I just started pruning trees, two weeks ago and watching videos. You’re the only one that explains what happens to the branches after its cut. And that’s what I need. Thank you so much for helping me as a beginner.

This is by far the best pruning video I have watched. I’ve seen dozens and this is the only one that shows examples of what happens for each type of cut. Well done.

Hi James! Great video! Love seeing Tuck enjoying his carrots. I hope you’ll do a video on how to prune blueberry bushes. I don’t know if pruning techniques for trees translates over to fruit bushes? I’m a garden newbie so appreciate any tips!

Your videos and your enthusiasm for growing food rocks @JamesPrigioni ! XOXO

That was probably the best and most informative pruning videos out there! Thanks! I hope, you will put out another one that would explain the proper pruning strategy for the different types of fruit trees.

Check out Orin Martin's pruning videos from UC Santa Cruz, I've learned so much from them!

❤❤❤ for Tuck , thank you James for everything, God bless you.

I love these videos that give instruction on tree pruning. It's rather complicated when you factor in all the different trees types and how they grow. Thanks for the information and please do follow up with more pruning examples.

Thanks, James and Tucker. ❤❤❤ I've got some neglected fruit trees and a grape vine I can apply this to. This is a good explanation of what the cuts actually do.

Grape vine is a bit more complex as grapes will only develop from last year canes.

​@@keyd33Thank you. I'll keep that in mind.

This is the best pruning video I've seen. Can't thank you enough, James.

Love Tuck! Thanks for the pruning advice. I'm a seasoned gardener but the difference between thinning and heading has not sunk in till now. I appreciate your repetition.❤

Thank you, James. Excellent. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ for Tuck lying down to eat his carrot.

Glad to see that Tuck is still doing well! Always enjoy your videos and your energy! Thx for the update. 👍

James this is the best explanation of how and why I have seen. Thank you!

“Pruning is a stimulant” is an insightful comment for me…the right way to think about pruning! Thanks…very useful new knowledge…

There is a lot of how, but few explain the why the way you did. Thank you (and to Tucker)! Thinning, Heading, Bench (advanced Heading), Terminal bud, Angles, “Apical Dominance”… it all makes sense now. Can’t wait till winter to shape the trees.

Thanks a lot Mr. James, for such a nice presentation on the techniques of pruning a young tree by the various cuts, just keep it up.

Thank you for simplifying pruning for this beginning tree owner and garden grower! Love to Tucker 💗❤

This was so helpful! It’s been hard for me to understand how to prune my trees and roses to give them a good shape, even after watching many videos. This is a great explanation. Thank you❤

Thank you, James! Just what I needed to see before pruning my two trees today! You are the best!

I moved from New Jersey many years ago. I first went to PA. now I am in Illinois. Wish I knew you when I lived in Jersey. You are very informative in pruning trees. Off I go to prune my apple trees. Thanks again!

❤❤❤ for Tuck and his people! Good information as always thank you.

I'm not sure why I clicked on this video. I guess I wanted to see how much you knew. I was a professional for years and had an orchard in Indiana that I was responsible for. I'm now in upstate NY. Pruning is an art form. I really enjoy doing it. OKay, I got to say you did a great job. You hit all the points. If there was one thing I would add it would be to show the people how the bud you select to cut back to changes the direction of the new growth. You kinda mentioned it but perhaps showing how the buds point in different directions I think it would help those new to pruning fruit trees. But honestly, you did a great job.

Orin Martin from UC Santa Cruz explains this very well in his videos 😊

Best explanation I ever heard about pruning for effect desired and for the various varieties! Thanks. I needed this right about now here in mid-winter.

You are an excellent teacher and you share such important information. Thank you

Hi, James. I loved your "best seeds" video and shared it as I will this one. Congratulations on growing your following as well as a magnificent garden! Glory to God for the abundance we enjoy from the earth. Love to Tuck Tuck. He's the boss! ❤

Your explanation is so simple & clear, now I can prune my persimmon tree confidently! Thanks!

I. Love. Tuck! I need a gardening companion like that. Great video James. I have an ancient pear tree that could benefit from those two cuts. Thanks much.

Straight to the point, easy to follow, very clear and informed, terminology and definitions, UGH, thank you!!!!

the terminal bud/apical dominance segment was worth the price of admission all by itself ty James!!!

A great explanation of what happens with different pruning cuts.

This is the best pruning video I’ve seen! Thanks for doing what you do. Lots of ❤❤❤ for Tuck.

this helped me SO much. I've been trying to get a handle on pruning for so long. Thank you!!

