Observation on P.2 and finalized 2025 list
Been a busy day. Watered the herd and plants. Re-arranged the green house and culled some dead plants. Mixed up a half load of soil. Finished of all grafts into soil now. Inspected the plants in feed bag root wraps. Though 4 of 6 took on grafts; they were very goopy and lost a lot of soil as well. To me it seems to be begging for root rot. So those 6 too were placed in pots. I was also curious about my fast take scions. Most of them were on P.2. Some were G.214. just one on straight M111. None on interstems. Either M111/P.2 or M111/G.214. The girls got excited because 4 grafts were putting out bright flower buds. Have not had the heart to tell them I will pinch them off eventually. After I get good pictures of the flower to go in each variety's info file. Few of these old apples have many pictures available. Lastly I put the cull on my first 2025 scions list. It is still large. But a sizable cut was made to order some other year. The focus is finishing up my Georgia Origin apple
