Question

I got lil peaches! First time peach tree owner. It's 2 ft tall, in a whiskey barrel. It's got 18 peaches, which seems like unreasonable expectations. Should I thin them, or go for it?

Answer 1

I had a peach tree and if I didn't thin as many as I could, I'd be bombed with thousands of small peaches all at once, A huge mess, and lots of pie and jam. It's still very small but I suggest thinning you may get bigger peaches .

Answer 2

I was going to say not to thin them, rather you should ' cling' to them. But, after thinking about how bad my jokes are ... I'll be quiet?

Answer 3

My young peach tree I removed all but two peaches so it would grow more this year. I suggest doing the same. I picked the first one today.

Answer 4

don't thin out; the tree will take care of it, if necessary. pruning after harvest

Answer 5

I got cherry blossoms. First time on Prunus serotina

Answer 6

congratulations. you will have to show us your first bite

Answer 7

Go for it. You might have to stake the tree later to give it extra support. Good luck with your first harvest.
