What varieties would you recommend for an organic orchard?
One major issue I can see that would apply to a commerical organic orchard that would not apply to a commerical Non- organic orchard would be:
Thinning, organic orchards do not have the luxury of the use of chemical thinners as far as I know. Which apples require less thinning (and are resistant to scab and/or FB?)
Thank you
