Thank you. I enjoyed watching this. At first i was bothered by the lack of spoken instructions, but then i realized that i am actually learning a lot just from watching and really playing attention to which cuts you are making.
You've also given me the confidence to take on a 7(?)- year- old cherry tree in my yard that has never been properly printed. I may never have had the courage to cut so much. Looking forward to seeing the results in the years to come!
Glad it was helpful!
It was neat to see from the pruners point of view. One gets the idea of what the goal is then starts to select what the next cut will be. It is victory when you guess correctly. This is a superb teaching strategy! I get it now! Thank you!
Excellent video series. Love that you show and say only what needs to be said. Your music choice is yours. Love to watch you prune.
Thank you. Would be nice if we could see the same trees next summer.
Of course 👍
Thanks you. The videos are amazing from your perspective. Not only around the tree but inside the canopy when you look around.
Loved this video. Seeing the trimming from the pruner’s point of view really teaches a lot. And I loved the music 😊.
Thank you.
Love the dog in the background. Oh, yeah, and also love and have subscribed to your videos. Very helpful for a novice who hasn't pruned in the four or 5 years since I planted the 2 trees that had a decent fruit production last year (2023), but couldn't reach the majority of them!
Welcome aboard!
Awesome video, thanks for this!
Love your pruning-videos!
Thanks for this! Very helpful to see! Even better when you explain a bit more in later videos. Keep it up! You’re doing great!
Glad it was helpful!
Presumably it could also be used on other stone fruit like apricots, peaches, nectarines, damsons, green gages, sloes, but it would depend on how they are being trained.
I am going to try it with my overgrown Victoria plum but my apricot tree is in a greenhouse and it has escaped out of the roof and has survived the storms and frost in winter.
Wow,
How wonderful to find such a video.
I have 2 Cherry Trees, Rainier and a Bing, supposed to be Dwarf tree and it grew to 25-30 ft for we have not prune at all for 10 years.(no experience)
The tree has 3 main stems and each grew straight up. After 5 ft it started 5 new branches like an upside down umbrella and then repeated on the next 5 ft and so on. It grew very big and less than 10 fruits per years.
Thank you for the video. The hardest part is to have the gut to cut the main thick branches that grew so big and by cutting it seems like a waste all these year but a sacrifice must be made for better fruitful year to come.(no guts no glory I guess). Excited and scary too. 10 years are a long time.
May I summarize or ask the ideas from the video, we are attempting to do.
1. To trim all middle stems to make a clear opening in the middle.
2. Leaving the side branches and trim it down to make like figure of a bowl correct?
3. I have 4-5 sections, like stacking 5 upside down umbrellas on top another.
* do I cut all upper 4 umbrella branches and leave the bottom one alone?
4. It is September(Zone 5) - can we proceed to trim it now or what month be best to approach this major over haul?
Thank you so much.
1. you can
2. yes
3. leave it
4. late summer is good for pruning
It was necessary to make a video of how these trees grew back after pruning.
hands of professional...respect!
Thank you.
멋진 수형 감사합니다
Great video
Forget the music. Discuss what your doing, why you're doing it, and how it benefits the tree.
Sorry, these are just my beginnings, here you can find out more ua-cam.com/video/yYF8Ym_5jXM/v-deo.html
Judgmental ass
@@killjoyredux8361 How is that judgmental and why call me an ass?
He’s fine. Nice energy in his videos
Pay more attention, nube. His actions speak for him.
I love this video as I am a visual person and learn quicker from watching than talking. Thank you! I will try my hand at my cherry tree that only has a central stalk and bore damage. I do fine with other trees but my attempts at cherries over the years have been failures.
Good luck☺️
I don't know anymore about pruning a cherry tree then I did before. Can't say the video taught me anything... Nice music.
If you have any questions feel free to ask them maybe I can help.
I studied pruning whilst apprenticing, using the RHA study guides and practising...So I 'understood' what @cherry farm was doing, and the experience of the operator.
Basically if starting out- remove dead, damaged & diseased wood first; whilst aiming to create an open bush overall...
If you watch again, he took out those inner, crossing, dead limbs, so the Tree has a Goblet Shape (or wide shallow Champagne Glass) Shape.
All that inner growth was Chopped / Lopped out. Simples.
Means the Tree has room to grow outwards and have Branches that will be better long term. And have more Fruit !
