I would like to hear more about Apogee-induced cracking of Empire.
Does anyone know the particular set of circumstances that result
in cracking?
I have safely used one or two applications at 4 ounces per 100
gallons on
Empire a couple of years, but, having heard of possible cracking,
I have not
used the 3rd or 4th sprays that would be needed for good
vegetative control of
my trees on MM106.

Just for interest, it seems this mystery disease is solved, but
we had some
Empire apples treated with Agogee last year that looked very
similar. Learn
from our mistakes!
