What's going on with this Enterprise apple.
Grafted to a Antonovka seedling last spring it grew very well last year. Started off good this year and then a month or so ago this started to happen. The new growth on all the branches look like this. No chance that it's herbicidal overspray. It was fertilized and limed this spring. Trees growing near it are fine. Just another unexplained mystery in the life of an apple grower. :(
The :mad: bear visited my wild plums last night. The damage could have been worse.
Just two limbs broken. He did leave a lot of plums for me to snack on.........if he doesn't come back tonite :eek:.
A Tolman Sweet on Antonovka rootstock that has been ravaged by bear several times over the past years is bearing a few apples this year.
A Golden Delicious that I planted probably in the late 80's has a good crop on this year. A great tasting apple fresh off the tree.
Finally this is a Maine bred apple a Newt Grindle growing on B118 rootstock that I grafted in 2013 and planted in the spring of 2014. It had one apple on this spring and I know your not suppose to but I left it grow and it didn't seem to hurt the trees growth any.
