Just a wee video on how I like to prune my feijoa trees. Not much to it really. Just tidying up the underside of the canopy, thinning a few branches and trimming some long shoots to either shape the tree or encourage more shoots and dencer growth.
Just make sure you give them plenty of water over the hot dry months. They will benifit from a little bit of tucker too. Feijoas like lots of food. Feed with high nitrogen NPK fertiliser in late winter and well rotted animal manure in autumn for a super heavy crop.
So, giving them some tucker is great but from my experience in most cases water is the biggest factor when it comes to yield and fruit size.