I saw the difference and I don't have a Cherry Orchard, just a Two Metre (x8 Foot) Tree that birds eat all the Cherries off before I can even pick them or reach them. Off to get my Loppers out. . . Chop chop. 😂
@@mmb_MeAndMyBees ....I know it's hardly compensation - but well done growing a beautiful sounding fruit tree that feed the birds 💙 as well as the souls of everyone who sees it's beauty 😍
Cool video :)
Amazing! I have an old orchard. Probably the trees are over 30 years old. The plums and sour cherries have never been pruned before. This autumn I have to clean it up, but don't want to cut them off, so your video was perfect for me. I hope I'll be brave to try an "extreme pruning" like yours. I know is what the trees need, but it looks scary :(
You can always do a less pruning ;)
Prune a maximum of 50% of the branches, if you prune more than that then there is a chance the tree will die.
Sir you doing wery well
He is better and better, isn't he?
It helps a lot, and thank him for that :)
hi, great video. what 'mixture' you use for good healing of the cuts? thx
Grafting wax or fitobalsam.
Wow that looks aggressive. I have one remaining cherry tree we bought from Tractor Supply and it's 20 ft tall. I tried netting but still the critters got them all. So I'm going to do this pruning and cut the height down. Maybe make a structure around the tree and finally get a cherry. Thanks for showing us!
You need to spray it. Can also make a wasp/fly trap and hang it on the tree. Bees would not be attracted. Over here we use lime to paint tree trunks, but searching for the name (whitewashing) looks like it doesn't help against bugs.
@@alexgunner1882 by little critters I was thinking for of birds, chipmunks, or squirrels. They either found an opening in the netting I couldn't find, or reached through the mess. I'll have to set up a camera. I did trim it so maybe I'll make a hardware cloth enclosure.
Thanks for your videos. Always amazing.
But, please advice brands of equipment (cutters) you use.
I jave a big problem with my ones. Definitely, fiskars is not good anymore...
Felco,makita,kuker
Thank you so much for the showing. My rainier cherry tree has never been pruned too. If I remove some 8 year-old branches of the tree, will I get some new grow branches near the cuts?
That is the point of prunning to get new branches.
@@CherryFarmEurope Thank you so much for the answer. Can I prune those branches in summer or fall to get new branches? Or should I wait till early spring to do it?
@@winnieho6595 the advice where I live is to prune in summer or spring as they are more likely to get infections in winter
@@ryanertime Thanks.
Why do you leave a stub? I've seen on other videos to cut smooth to branch
👌💕Great video, Thanks for sharing
Thank you.
Best video yet! I have watched & watched & watched. Finally I get "it". I have 3 mature trees that need "help". Those thicker stems are left quite long? Is this for structural integrity so to promote more younger wood? I thought younger wood closer to the base would encourage better production? Would there be much fruit produced on these thicker stems or do you rely on the younger wood to produce the bulk of the crop?
Cheers Peter
Of course, this was the goal of renewing the tree with as many young shoots as possible because they have the highest quality fruit on them.
@@CherryFarmEurope Clearly I've been far too timid! I get it: you want to prune agressivley to encourage new shoot growth for best fruit. Will two year old shoots set fruit as well?
@@vermontsownboy6957 high probability it will
@@CherryFarmEurope Well, I'm going to find out and report back. Soon as the dandelions start to pop, I'll ruthlessly imitate what I saw you do.
@@timyarrow8844 I hope the pruning will be successful. Report results.
What's the thing you applied near the end? And do you have a shopping list for the tools used pleased
It's a grafting wax , chain saw and loppers xD
Brutal, I don’t think I could be that agressive
If you are scared you can do 30% of this pruning every year.
@@CherryFarmEurope I hear that over 30% puts it in survival mode and shoots a bunch of branches out. So this may be a good idea.
What would be the expected tonnage per acre/hectare in the current season after a hard prune like this? What would be an acceptable tonnage per acre/hectare in future years and how long to get to maximum production? Last question, how many trees per acre/hectare?
This form is more for the garden, not for intensive production because it is very difficult to pick the fruits. The quantity depends on the variety, but there are about 30-40 kg of quality products.
과감한 컷팅 좋아요
좋은 톱 없이는 아무것도
I noticed you don’t make your cuts on major limbs and secondary limbs at the cowl. I was taught not to leave stubs because they can rot. Instead of healing.
What’s the benefit to leaving the stubs?
Thank you.
Due to less chance of infection with viruses and bacteria. The stubs are left mostly on stone fruits.
Is this a sour or sweet cherry, and does it make a difference in terms of pruning? And can one prune late winter/early spring, i.e., before the buds come out? I have a Montmorency sour cherry, 20 years old, that bears fruit but the cherries are very little and I'm hoping a serious pruning might help.
