Mike Basedow, Tree Fruit Specialist

Hudson Valley Gala producers are approaching a decision on ReTain application dates for 2022, and Champlain Valley growers won't be far behind. We've experienced a hot, dry summer to date in the Hudson Valley but it appears that at our predicted temperatures for August will moderate. The Champlain Valley has similarly been fairly hot and dry throughout the summer, similarly with a more moderate August in the forecast.
