Heavy reduction on big cherry in ridiculous winds!

Nice work.

 

Nowhere near 40% though, surely? (which is a good thing!).

 

Was a bit brisk today. Nearly slopped my coffee in the cab at one point.

maybe it ended up about 30%ish, but i do agree (only a good thing), cherries aren't the best for being reduced..

How do you judge the % I know its means 40% of the tree must be on the ground But how do you guess it?
