Another option would be to plant them this weekend, they would do good in the ground as well

The wand on most tank sprayers should reach 25-30 feet pretty easy. That's what I do with my 25 gallon tank sprayer mounted on back of UTV

Are those fruit trees you have caged in the plot? Is it safe to spray Cleth by apple trees?

I like using turkey loads on them when they are way up high

I am always looking for them, they really go after the oaks that I have released from the aspens for some reason.

Porcupines love my oak trees, and can cause a lot of damage to them. I look for them in the winter when there easy to see in the trees and take them with a shotgun. Anyone have a better way of thinning there numbers?

Yes, I have a bunch seedling apple trees starting to bear fruit and just wanted to check options instead of just grafting over to other apple varieties.

Anyone have any luck grafting other fruits to apple trees? I think I heard it can work with pears, how about plums?

I have gotten the best growth from trees I have pruned aggressively at a young age. Red lines are removing whole branch and yellow lines are heading cuts about half the branch. Cut the top of central leader as well, which may put up 2 to 3 more and prune back to 1 in mid summer. IMHO

Did you end up liking them? They are becoming one of my favorite tasting apples and the tree is clean and thriving in northern WI.

I planted this strip by discing clover. I did not nuke it. It was a blend from deercreek seed, think it was Buck and Birds. I don't believe they have the same mix anymore but similar options.

Anyone find it better to leave damaged apples that are being eaten by yellow jackets on the tree or remove them? Asking for a home tree that is easy to get at. I was thinking if I keep them on the tree they would be less likely to ruin others. But maybe I'm just letting the tree pump energy...

Thank you. The weeds are manly ferns and some thistles. Not much grass, it was diced well last year and had good clover growth

Hello TnM guys. I want to broadcast winter rye seed into a standing winter rye and clover plot, then brush hog the standing rye and clover. My hope was to do this without terminating the clover and weeds (near apple trees). Has anyone had good luck without spraying it or would I just be...

Do you use a hand pump chemical sprayer for this?

Thank you, I was just worried because the label says must be applied before bud swell. I have to put off the spraying more now because the night temps are going below freezing again...

I am in zone 3/4 in northern WI and the snow melt has finally let me get out to spray my 65 apple trees. The majority are dormant, a few have slight color at the tips of the buds with no leaf protrusion. Is it too late to use a mineral oil based dormant oil? Should I use an all season Neem oil...
