Pruning apricot, again


apricot


This young tree is loaded with a lot of fruit this year, I removed a basket already in April to lighten its load, turned the fruits into Japanese style Ume (salted plum). 

split apricots

During the last 2 weeks of wet cold weather, the fruits drank too much water, swell up fast and split. So I have to painfully remove yet another basket of good size fruits, wish the sun comes soon to ripen them up.
