How to cut a branch

Many novice gardeners believe that there is nothing easier than cutting the unnecessary branch on the tree. In fact, the occupation is quite complicated, especially if the branches are very big and growing at height. First, they must be cut, observing safety equipment, so as not to be hurt by himself. Secondly, the branches should be removed so that the tree after this "surgical operation" does not hurt.

The branches can be cut by the usual hand saw or garden electric. And the one, and the other should be well sharpened that the cut from the first time turned out to be neat. The greater the place of the spill, the more convenient to process it with a special protective agent. While working on the spilling of trees and branches, be sure to protect your eyes with special glasses. Work in a dense jumpsuit so that falling branches cannot catch up for clothes. If the trees are very high, then they saw them from the stepladder, or standing on the next branch and fastened with a protective carbine to the trunk.

Large branch with multiple branches cut into several stages:

First, with the help of a small saw or suchwhere cut all the branches. It is necessary in order for the future cut of a large branch, falling from the height, did not start breaking others.
If the spill branch is very big, that is, it does not make sense to cut it at once, but in parts: first the upper part, then the middle, and at the end of the one that is closest to the tree.
On the purified branch, begin to cut down from below, where it starts growth. At the same time, I spend at a distance of 15-20 cm from the main barrel, so that the bark does not occur at the full branch from the base from the base.
After the full branch of the branch from the trunk, remove the remaining 20-centimeter pasteen. If the slice turned out to be uneven, read it with a sharp knife.

The space of sleep should not look like a deepening or tower more than 1 cm. Also watch the sleep has been made exactly at 90 degrees to the main barrel. You can clearly see it on the picture represented, where: "A" is right, and "b" is not correct.

After the spill of the branch, its cut slices must be treated with a garden harder that can be bought in the store or make it yourself.

This processing will protect the tree from diseases: a special plastic mass will close a place through which bacteria and pathogenic organisms can fall into the wood.

The branches on the trees are spilled or deep in the fall, or the earliest spring. It is at this time that the trees "sleep", and they do not have active inaccation. If the branch of cutting very carefully and the place of sleep immediately smeared the booth, then the tree will survive this procedure painlessly and in the spring will necessarily bloom.

Spilute branches on trees in different cases:

in order to improve the quality of fruits (extra light branches are removed, and on the remaining fruits grow larger);
sanitary cleaning from dry and damaged pests of branches;
when high branches fall on the roof or hide the wires.

For whatever goals you cut the branches, make sure that you do not hit the current from nearby wires or so that you do not fall from the height.
