This has been a tough spring to figure out what to do next. You can see by the title of this article there are a number of issues to deal with for the next few days.
My trees have virtually stood still for the past five days. I had first bloom on apple at Rutgers Snyder Farm on April 11. It's been a long draw out bloom and of most concern is that every tree I have still has open bloom and some pink clusters, mostly on one year wood, but they are there none the less.
