Bitter pit is caused by a lack of calcium. Pruning the new growth tips in the summer is supposed to push the calcium to the fruit since new growth needs calcium also.Or you can use a calcium foliar spray.

@jsgraham1592 anytime from leaf fall to bud burst. I should plant them as soon as the leaves are fallen.

"Bitter pit" is due to calcium deficiency in the apples themselves possibly as a result of high potassium levels

Have you tried grafting this variety on different rootstocks? I'm wondering what effect this may have on the bitter pit. Since bitter pit is thought to be a nutritional deficiency and trees can only take in what the rootstock provides them, different rootstocks may be more or less compatible with this variety. Any thoughts on this?

M26 should be OK. Will look againat storage. We had been going to post a vid about last wonters fruit in store but left it too long. Cool well ventilated dark and mouse proof about covers it. And only try to store quality fruit.

Dear Stephen, I have a couple of young apple trees with their leaves on - recently grafted. Could you tell me when the best time to plant them is?

Stephen, do you think it would be ok to espalier this variety on an m26 root stock? Also, any chance you would do a video on storage of apples (temp, and other conditions, how to store (container, stacking/organization) etc.? Thank you. Vincent.
