George-What can you tell us about apple size and drop time of that Siberian crab? Can you put drop time as following or right before some other common apple for us in a different climate?

I see lots of different things called Siberian crab.

These are small apples, I just have them around the orchards for pollinating mostly. Turkeys eat them and I'm sure deer do, but that's not why I planted them.

Wow!! Looks great & nice photo's...:) I really like your water catchment. How did you plum the irrigation line - Are you using a drip line. I have a similar tank and was thinking of pumping water from a pond with a gas powered pump to fill the tank and then letting gravity feed an irrigation system - but I much prefer your system, nice job!...;)

Thanks, right now I will just be running hoses. I will do drip lines but it needs to have good filtration or it will clog the emitters. Some day as money permits.

Great photos Maya,

Some of the wild crabs I see near my work popped yesterday. Headed to my camp tomorrow to check things out.

Ya, that was it here too NH. Most everything seem to have popped yesterday.

They were calling for 1-2" here, we got a 1/2". That was more than enough. I'm real glad the wind wasn't bad.
