There are a lot of knowledgeable people on YouTube, but not everyone is great at teaching. You're both..i really appreciate your videos

I have always been intimidated by fruit trees. Thanks for making it approachable.

This video was the best I’ve ever seen on pruning apple, pear and plum trees!!!! Thank you

[winrockywin]

Yes please! More pruning videos including grapes, berries, currants and so on.

James, I've been a subscriber for 3 years at least and this is the best, most thorough, intelligent, organized, simplified and uncomplicated, yet not long winded video you have done yet, imo. Excellent job!!
You have accomplished what many professionals, nurseries and homesteaders were not able to accomplish in one video regarding pruning fruit trees. Again, well done. Give yourself a raise and Tuck a steak!

This is one of the best videos I've ever watched about gardening and specifically pruning! So much helpful information!!! I've always been uncertain about when and how to prune my trees! And I didn't know the difference between pruning my apple trees and peach trees. Thank you so much for this video and excellent information!

[ElvisKatic]

You helped me find the best pruning shears on the planet ! After returning 3 different ones on Amazon, I bought Felco 7 that you recommended. Worth EVERY penny. Thank you.

You just shared some incredible knowledge for all of us newbies out here growing fruit trees in our backyard, and I thank you for it! I’ll be rewatching this video over & over again as I prune my trees this Fall. Thank you again and stay blessed JP & Tuck!

This is some of the best advice I’ve seen on pruning. Informative without being an overload.

[MissMom]

Thank you, James, for explaining all the whys - not just the hows! 🍎

[ronniemcmaster]

This is a lot of great information. Of most of the channels I follow, you, Paul Gautschi, Stefan Sobkowiak, and Mike Kincaid are the only ones I take note of when it comes to pruning.

[marysenatore]

By far the most informative video with regards to pruning that I have ever seen. I've always been confused of what to prune and now I can do it! Thank you for this

[tylerl.]

As someone that's never grown a single tree, I found this video incredibly informative and concise. You've inspired me to grow some fruiting trees. A desire I've never previously had. Thank you.

James such brilliant information on pruning. It all makes sense. I wish I had seen this 30 years ago when I was clueless! Many thanks for your efforts in producing your high quality videos. 😊😊

Whoever is doing the filming is Very Good. While he’s talking she is getting up close to SEE / show the views exactly what he’s talking about. THANK YOU CAMERA 🎥 PERSON

[thegardenguru]

Impressive tutorial on pruning. Thanks for sharing that with the world!

[chickentender]

I've paid for pruning classes that didn't help me understand as much as you did in the video. Thanks! Love Tuck ❤️ 😍 💖

[debrakasadine]

Thank you James for simplifying an important task! You are awesome!!💗💗💗🐶💗💗💗

This is amazing. It is about the Tree's 'psychology' more in detail. It helps so much to know WHY we do it and WHAT the thing we do something to it - does with it! Finally I got the pruning and instead just mirroring I can think like the tree. Thank you! And stay with the depth - the Beauty of Everything.
