Well, the snow is finally melting away from the bases of my apple
trees enough that I can see just how terrible the mice were this
winter. Some trees are goners without a doubt, but some are 70-90%
girdled, and I am wondering if these will have what they need to pull
through and grow or should I graft them completely over?
All trees are on Dwarf Rootstock (M9, G16, B9) and are going into 4th
or 5th leaf.
Any helpful experience to be shared?
