okay gang my son thinks the coast guard is cool so we need to radically reorganize society in the next 16 years so he can join the coast guard and just do dramatic rescues of fishermen in distress and not be an ocean cop or ocean soldier
Big cuts to open the center and no more than 1/3 of the tree
If it’s as tall as you want then heading cuts on new growth in the summer to force spurs
Our limited home growing space is not the place for someone else’s poorly managed experimental tree breading program
Grow good fruit you and your community will actually eat
-a home scale orchard is not an appropriate place for a seedling apple or anything else, let the professional breeders do that, don’t let someone talk you into it
-similarly , never plant an unknown variety tree, if the tree isn’t labeled with variety don’t take it even for free
I should also mention:
- it is technically illegal to grow fruit trees in the hell strip, do so at your own risk , I do but I have tidy trees trees in nowhere east Portland
-medlars are NOT worth planting , if you want one I can get plenty
…
Neither me nor my fruit horticulture friends nor the professional orchards , OSU, nor HOEC recommend against winter pruning for plums , either euro or Asian
They are the only group that does , it’s common in England where they say not to bc of canker , maybe they’re watching British gardening show
There is a popular local fruit tree group that says not to but they are wrong
Idk where they learned what they tell people but we don’t have bacterial canker that bad so we are fine to
We do have other problems like peach leaf curl but that’s different
Yes you can do structural pruning right now but not much longer from now
Some of mine are already leafing out depending on what root stock they’re on

The supplements and “functional foods” don’t have enough of it anyway , just hype and money

Everyone is on and on about inulin , named after inula which is elecampane
Industrial sources come mostly from agave or chicory , sometimes artichoke, but I figured I’d go straight to the … root of the matter
No
It’s bitter and rosemary eugenol like aromatic
