Fertilizing Fruiting Trees after Pruning

After Pruning your fruiting trees, it is a good idea to give them some nutrients to kick start that growth.  I am in Texas where we have a very early last frost date so this is why I am pruning and feeding them in February.  In colder climates though, you might want to wait till late March or early April to start pruning and feeding.  When fertilizing our trees, make sure you give them granular fertilizer as well as the liquid stuff.  The granular fertilizer remains active for months, continuing to feed the trees over the course of leaf growth, flowering and fruit development.  Liquid though is important as it will give them a quick boost after your pruning and promote that growth right off the bat.
