In my case, I feel that proper usage of these chemicals will have a
negligible effect on the environment. Automobiles, planes, power
plants, etc. far out shadow anything I do in my backyard. If you have
never tasted a quality apple from the tree, you probably don't know
what you are missing.

If you are implying that unless sprays are used it is not possible to
harvest quality apples then you are wrong.

Our apples were superb this year and not one drop of spray was used and we
harvested from 4 apple trees. Our other apple trees are still too small to
be producing yet.



Can you define quality?
We used to have another poster who liked to define words.
Can you define symplastless?
Red Delicious can be clean, shinny, and red,
but is the last apple I would buy or grow.
And this adds to the dialog, how? Nothing was said about Red Delicious
apples.
You don't mention which
varieties you are growing.

You also don't mention where you live. This can make a difference.
Speaks volumes to you powers of observation, Doo. Fran has been posting
here for years and anyone with a pulse knows she is from Australia.
This discussion started with Heirloom
Apples, most of which need spraying to keep them clean.
Brilliant, spray pollution on your apples to keep them clean. And you
know it's true because you can trust Mon$anto to protect your health and
the environment. Right, Doo?
