What really worked for me was to top-work N Spy onto 8 Year old Bud 9 or M9

Mystery apple? Grown in northern Virginia, courtesy Keith Yoder,
Virginia Tech. Just harvested. Likely an antique variety from the
area. Note the short stem and rather pronounced lenticel spotting.

P.S. He knows what
I have Hedge posts (osage orange) that have been in the ground since the50's
and not rotten yet, They grow on the farm and are ffree for cutting, Downside
is they grow crooked but will make trellis posts that last as long as you will.

? What level of arsenic found in
soil is safe? Does it mater if the arsenic is organic or nonorganic? Does
arsenic and lead,or DDT persist in soil or does it break down. How do I know if
this ground is safe to grow anything? Lee Elliott, Apple Hill of Scott County,

Thanks but I need something for nursery trees and bearing trees, deer have
chewed off the fruit buds on lower limbs, few apples on lower limbs, all in the
tops, have had some luck with one strand of barbwire, about 3 feet high, with
aluminun foil crinkeld over the wire evey 30 feet, baited with
contaminate the
embryo. With hundreds of seed to excise and poor eyesight this is a most
daunting task. I have googled this but nothing comes up, any ideas? Lee
