Training kiwifruit: T-bar and pergola
The architecture of the kiwifruit vine and why both training systems follow from it. T-bar and pergola with their dimensions, advantages, costs and a comparison in numbers. Training from the day of planting: planting high, a first season for the root with tipping at one metre, cutting back low the following spring and taking the trunk up in the second season, leaders, winter and summer pruning, males and the support structure. Three diagrams, a table of mistakes, and the gaps that remain for Greece. A field observation from Giannitsa on planting distances.
