Great question! Yes and No. Summer stone fruits need a different style of pruning since they fruit on younger wood and don’t form fruiting spurs like pears and apples. Summer is a great time for pruning stone fruits since their vigor response is not triggered so hard by pruning at this time of year (which means they are less likely to “sucker” so heavily after pruning). The best answer to your question is too complicated to answer in a comment, but thanks for the great idea for another video!! Thanks for watchin!
Great video, Tobey, with some well-timed reminders!
Love this video. The specific naming of principles is helpful, as is your pacing and careful diction.

Smart!
Do these tips also apply to summer trimming of stonefruit trees?
