After the wettest and coldest Spring on record in the Pacific NW, most crops 
are a solid month behind. Late apples probably will fail altogether, unless 
we have an unexpected swing in the other direction and get an extended warm 
Fall. Nat'l Weather Service calls for standard precip. and temps this Fall, 
so I don't see that happening. 
Great year to plant little apple trees; my four additions are looking 
content. 
 
Spartan blueberries finished yesterday and Toro just getting ripe. Jersey 
slowly on the way.
