Does anyone have personal experience with the B118 apple?
Years back, a lady named Lois posted on here with her experience. Seems like it was a very dark red apple of about 2 inch size. my memory......
Is it decent for apple sauce or fresh eating?
Here's that thread: http://habitat-talk.com/index.php?threads/b118-has-fruited-results-reported.4161/I remember that post Art, i'll look to see if I can find it.
The tree limbs would touch or over-lap slightly at 16 ft spacing. There would be no room at all if you planted with a down the row and between the row grid of 16x16. Those limbs that do touch down each row I trim back slightly, as well as between the rows to allow for my side by side (UTV) room to maneuver when spraying.Are most of the row distances recommended based on getting spray equipment in between them? If it wasn't for that would 16 be preferred to get more per acre?
Blue Hill Wildlife Nursery has Liberty and Enterprise on B118 still in stock.
I see Cummins has 2 Enterprise left on B118 and 11 Liberty on P.18

Thats how I would describe my soil. Your feedback scares me. My b118 trees get allot of wind on my ridge top home orchard. My third and 4th leaf trees are growing great. But no better than m111 trees. Honestly cant tell a lick of difference. But I am still early in the game. Sure hope b118 roots hold. I take a pick axe to the ground around my trees and bust up the soil to help their roots spread better. Heavy clay sure makes it tough for roots to penetrateWhat’s everyone seeing on older B188 trees in clay loan (not wet, but more ridgetop with clay under the topsoil)? I’ve ready then could be poorly rooted and lean? I have a lot of B118s planted the last few years. Some of the older trees (10 yrs old) are starting to lean.
