Hi folks:
Is there a balance point for removing the suckers? As an example, I have
removed all suckers in past years and had tall plants with acceptable but not
overpowering yields. Other years I have left all suckers, had tons of fruit,
but marginal size. I have had better luck with selective pruning......and yes
I also cut back the tops to allow plant's stength to go to the fruit and not
the stems. I'd like some other opinions....Al
