ISHS Acta Horticulturae 80: Symposium on Growth Regulators in Fruit Production

THE GROWTH AND BEARING OF APPLE TREES AS AFFECTED BY SADH AND CCC APPLIED FOR SEVERAL YEARS

Author:   Z. Soczek
Abstract:
Long-term annual applications of growth retardants on young apple trees do not provide a means of permanent control of growth. Increase of crop yield is usually limited to the first years and is associated with decreased fruit size.

In older orchards Alar can be used late in the season to improve fruit colour and prolong harvesting period, without seriously affecting fruit size.
