[Apple-Crop] Root dips

[Bob Barthel]

Hi
In 1995 I dipped apple trees in a product for crown gall. The trees came from the nursery with galls on some trees. The worst trees were not planted. I did treat the remainder. That block is still in the ground. I did leave a check but have not noticed a difference. Those trees will removed in a couple of years. I’ll have better data then.
