Is this applicable to Kieffer pears as well?
A true break thru as pears like to grow upwards and tipping and bending are not the total solution in controlling upward growth
Ring cuts are the better option
Thanks professor. Very good explanation, i might decide to cultivate some pears next years.
Perfect. In my opiniões …maybe….The best. Thanks.
Thank you for Very informative video!

How would you do a formal espalier on a standard pear tree?
I hope you get this. My husband works at a nursery and they went to throw out one of these and it had some green on it my husband brought home to me only thing growing is suckered on the side what should I do, is it a lost cause
thanks so very much great video

Tira Savia, a pruning method. See minute 2:10 for the terminology they're using :)
literaly "pull sap"
...sounds more sexy in italian 😁
Great video, but please give me one explanation, some pruners said that is not aloud to cut one year lateral branches, and you did it. Why ???(min 10
I have 2 pear trees that have not fruited ever...they are at least 6 years old and look very healthy. I is a Taylors gold and the other I'm not sure . Any ideas would help because I don't have the heart to cut them down. They are not near each other. I do have 2 pear trees in pots which bear very well
Which variety is juiciest and taste best for you sir?
My pear has blight and I get masses of blossom but not fruit so hoping this helps
Double leader in pears resulted in a number of laterals at 45 degrees
I added like 667 ... 666 just didn't seem holy ;). Very good content here. I learned lots already and haven't even finished!
will girdling encourage a pear tree to produce fruit ?
Great video! can we use the tira savia in apples ?
Many thanks for sharing this.
I just found the answer to my question - I rewatched it an found the spelling of tira savai on an introductory graphic.
the technic of notcking work also for apple tree?
Alexandra Vasilică yes but when I did tho notching there was no results on the bottom
che peccato non conoscere l inglese nonostante ciò il video è talmente ben fatto che qualcosa ho capito. Complimenti prof!
Very informative.
nice
Same with the Peckham ?
Great thx!
Good methodology makes a lot of sense to me. Camera work could be better.
Particularly at the 15: 40 minute mark the camera person is to far away from the tree
The cameraman is paralyzed. Or mesmerized on the speaker
Well in a selected segment titled "spindle pruning in the orchard"
@@scootin123 and on the girddling and notching segment as well
And at 16:11. The cameraman is awestruck by the speaker. Framing his entire body . Neglecting the the intended demonstration
I want to blow my brains out
Going to fast and camera is too far, can’t see what he is doing
Nobody available who speaks clear English?
It's clear enough and English is not even my first language!
