- Subject: [NAFEX] Is my Asian pear "runted out"?

Alex I have Shinko on OHxF333 and they are coming
out also the trees are 14 year old and only about 6 to 7 feet tall and produce
very poorly small fruit slow growth and with heavy pruning no bud wood for
propagation. Also a note all of our other trees are on Calleryana root
stock because 1) Calleryana is a true Asian pear no incompatibility problems
and a stronger trees that will last years beyond my death. 2) Calleryana is a tap rooted type root
stock that will put roots that will with stand drought and high winds and the
trees are easy to manage by cutting the to 3) I do not recommend Shinko on any root stock
do to the amount of manual thinning required to prevent over producing with the
result of small fruit. But on a good note Shinko top worked with other
cultivars like limbs with multiple grafts of different cultivars makes
excellent mother trees for producing scion wood the growth is very health and rapid
growth and come to bear age early. This has been my experience with Shinko Thank you Kum Specializing in Exotic Fruit and Nut trees for alternative
