Abstract
THE spray-thinning of fruit trees is a difficult technique to master. Moreover, local climatic conditions increase the difficulties involved, for our warm winters tend to lead to delayed foliation which in turn means that fruit tree blossoms open over a long period and that individual trees of the same variety blossom at slightly different times.
