As a result of study, fruit weight was determined as the highest in V training system and summer pruning with 121.70 g and as the lowest value in Y training system and control with 64.40 g. Fruit width was the highest in V training system and summer pruning with 5.73 cm and the lowest value was V training system and 3.80 cm in control.
