[IBC] More on Leaf cutting
Another reason (or two) to snip leaves, especially on vigorous
growers that are still in training: 1. to get a midsummer look at the developing branch structure. You can then snip away that (those) branch(es) developing exactly where you do NOT want a branch to develop and leave only a tiny, easily healed, scar. 2. to make it easier to wire -- or re-wire, or UN-wire, or all of those choices. Neither of these, probably, is sufficient reason alone to de-leaf a tree, but are ancilliary reasons.
