My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

caring for apple tree grafts

12 years ago

I am the care taker of an historic grove of apple trees in Midway Utah. The elevation is 5500. The newly grafted trees are about 3 yrs old now. I am going to start trimming the suckers at the base of each tree. Should I start to trim the branches now?
