That's good to know. I'll taste test a few tomorrow and see if they made 
progress.
Unfortunately, time has run out for my apples. Friday night, the 
forecast is for 20 degrees. My yard may stay in the upper 20s, due to 
being next to a lake, but Saturday night the forecast is 15 degrees F. 
Unless the forecast changes drastically, I'll have to get the last of 
the fruit off the trees Saturday afternoon.
