How do I prune tip bearing apples?
Q
Comments (4)
I don't remember the specific rootstock and Grandpas shuts down their internet catalog in the off season to refresh my memory. I want to say m111. Possibly b118. I'm as sure as I can be that it's one of those two and not a G. So far it hasn't tried to have a spur but it has only had 2 bearing years to show me. It has only been the tips that produced flowers both years. My niece's on semi-dwarf in my yard has put out things that look like spurs but hasn't had a flower to confirm. That would be an interesting twist if my niece's grows more like Newtown and the one I bought as Newtown doesn't. The reason I'm not sure about my niece's is the flavor from her yard was extremely tart and the Newtowns in my yard weren't. I'm hopeful I can do a side by side from the same yard next year. So if I prune the Grandpa's tree like I was trying to encourage spurs next year that should cover it for however it's going to bear? And my idea of pruning back the whips as I pick the fruit this year might be a good start at that (it'd be late but I think too late to get any growth from pruning). Lodi was easy to figure out with the fruit being off the tree in July. I just tipped everything after fruiting and it had plenty of time to set up flowers for next year. I've got it bearing away from the tips. At least I did before fireblight took out a bunch of spurs this year.

Hi Pooh, Gee, I can't believe that I missed this thread. Thank you Minnie for letting us know about Pooh. I saw your post about your illness Pooh and I only had pneumonia once and that is when I was carrying my son. It was just awful and I never ever want that again. Every 5 years I go get a pneumonia shot now. As a matter a fact I got one about 3 weeks ago along with the flu shot. I also got the shingles shot and I got a small reaction from it but, my husband didn't, still worth getting those shots than getting the flu, pneumonia and the shingles. Glad to hear that you are on the road to recovery and please stay that way. Prayers are being sent your way. Take care now. Joyce

Thanks everybody !! We didn't do much this year. Went to dinner at Provino's over in Chattanooga. Thought about going to see a movie but there was really nothing we wanted to see and definitely nothing we wanted to stay our late for. So we just went, ate, and came home. Gonna watch TV and play on the computer for the rest of the evening. Pooh Bear

I have been doing really good lately. I'm starting to retain a little fluid but for the
most part I have been stable. The fluid gain is going very slowly.
I have been able to walk around quite a bit (for me) and I'm not confined to
my power chair like before. I've been going to church; I missed doing that.
I can go for short periods without my oxygen tube. I shouldn't but I can.
It becomes a necessity when I'm out and about and the tank goes empty.
I take extra tanks with me but when I don't have my oxygen I tire out more quickly.
Hospice got a carrier for our vehicle that Cindy can load my chair by herself.
Now when I get to the point again that I can no longer help it will be easier on Cindy.
So for now I feel great. Hope it continues for a long time.
Thanks for all the prayers and good thoughts. It's helping.
