Apple Tree Question
First post to the group, so I apologise if this has been spoken about
before. I have in my garden an apple tree that measures about 12 foot tall. It has green apples (not sure of variety). This year, as last, it is teeming with fruit, so much so that the branches are buckling with the sheer weight. OK, I understand that growers train their trees along supports. What can I do, other than remove some of the apples, to help alleviate the weight on the branches. I'm currently propping up the lower branches with pieces of scaffold board, which looks unsightly. Any tips are welcomed. Graeme |
