Great inputs. Thank you. I am into developing a plot in Bajaura, Kullu valley, Himachal Pradesh province of India. The economics of rootstock apple gardening appears to game changer.

Thanks Mr. Robinson for your all video presentations. Very detailed information, canopy shape, pruning strategy. Thanks to you, Mr. Parker and Mr. Jon, I started my first high density apple orchard consisting of: Crimson Crisp, Opal, Modi, Kanzi, Pink Lady. I have around 300 apple trees. Wish you all the best, Cris from Romania!

Great speaker.

Wise words. Planting density decisions will constantly evolve, with many factors influencing a grower's inputs to the equation. In my case (cider apple growing), one such limiting factor was the availability of available machinery to harvest very narrow row widths. One also had to consider the fact that the end product had a maximum value, limited by contract terms. All these variables dictated the pruning method and expenditure per acre as the orchard matured. The overriding security of a minimum contract price, a long contract (20-30 years) and the fact that all fruit from a named orchard had to be purchased by the cider maker for, what was effectively a generation, influenced many such decisions.

I am very glad to see your video it is very inspiring sir

Very informative video. I want to do my phd in hdp apple, can anyone suggest me the best place, professor and university for that?

What is the difference between branch and scaffold branch ?

Can we apply this method in apple tree grafted in seedling rootstock

Why you didn't cut on top in dormency..i mean head back on top of the central leader or top of the branch?

This would have been a much more helpful video if it had included some field demonstration footage.

90/tree in Canada

im at 6ft wide and 18in apart

Where are you finding trees for 5-8$ ?? I am seeing 25-35$!!!!

So , let's grow the tree tall ( spindle) quickly, and with tying down the side branches they will get fruit buds and spurs...😅😊.and then $fruit

There is only 2min. left in the vidèo. Are we ever going to get tothe treè behind the white board? Nope,the end
