Abstract

Abstract Thinning spray combinations of naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), (2-chloroethyl) phosphonic acid (ethephon), and 1-naphthyl N -methyl carbamate (carbaryl) were applied to ‘Delicious’ apples ( Malm domestica Borkh). In 1975, 280 dekaliters per hectare (DPH) showed large variation over 3 locations. In 1976 applications based on “tree row volume” (TRV) showed uniform thinning across the same (1975) locations.
