Re: [MBZ] OT: Peach crop wiped out I NE States

You can loose a peach crop several ways. If it gets too cold too early, you kill the buds. If it gets too cold at the coldest part of winter, it will kill the buds. If it starts to get warmer, then turns very cold, it can kill the buds. And, if the buts are breaking or if the tree is in

We had a VERY late freeze in the DC area (April 18, IIRC) and I was worried that my winesap apple tree would get wiped out. Fortunately, the tree knew enough to bloom AFTER the freeze, at which time the tent caterpillars made their nests in short order. BTW, my garden hose experiment was a YOOGE
