Will these advances make our pruning lives easier?
"A new PGR (plant growth regulator), prohexadione-Ca was
applied to vigorous apple trees at various rates and timings
over a five year period. This PGR was very effective for
reducing shoot growth in apple trees when applied as a
single spray near petal fall or in multiple low-dose sprays
during the early part of the growing season. Application of
prohexadione-Ca produced no adverse effects on cropping or
fruit quality." Approved Date: 1999-11-30, TEKTRAN United

Still would like to hear from our NAFEX experts.
