Greetings Grower Faves & AgAssociate Friends... Hope All is Good with You.....
Pretty Nice Weather... Very Small Chance PreCip this WeekEnd... Tons-A-Sun... DayTime Temps Wonderful..Next week All 80*s.. Early Friday 45*F..After that All Lows 50*s & 60*s...
The Pesky Wind is supposed to start behaving on Sunday....A Holiday WeekEnd...Looking very nice.....Over-All...Reports So Far...
It's another Large Crop of Apples in Michigan. And..A few Folks have heard about the Hudson Valley and Pennsylvania Crops being Down a Bit..maybe quite-a-bit...
But...This is History Making..Again...The Fall of 2025 was our 4th Big Crop in a Row..and Now.. Some Folks reporting another Very Large Crop..some sayn 'Perfect'.
And..Lotsa Guys Thinning... Other Guys sayn Fuji are kinda skimpy.....Lotsa Lotsa Foliage now to Blow-Thru..Huuuge now compared to just 2-3 weeks ago... Several Guys moved their GWA up to 50 or 60..from 30 ga...
Thorough Coverage is always critical no matter what you're tryn to eradicate.
.As you look at Honeys..trying to decide on Thinning..always remember that you wanna be really careful NOT to OverThin..which will leave you wide-open to Bitter-Pit. You're actually further ahead to do alittle very early costly Hand-Thinning...How Much of All the Right Stuff you add into Your Tank-Mix in this Time-Frame will quite likely $ave you Huuuuge in the next 10-12 Weeks...Or..It will Co$t you a Ton for $kimpin...
Every Year there are some that do 1 or 2 quite High-Priced Pesticides and don't do any of the Super NukeRoids that are so LowCo$tCheap. They $pend Alotta Money and still get the Defects at the FreshPack Plant...The Most serious DangerZones..for FireBlight..are still ...*RagTag Bloom.. *InterPlanted Replacement Trees.. *Grafted Blocks...
Imagine 100s upon 100s of FBight Strikes showing-up..right where we now see 100s & 100s of RagTag Bloom Flowers. We always Stay Waaaay-Out-Ahead of the Bacterial Inoculum... the Super-Systemic-Strategy... We are TankMixing *K-Phite7LP.. *F-II-SW.. *Kudos.. *OxiDate 5.0.. *SAver.. *CS2005....And we always add into the same Tank any-All our Fave NukeRoids..Redox Nutrition.. CapToZeb for Scab... Thinners..VitaZyme[or BioShot] We just never forget to use our Indicate5!..Parka is goin in the Tank now... In these Tanks we do not need the InSpray 90... Parka has several attributes...Replacing the 90-10NIS is just a minor one... Parka has Proven Itself to stop or seriously diminish Russet.. Flecking.. StemEnd Cracking.. SunBurn.. SunScald.. Many of the Younger Low TRV Blocks are getting 3-4 Pint-Acre in 40-50 GWA...WellWorthIt Cheap.....Memorial Day Weekend hours...
We'll be closing early tomorrow..
