Well, depending on where you are and what varieties/type you have planted, I thought we could share experiences and tips and maybe learn if I have pruned mine correctly. They are Apache, Navaho, and Arapaho thornless erect. I have 18 plants planted in december '03. I pinched all the blooms and berries off this first season, hoping to make them stronger. I pruned them about a month ago to about 3-4 feet tall all over. Some had canes 10-12 feet long! I have been having to spray fungicide because of this hot, wet summer and because I think they are getting Vermicillium Blight from tomatoes planted all over the neighborhood.
Thanks.
