Abstract
1. These studies were performed to find out the most suitable time and degree of depth of the spring trimming before the first plucking.2. The plucking time of the first crop was not controlled by the spring trimming time in this locality.3. The trimming in April reduced the number of new shoots and the yield. The trimming at the beginning of March brought the cold damage to the leaves and buds frequently. So the most suitable time of the spring trimming was considered to be about 20th March.4. The most suitable depth of the spring trimming was considered to be 2-3 cm over the plucking surface of the second crop of the previous year. Too light trimming reduced the number of new shoots and the yield, and too severe trimming also reduced the weight of new shoots and the yield.
