Hello Apple Croppers-
This winter was a tough one for growers in New England, New York
and the Mid Atlantic (New Jersey).
I am wondering what the apple crop potential is in your states,
provinces, countries this season?
How was your bloom? Good pollination? Winter injury to trees.
I know growers in Virginia had winter injury to apple tree
trunks. Massachusetts and Vermont light on bloom? How did Western
New York fair?
How did my friends in Quebec make out?
Look foreword to your responses.
Best
Win

petal fall in mid Iowa, prolonged bloom on many varieties. We are still
feeling the effects of 2 seasons ago when frost eliminated all blooms,
then last season over cropping of honeycrisp and gold delicious. (
severe, multiple thinnings did not work well enough).
Winter injury? I don't know, more likely heat and dry last Fall.
