Hello,

Anyone willing to buy and reship to interested people?

Based on the average apple size, what sized bag would you need?  I do not think that a 3" bag will accomodate a full size, average apple, but will the poly bag stretch?

A triploid would require an even larger poly bag.

Advice?

The drawstring bag appears perfect.

Later,
Tom

So far I we have the following list for bagging apples.  Add your name if interested. I'll try to keep track of the names and see if we can put a report together. We can keep it freeform, as long as everyone keeps track of what they did when they bagged their apples. (What kind of bags, when bagged, how many, how many dropped off, how many control apples, when harvested, quality of the fruit, was any spray used before bagging. If you use colored bags, when did you take the bags off.)

Apples:

Naomi <dragon-star@cableone.net> Idaho Zone 6
Stefan Brandle <sbrandle@css.tayloru.edu> Indiana
Mark Lee <markl@nytec.com> Seattle zone 7B/8A
Nate Torgerson <nathantorgerson@yahoo.com> Minnesota Zone 4