No, for sour cherries watch this video ua-cam.com/video/skwsgZ76j1c/v-deo.html
How can you tell the difference between a branch that's already had fruit and needs to be cut off, versus one that will still bear fruit? @@CherryFarmEurope
Hello, May I ask how to prune a cherry tree that has not been touch for 10 years.
It grew quite tall say 25-30 ft.
Some of the branches grew out of the main branch and it is 7-8 ft long and swing like a flag pole.
How much do I need to cut them back to say 3 ft?
And we have multiple main branch shoot straight up how much do I need to cut them back from 25 ft tall down to say 10-15 ft?
For 10 years I have 10 fruits max. It kept on growing taller and taller.
Thank you so much.
If you have a problem with the amount of fruit, it is not a problem with pruning and height, but other factors such as the weather and a high chance that your cherry tree is self-infertile,and needs a pollinator.

I have a 30 yr old cherry along with about 15-20 other fruit varieties on the property we just bought. Buying my chainsaw next week wish me luck lol
AHAHHA good luck and be careful with the saw.
@@CherryFarmEurope thank you. I will be very careful. We got a logging company in the family, I don’t take tree work lightly.
I have a 20 years cherry, it only has flowers but it doesn't have cherry every year, my neighbor's cherry is very good. Thanks
It depends on the variety, maybe you need pollinators or low temperatures will destroy your flower.
But my neighbor has one, it's ok thanks
@@CMAu-gm2gz Your neighbor's tree may not be the right kind to pollinate yours. I understand cherries need cross pollination - not same kind of cherry (although some can). I have a bing in the back yard and a rainier in the front - just barely close enough if the bees are good to them. I know of no other cherry trees near enough by, and my trees did very well last season - they are about 3 and 4 years old.
How can I do? Thanks
Does a montmorency cherry tree require a central leader, i.e. large branch growning straight up the middle?
It may or may not depend on the desired shape. It's up to you to decide.
When should they be pruned? My tree needs it bad, but I am afraid to trim it and damage it or something.
late winter , early spring.
Can you cut it back until there is only bold wood left until 10 foot or so? Now my cherry has climbed like a 32 foot pole with only flowers in the top. Which is way too high!

Здраствуйте я из Киргизия.
У меня два сорта черешни Свитхарт и Регина. Подскажите пожалуйста какая обрезка подходит эти сорты?
Открытая ваза или веретено.
I think new blossoms/fruit come from wood that's 1-3 years old right? So you are opening the tree up, as well as reducing then number of fruit bearing limbs, which are 1-3 years old? Does that make sense? I have 2 Montmorency sour cherry tree's that I've done nothing to, cause I don't know how and am scared... kinda. Last year had a ton of berries, this year ZERO. So I need to ramp up my pruning skills.
Pruning is not always a problem, perhaps low temperatures and poor pollination destroyed the crop.
Is it too late to prune a sour cherry tree with 0.5 to 1 inch (2-3 cm) leaves? No flowers yet. It's May in southern Alberta. Last week we had snow on the ground this week it's Summer. It happened too fast. Didn't have time to do it earlier.
No, you can do it.
@@CherryFarmEurope Thank you, will do it tomorrow. These videos are great help!
Which one is better natural cherry or kgb? Which one you suggest?
For garden natural - for orchard kgb
Can you please explain the difference between natural cherry and kgb?
@123 456 Natural tree have lower quality fruit and can grow very big , kgb is controled system made to produce large calibers fruit.
@@CherryFarmEurope Pozdrav KGB sa 25 grana nakon 10 godina starosti kako pomladiti stablo koliko ukloniti dali će biti video?
Am unul identic, soiul lapins, plin de fructe în fiecare an, nu am tăiat decât crengile uscate, anul viitor voi face rărirea ramurilor din interior și scurtarea celor exterioare.Pentru că a prins vreme ploioasă exact când trebuiau culese fructele s-au stricat în pom si a trebuit să-l curăț creangă cu creangă. 😞 Mulțumesc pentru film !!!!👏👍
Doar dă-i încet copacului timp să-și revină.
Este vorba si despre monilioză, sau mai ales ! Iar tăierile de aici nu sunt cum ar fi trebuit, lasă multe cioate care nu sunt cepi, La „sezon agricol” de exemplu se pot vedea tăieri de maestru
👍
How many different trees did you prune? It made it confusing, because I thought you were working on tree #1 and you were on tree #2 or #3.
