They supposedly let enough sunlight through where it shouldn't stunt the growth. I might do a test where I cover one tree and let the rest uncovered. The sour cherry is a prime candidate for being covered for this test.

I'm more worried about the extra weight on the limbs causing more stress and weakening them. Cherry trees already have narrow crotch angles that can split from the weight of a large crop.
