Is "Crista" a determinate dwarf?
Yes, it is a determinate. I didn't order any but I may next year because there are more than a couple of varieties that I would be happy to see less growth from; but I don't know if it would affect the amount of fruit set or size of the fruit.

I like what you did with the rubber band grafting. Keep us unformed as to how well it ends up working out in the long run. That might be fun to try.
