• This paper studied the effects of debagging time and picking off leaves around fruits on the fruit quality and 1-year old shoots stored nutrition of "Red Fuji" apple. Properly advancing debagging time significantly increased the mean mass, anthocyanin content, and coloration area of the fruits (P < 0.05). Comparing with those of the fruits debagged on September 30, the mean mass, anthocyanin content, and coloration area of the fruits debagged on September 24 increased by 10.98%, 28.15%, and 13.44%, respectively, and the fruit firmness, soluble solid content, and titratable acidity had less differences. When the leaves within 15, 30, and 45 cm away from the fruits were wholly picked off, the light environment around the fruits improved significantly (P < 0.01), with the light intensity increased by 70%, 95%, and 115%, respectively, compared with no leaf picked off treatment. Picking off the leaves within 30-45 cm away from the fruits benefited the fruit coloration and anthocyanin accumulation. No significant e
