[QUOTE="Allen, post: 30413, member: 389"] If the tree gets to be old enough and you still aren't seeing much fruit, try wounding it in the late fall by trimming the heck out of it. This seems to work on pear and apple trees. In particular, the pear tree I have now (well, one of a few) was known to kind of having stopped producing fruit a few years before I bought the place. I put the harm to it and the past couple years it has produced a few hundred pounds of pears each year. On a side note, anyone else lose some trees to the cold snap late this spring? Stupidly enough, I think my peach trees are dead as are two older green ash trees. The damage to the ash is what really surprises me, they lost all their leaves on roughly the bottom 20-25 ft of the tree, on one that's the whole tree, on the other it only left the leaves intact on the upper 5 ft. Hoping some of the secondary buds kick off here soon but am not sure it's going to happen this time around. [/QUOTE]
