Low-Temperature Injury to Apples in the Champlain Valley, 1980-81

Author

Abstract
Some five-to-seven-year-old Mclntosh trees on various
rootstocks were severely injured (loss of leaders or scaffold
limbs) or killed during the winter of 1980-81. This injury
appeared to be related to the December 1980 cold period
and was more extensive because of the very cold period in
early January. Some of these trees had grown too late into
the fall and had not hardened sufficiently to withstand the
abrupt temperature drop in December.
