Ulawulo lwezitiya zeti kukufumana amathupha amaninzi omthi weti kunye namagqabi, kunye nokusebenzisaiti pruners machinekukwenza imithi yeti intshule ngakumbi. Umthi weti unempawu, ebizwa ngokuba "inzuzo ephezulu". When there is a tea bud at the top of the tea branch, the nutrients inside the tea tree are mainly transported to the top, first ensuring the growth and development of the top bud, and at the same time, the growth of the side buds uthintelwe ngokwentelekiso. Ngenxa yoko, inani elipheleleyo lezityalo zomthi weti liyancipha kwaye isivuno asiphezulu. Ukuze ucinezele ubukhosi obuphezulu bemithi yeti, abalimi beti bahlala bebhenela ekutheneni, besebenzisaiti prunerukunqumla iingcebiso eziphezulu kunye nokukhuthaza ukukhula kwee-buds zecala kunye namasebe. Ngokubanzi, ukuthenwa okuthathu okanye okune kuyafuneka ukusuka kwinqanaba lezithole ukuya kwinqanaba labantu abadala ukukhuthaza ukusetyenzwa ngakumbi komthi weti. After the tea tree enters the official picking period, it needs to be lightly pruned every year or every other year, that is, 2 to 3 centimeters of branches and leaves on the crown of the tree are cut off, and the tea tree is trimmed mcaba ukwenza i-arc okanye indawo yokuchola ecaba. This will help tea trees sprout more and more uniformly, with higher yield and better quality, making it convenient for both manual and machine harvesting.

After years of picking, the tea tree has a layer of fine branches on the crown surface, often forming “chicken claw branches” with weakened germination ability. Ngeli xesha, ungasebenzisa aiti trimmerukunqumla i-3 ukuya kwi-5 cm yamasebe amahle kunye namaqabunga kumphezulu wesithsaba. Ngale ndlela, xa umjikelo olandelayo wamahlumela amatsha ehluma, aya kukwazi ukukhulisa amagqabi atyebileyo kunye namagqabi.
