Waiting for bloom.. Root stock in for candycots.

Dormant season activities like – the removal of mummy nuts that remain on the tree after the last harvest – is very important. Otherwise, those mummy nuts are a loud and open invitation for nut feeding insets that just hang around the trees and damage next crop.

Dormant trees, without leaves, allow for better coverage of any necessary sprays. Spraying during the dormant season means you are less likely to harm beneficial insects.
