I had nanking cherries and got about a handful of "cherries" off of 6 bushes
a year for 5-6 years.  They were incredibly inconsistent fruiters for me,
though I can't blame disease or other problems for their shy bearing.   I
did do a fall oil spray and a early spring bordeaux spray, as I was mainly
just emptying the sprayer out at that point.  I do recall reading the
fuzziness of nanking cherry leaves is supposed to discourage some disease
problem or something, and my own experience (without disease on them) seems
to bear it out

I eventually removed all of them in favor of more traditional cherries
(Northstar)and other fruiting trees.

Sorry I can't be of more help
