Pruning trees early in their life is important for their health and structure as they grow into adulthood. This video covers the basics of train pruning young shade trees. Important tips to remember include:
1. NEVER remove more than 25% of live branches at one time.
2. Avoid making flush cuts and heading cuts (such as "topping" the tree).
3. Keep the tree's final form in mind when pruning. Forms vary depending on species.
