If you put the netting right on the cherry trees, it pulls the branches down so they don't grow up. This really helps keep the trees shorter and rounder. It only takes a few weeks to freeze the branchs in the down position. The only problem we have had with this is crows will land on the top and pick cherries through the net, but they cannot reach very far down (but they have broken some branches).
