Apples are sizing quickly By Bengt Schumacher APPLE UPDATE: An early spring brought apples into full bloom by May 18th. With recent moisture, and warm temperatures, apples are sizing quickly with some fruit as large as 2.5 cm in diameter. New shoot growth on apples is 15-20 cm. long and growing vigorously. Although still early to predict, the apple crop appears to be smaller than last year, due mainly to frost 1 damage to the apple buds earlier this spring. SMALL FRUIT UPDATE: The early spring has also resulted in an early strawberry harvest. Many growers are harvesting strawberries , a week earlier this year. Many Pick- Your-Own farms opened the June 14-15 weekend. The strawberry crop looks very good this year, with abundant fruit set, and'very little frost damage. Raspberries and hjghbush blueberries are past bloom now, with fruit beginning to size. Asparagus season continues, although expected to end soon.
