IT IS A CANE-PRUNED SYSTEM WITH SPURS. THEREFORE IS CALLED MIXED PRUNING, THE COMBINATION OF SPURS (2 BUDS) AND CANES (8 -10 BUDS).

THE CANE BUDS GROW INTO SHOOTS THAT WILL PRODUCE THE YIELD IN THE FOLLOWING SEASON. THE SPUR BUDS PRODUCE SHOOTS THAT CAN BE USED AS CANES THE FOLLOWING YEAR.

THESE CANES ARE BENDED OVER THE WIRE, IF WE TALK ABOUT CURVED GUYOT.

THE ARCHED CANES WILL INCREASE AVAILABLE CANE SURFUCE, THUS CREATING A HIGHER BUD/METRE RADIO BETWEEN PLANTS.
