is it ok to cut back cherry tree after flowering

Exclamation Edited by moderator to add descriptive title.
Original title too generic....... (irishtrees)
see rule 11

yes it is ok to prune the cherry any time from end of flowering until end of Summer. Never take away heavy shoots. trim back light shoots not more than half inch in diameter.
