Hello!
Thank you all for your input!
I did not explain why I was looking at drop and fruit size: it was an
experiment on the use of ReTain.
In the end I’m not sure I can pinpoint the reason this increased fruit size on

Hello, I’m analyzing some data and I have seemingly contradictory results. I’m
hoping someone can comment and make sense of this:
For a number of randomly selected trees, fruit drop was recorded starting late
