The crop can be regulated to suit the capacity ofeach vine, as indicated by its vigor. If not vigorous the crop should be reduced bythe entire removal of some of the laterals. It is advisable to cut out some of the smaller clusters and let only the best onesremain this season, thus strengthening the vine and preventing injury by overbearing,which will insure a good crop the uext year.
