Vincent:
As I understand your most recent explanation, both the untreated and
the ReTain-treated trees
produced greater fruit size at harvest if they were borne on trees most
heavily-set at start of
experiment. And that the ReTain treated trees showed a greater size/initial
number of f
Hello!
Thank you all for your input!
I did not explain why I was looking at drop and fruit size: it was an
experiment on the use of ReTain.
In the end I’m not sure I can pinpoint the reason this increased fruit size on
trees with more apples (notwithstanding ReTain), but your input underlined
Hello Vincent,
I usually am not an active participant in post but I thought that I
might weigh in on your comment since I have been doing preharvest drop
research for a number of years. Jim Krupa our technical assistant has
been involved and he expressed an interest in doing an experiment
