Thanks for that! I will try that with some of the smaller growing ones. The key thing will be the disease issue. However the micros on the porch this past summer did really well in that department all summer but eventually failed going into fall.
The "determinates" seemed almost indeterminate. They'd put on a load of cherries and the plants would lean over with the weight, allowing a new sturdy sprout to arise from near the base of the plant. When the cherries were picked I'd cut off those old branches and eventually the new sprout would grow into a new plant that would set its own fruit.