I always learn something when I watch you - and as a Yorkie mom? Of courseI LOVE Tuck!!!

💙💙💙👏🏽💙GOOD JOB HARVESTING, CARROTS, TUCK!!

You are my favorite gardening channel and I love Tuck!❤❤❤

Really enjoy your videos with you and Tuck! Thank you.

Ive watched a lot of pruning videos and this was the only one that gave helpful information. Thanks!

Thank you!!! That was super understandable. I have an apple tree in my backyard and have researched how to prune. I've always loved your channel and this is why.

❤tuck is so cute looking for his own carrots. Nice video for pruning apple trees.

I have watched so many other pruning videos and yours really simplified it and really put it all together for me. Much thanks

Hi James 👋 thank you for the video and the info on looking after fruit trees .I did learn quite a lot from this video which will now put me on the right track for my trees.which were being trimmed wrong by my self. Love all the videos a very big thank you to all. Thanks😊

❤❤❤❤for Tucky! Thanks for another great video James!

Best explanation I’ve seen. Thanks

James, could you please teach us how to find out if the buds are flower buds or leaf buds on the different kinds of fruit trees that you have? And should the tree be sprayed with dormant oil and copper fungicide before and after pruning? Can’t wait for your next tree winter care video. Thanks!

Look at google images for your specific tree. On my peach trees the fruit buds are larger and fluffier than the leaf buds. As for leaf curl he has many videos but a Google search can help you with that too

Good job my friend

Yes, thank you!!! I’m in AZ and need all the help I can get understanding the Apple and peach tree that are in the backyard of the house we bought. Can’t wait for the next video!!!

Thank you!! The other hard part is to decide what kind of pruning to do. On the side note, I'd love to crochet a sweater for Tucker. I just finished crocheting sweater for my senior 16 and 2 month old P:omaranian and Lhasa Apso mixed (he's 9 lbs)

This has been the best video on this subject I’ve seen! More of these, please!

The most informative video I have ever seen. I have learned so much. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

Always great useful information. WTG Tuck and James ... hearts hearts hearts hearts to you two.

Thanks so much for all this info; it’s so helpful, as always! I can’t wait to see the second part and go prune my own trees! Btw love that sweatshirt! And always awesome to see The Boss chomping away enjoying everything he helped grow. ❤❤❤

Terimakasih sudah berbagi cara memangkas pohon buah buahan. Ilmu yang manfaat

When winter goes away, i'll start mine. Thank you! ❤❤❤

I used those felco 7 pruners when I worked for grounds maintenance. So worth the money if you’re doing a lot of pruning. Much less fatiguing

love that swiveling handle on the felcos.

This a fantastic lesson on pruning. The repetition is helpful to set it in memory and I appreciate it! Thank you for sharing the cuts you made in previous years. Seeing the outcome makes a huge difference. 🌳 🍏 🍑 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ for Tuck! 🐕

Hey James, well done! A very nice and informative video. I love the way you first use a small brench, acting as a tree, to show us viewers what you want us to know. A very creative way to clarify how pruning can be done by just about anybody. Great and good to let us understand what happens when you cut back a brench or even just a part of a brench, so people understand a tree(the roots) will always compensate what you have cut away, either by blossom/fruits or by new brenches.

Thank you for the simple clarification

Thanks for this informative video. I have been trying to learn how to prune for years, but I am one of those people that needs the explanation of why, when, where....and you shared that!!

My late aunt bought me a pair of those rotating handle Felco pruners almost 25 years ago (before I even had a house). They're still going strong and I think of her whenever I use them.

Thank You for the pruning lesson.

Excellent instruction James.

Such a great way to explain cutting back fruit trees, thank you! Going to trim my fig back soon since it has gotten huge ❤️❤️❤️

Cool lesson. He is so happy and human ❤ Tuck.

Ok James, I have watched all of your pruning videos and always appreciate each new one! Thanks from Kristy in Missouri zone 6b 😃🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Thank you. I got my two apple trees last October and since i only have a balcony in the city, I need to prune them well.

Love to see the winter content! Bought some seeds this weekend can’t wait to start planting. Sitting on my hands until then

Hi, First time, last few yrs planyed nectarine, peach, citrus, apple. Pear. Then i discovered pruning ive benn on a journey, learning for each tree. Your up close video, of the small model, clear simple explanation and results of two cuts has helped very, very much as i travel a little in February to prune a little more with what i have learned. Your a good, clear, fast teacher. God bless you and your life in Jesus name

Thank you James. Very interesting!

Thanks for providing great content and demonstrations! ♥️ good to see Tuck!