#3
@@CherryFarmEurope thank you
How did you position yourself safely when using the chainsaw at considerable heights above ground? Fall protection & protection from falling thicker branches is very important else the unexpected pruning may take place on the pruner! 😆
I have good skills xD
Can you remove tap roots. My tree has one running along surface of lawn
Of course you can.
When should this be done?
In dormancy
При таком формировании деревьев черешни в наших краях ветки получают солнечный ожог. Летом температура поднимается на 43-44 градусов.

It looks like the basic idea is to remove all inside branches, all downward growing branches, and to top off the ones growing too tall.
Now I know what is wrong with my cherry trees.
OUCH!
If we're supposed to learn from this, the camera needs to show the whole tree??
Drugo si zajebo
I'd like an explanation for all of this butchering before I try this.
The tree is too tall, which makes picking difficult and the fruits are very small.
My cherry is also 15 years old but it's like double the size of yours.
A Lot depend on the soil, variety and rootstock.
Здравствуйте почему вы оставляете пеньки после мотопилы нас всегда учили обрезать под самый низ
Косточковые плоды чувствительны, поэтому их необходимо оставить подольше из-за возможности пересыхания и занесения различных заболеваний.
Very intresting video like and sub 👍
Thanks!
Ottima potatura ma i tagli sono troppo alti lasci dei monconi non rispetti il collare
Drop the music felt like I was at funeral
what is the mowing?
I didn't understand the question
@@CherryFarmEurope not sure what I meant, it's been so long. it must have been something you said in the caption.
А чем замазываете спилы?
воск или фитобальзам
Обрезано значительно больше половины! Так?
so basically, cut most of it down and paint the wounds with paint
My sensei punched tree trunks.
Trees survive so much pruning at once?
If you prune them before the beginning of the vegetation they will be okey. As you can see in this video ua-cam.com/video/9xtYHD_LxHs/v-deo.html
@@CherryFarmEurope well done. I've got a coupe of plum trees that were completely knotted with branches and suckers. The tree is alive but overgrown and a lot of the branches are dry. I removed all the suckers and inner branches that I was able to reach. Now I'm wondering if it would be helpful for the tree to shorten the main leader to about half so the tree can get more energy. Don't know if that makes sense
Shorten the main leader the following year and leave the tree to regenerate.
I understand your needs, but it had a so armonical shape, why so much pruning in one season in an old established tree? Make it in 2-3 years. Open door to monilia and other fungine diseases
The wood was too high for picking, in terms of protection the wood was sprayed there will be no problems with diseases and pests.
The music would have been better if you were showing a family but it didn't help us who are trying to learn something. I would have rather heard what your goal was and how you were trying to accomplish it .
These are the first videos I made, I didn't expect that people would be so interested, in the future we will correct such things. Thank you for following the channel.
instead of such a stupid stock soundtrack, some verbal explanations will help a lot

No , this is a natural form of cherry .
Что за формировка,подвой какой?
Beautiful music but try explaining what your are doing would help in basic language so people understand tipping a leader duhhh ..
ua-cam.com/video/yYF8Ym_5jXM/v-deo.html this video is more basic pruning.
Thx sorry if I was a bit harsh I had a bad hair day.aporeciate what you ate doing
Why the sad music?

@CherryFarmSerbia I was a bit low anyway thanks for that! 😆🤣
You should end it by cutting it off at the trunk and laugh “April fools”
Commercial trimming
How to turn a beautiful tree into an ugly vase shape 😂
Man ..please kill the music. It significantly more pleasant to watch as is
very very wrong pruning
You never cut more than 30% of any cherry tree (and many other fruits) at one time. Your cuts are off as well; never flat. Don't follow this method! You will have a very weedy, unruly tree
Just cut the entire cherry from the bottom
I do that also ua-cam.com/video/R85WyBekLgU/v-deo.html
Makes me dizzy to watch!
Dont watch 🤣
very bad video. I see only that you cutting the branches but it does not give any educational value
а заче вообще было её обрезать? красивое дерево было
Это делается для того, чтобы продемонстрировать обрезку, которая улучшает качество плодов и упрощает сбор урожая. И от этой красоты только птицы выигрывают.
Hello! Thanks for the videos. They're great. Just wondering, I have a bing cherry tree that is 15 years old that needs to be pruned because it has never been pruned. I've watched the above video. What would you do with this tree? The same thing as you did in the video or would you cut it down to the way you did in the video for the 30 year old tree? Here are two pictures.
