Hugh,  I don't know where you are located  but I would think Bud 118 is WAY too vigorous for that spacing, even with honeycrisp. Why not a much weaker rootstock and plant  (3) x12?   Evan Milburn     www.milburnorchards.com

Next spring, I'm thinking of planting Honeycrisp on Bud 118 with a 4x12 spacing. Anyone with any ideas or critical remarks on this would be appreciated. ___ apple-crop mailing list apple-crop@virtualorchard.net
