Are there apple trees that only bear fruit every other year?
by

1 Answer

Answer :

If you had a frost when the buds were opened, then no fruit this year.  We only have a few apples this year..........we have 100 fruit trees and 50% are apple...........Last year we had many apples that we filled our root cellar...and some to the neighbors & food bank........we will be lucky if we get a dozen apples this year.  All fruit trees need to be sprayed fall and again in spring with dormant oil.  That smothers the bugs.  We spray up to the bud stage.......after the bud opens we only spray the trunks.  We need bees for polunation.  We plant flowers for the bees & butterflies.  Ph should be tested...........should be 5.0-6.5............we do lime every spring and composted horse or cow manure.  Our ground was formed from a vocanic eruption many years ago and we I had the ground tested they said that we needed lime...........we can't do enough lime.............but you can buy a tester reasonable.....after the season they are usually on sale.  Happy Summer.

A retired zookeeper owned a huge house with a very large and beautifully landscaped yard. The neighbors of the man drove past his home daily, and admired his arrangement of all the large trees and numerous healthy bushes which adorned the front yard. One day, a neighbor drove by the former zookeeper's house, and was astonished to see a living, fully-grown ostrich standing in the yard. A week later, neighbors reported seeing a live, fully-grown bear standing near the ostrich. As the next few weeks passed, the neighbors saw a tiger, a lion, a hippopotamus, and finally an elephant appear in the yard of the retired zookeeper --- all fully- grown and alive, but without any cages or bars to protect the neighborhood from them. Amazingly, not one person who lived in that area ever expressed any fe
