The vine is made to form its head i.e., the part from which the branches start about a foot above the ground, and all the young shoots are allowed to grow, but summer-pruned or checked just beyond the last bunch of grapes.
Cherries can be summer-pruned to check excessive growth and to promote fruit-bearing, but as your trees have already begun to bear well, this treatment does not seem to be necessary. You should do fall and winter pruning for the shape of the trees. Training Cherry Grafts. I have grafted a lot of seedling cherries, leaving two or three buds on each piece of grafted wood.
When the young shoots appear, all below the trellis are rubbed off, but all those above the trellis are summer-pruned or pinched immediately beyond the last bunch of grapes, as in vineyard culture, and the trellis, with its garland of fruit, will present a very pretty appearance throughout the summer. I cannot agree with Mr. FULLER that the diseases of the vine are not formidable in this country.
