Time Now To Prune Apples For A Better Crop
Extension Horticulturist Ray Rothenberger notes older apple trees may regain fruiting with proper pruning. Prune in late winter before growth, remove narrow angle branches, keep 3-5 scaffold branches, spread severe pruning over years if needed, and thin to improve light. Protect large cuts and follow with a regular spray program to reclaim production.
