Harold,
You will find information on the web regarding trunk scoring that may interest you. I studied it while at Michigan State and have tried it on varieties at our place. Timing of application to the tree, however, is critical to the success of the outcome. Good Luck, Brian Hortonville Farms Sheridan, IN ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Harold Schooley Sent: Tuesday, March 10, 2009 3:32 PM To: Apple-crop Subject: Apple-Crop: Early bearing Would someone care to divulge a recipe for getting slow-to-bear varieties into production sooner. I have Northern Spy in mind using Ethrel or NAA or combinations. Apogee perhaps. Other techniques? Harold Schooley Schooley Orchards Limited Simcoe, Ontario Canada
