Thinning-off panicles at the length of approximately 1/3 in 6-year-old Hong Huay lychee trees at the pre-bloom stage during December 2000 to May 2001 at Buakchan Village, Sa-mearng District, Chiangmai Province resulted in increases in fruit setting and approximately two-fold higher in harvested fruit per panicle compared to those in the control. Moreover, the number of fruit setting on the bases was found to be higher in treated trees. However, significant differences were not found in the number of fruit drop, fruit weight, flesh weight or fruit size.
