Five points for pruning pomegranate

Pomegranate is a deciduous shrub that combines ornamental value with practical benefits, known for its high light intensity, low cold tolerance, and weak trunk definition. Due to its sensitivity to pruning, improper techniques can lead to excessive growth or weakened tree potential. Therefore, the following five key points should be carefully considered when pruning. First, the tree’s trunk is not clearly defined, especially in courtyard settings. To protect it from livestock and pests, as well as to reduce space and enhance aesthetics, it's recommended to train the trunk to remain at least 1.2 meters tall by using an umbrella-shaped structure. In field cultivation, a flat vine system is preferred to facilitate management and promote early fruiting. Second, pomegranate has poor cold resistance, so it's important to delay winter pruning until late February to minimize frost damage. Pruning too early can weaken the tree and increase vulnerability to harsh weather. Third, combining winter and summer pruning can lead to excessive vegetative growth, which hinders flower bud formation and reduces both female flower rate and fruit set. During the growing season, it's essential to use techniques like bud rubbing, branch twisting, and thinning to control vigor and encourage better flowering. Fourth, pomegranate is sensitive to pruning, and both heavy winter and summer cuts can have negative effects. Excessive winter pruning may stimulate vigorous regrowth, while too much summer pruning can weaken the tree. Therefore, trees with weak vigor should receive more winter pruning, while those with strong growth (Wangshu) should be pruned more heavily in summer to balance their development. Fifth, short cuts should be minimized. Instead of cutting back many branches, focus on thinning out dead, weak, or diseased branches, as well as upright or crooked shoots. Only a few extension branches should be cut slightly to maintain balance. Over-pruning can lead to excessive growth, which is detrimental to flowering and ultimately affects fruit yield. By following these guidelines, growers can ensure healthy, productive pomegranate trees that thrive both aesthetically and functionally.

F: Why Suyzeko led bed can do high power to ensure the suing effect?
Q:
1. Special leds with lens and single chip, one whole light bar installation, avoid more welding, different from 98% led bed in the market. The following picture shows two kinds of Suyzeko redlightbed LED diodes, high-power big LED and ordinary small LED. The surface of these two types of SMT LED both have a lens for light focusing. Under the same electric power, the LED with lens can reach higher optical power and more light energy can penetrate deeper.
 
Besides, as shown in the figure below, the right LED strips have much more black resistors , so most of the electrical energy is consumed on the resistors. Under the same electric power, the left Suyzeko LED strips can irradiate higher optical power (more light energy.)(left one is Suyzeko's, the right is normal ones in the market)
 
 
2. The special frame design ensures the user's comfort experience on the basis of ergonomics, while shortening the distance between the LED and the human body. Ultra-thin organic glass cover ensures the effective penetration of light energy. The medium and the distance that LED light go through also affect how much light energy reach human body. Bed models generally require a person to lie on a transparent board, so the closer the light strips to the body, the better. And the numbers and the thickness of transparent board, the less the better.

So apart from the complicated physics, the simplest is to use a normal irradiance measuring instrument to test. (You can buy on ebay for around $100.) When testing, you should test it at different areas inside the red light cabin to get roughly average parameters. Many suppliers do not allow customers to measure their products in their showroom because they play a trick by putting the testing equipment close to the surface of one LED, especially infrared LED, to get a picture or short video with high optical power parameter.
 
Left picture: test inside the cabin and get 1263 W/m2=126.3 mw/cm2 (average)
Right picture: test on surface of LED and get 2893 W/m2=289.3 mw/cm2 (highest)
 
3. Taiwan imported chips and professional optical equipment ensure the accurate output of LED wavelength. Different wavelengths have different penetration abilities, reach different tissues, and produce different effects. Most devices among market provide 630-680nm red light and 800-1070nm near-infrared light. It is normal to have wavelength deviation for different LED devices, especially as working temperatures rise, but most of the center wavelengths are within the rated deviation range, generally ±5 to 10nm. In addition to longevity, this is why LED beds are so much better than fluorescent tube beds. For the fluorescent tube, the temperature is higher and the heat dissipation is poor, so the wavelength deviation is much larger and the treatment effect is not as good as LED bed. Therefore, the choice of stable LED diodes has a great impact on the treatment effectiveness. Poor quality LED has many ineffective consumption, in fact, a lot of ineffective light energy can not be absorbed by the human body.
 
Suyzeko customize high quality LED diodes with lens, and each batch need to be tested by professional integrating sphere instruments to ensure the stability.

F: What's Suyeko's led bed advantage besides the high irradiance?
Q: For a PDT light therapy bed, the capability to adjust wavelengths is also an important factor in the clinical treatment. As mentioned above, LED have the advantage of being controllable. In addition to different powers of light, and different wavelengths of light, there are also many clinical trials or studies on different frequencies of light, also known as pulsed light. Frequency is the number of times a periodic change is completed per unit time, and it is a quantity describing the periodic change. One hertz(1 Hz) means one change in a second, the equivalent of light flashing once in a second. Many studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of pulsed light for specific body part and diseases. For example, for brain irradiation, 10Hz pulsed light has a good effect on meditation and sedation, which can treat PTSD, anxiety and depression and other diseases; 40Hz pulse light has a good effect on memory and cognition improvement, which can treat dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's.
 

However, more details need to be proofed by clinical treatment about whole body irradiation. Many suppliers’ red light bed can only select several levels of frequencies as preset number. But Suyzeko LED bed provides power and frequency randomly adjustment functions, and it is separately adjusted for each wavelength. It provides more options for professionals to try different treatment options. Low frequency control is generally easy to achieve, while accurate high frequency is difficult. Because the human eye can not recognize high frequencies light, from vision the light is continuously irradiating when it is beyond hundreds hertz. Therefore, professional oscilloscope equipment is needed to do frequency testing.

Conclusion:

There is no doubt that the application of light therapy is becoming more and more widespread. As a non-invasive, drug-free technology, red light therapy is affecting the world. Different demands and ideas will bring out more different red light therapy bed models. Besides power, wavelength, control function, there are more other factors need to be considered when choosing a red light bed, such as price, after-sales service, warranty, bed size.
