Hi Ellen. Nice video Win.
In Ireland we have used it in winter also, but it is hard work (rough on the
hands), so limited to shoots produced in the last season. Gives less grow-back
than pruning
Hi Ellen. Nice video Win.
In Ireland we have used it in winter also, but it is hard work (rough on
the hands), so limited to shoots produced in the last season. Gives less
grow-back than pruning I believe. Probably less axillary buds left, and
maybe less young tissue to produce adventitious buds?
