The letter from Kevin Versnyder does not appear in my inbox, but in your
included reference it makes me ask this question:
Does someone have information that Geneva 202 influences fruit size, or
produces bud-union failures?

Keven, I meant to address my last email to you. I have silt loam, holds a
little more water a little longer than sandy loam, but the one 118 I have
here on our property is doing very well. What is your opinion on the sandy
loam angle, faster drainage?

On elevation - I was talking to a big name guy in apple research when I
attended the hort show and Honeycrisp Experience in Washington recently. I
asked him about our elevation here in Montana (3500') and the effect

The U.S. apple industry would benefit greatly if we could recapture
what is now a predominately imported juice market (why not: "made in

Steve,
The question is deceptive. What I suggest is that as long as you are
exposed to an apple that is mediocre you will ask your question. I am sorry
that you have been exposed to apples without quality. In today's market
most $.99 apples are of lower grade and reflect so with taste.
I bet less than 15% of households have heard of Honeycrisp. When I go to
the store, I make it a point to ask customers in the produce section about
Honeycrisp. Most have never heard of it. If those who have, about 50% say
it is a very good apple or it is their favorite apple. One man told me that

I've got Honeycrisp on M26 at 5X15 Steve. The 5 looks pretty good but the 15
probably could had been 13. Your welcome to come down to have a look sometime.

We have about 700 Honeycrisp/G16 rootstock and 1300 Honeycrisp/B9.
Breakage at the union has not been a problem with either. However, some
trees on G16 succumbed to latent virus because the scion wood was not
virus-free and G16 is very susceptible to this virus. If the Honeycrisp

We have Brookfield Gala and Honeycrisp on G16. Great looking trees but
they need a support system. Both varieties are brittle at the graft
