Pruning apricots is done with a lighter hand than some other stone fruit trees as they are susceptible to the disease gummosis which can enter through the pruning cuts. Use a sealant on the cuts. Remove dead or diseased wood or any rubbing together or crowding the center . Also take out weak spurs. Disinfect your tools as you work.
