>>20143988>unproductive tanglenot a bad thing
the less a tree produces, the less it degrades the soil and the longer it lives
it might be covered in fruit now, but its not healthier. when productivity is not the goal, pruning a tree is only detrimental.
without human interference, the vast majority of trees live for centuries or even millenia in the wild. no orchard is able to keep a tree alive for this long
