I know bark inversion works. I’ve read about that for years. I’ve never tried it. I know pulling down branches induces fruiting sooner.
Another method that the University of MN uses on apples is to bud seedlings to older trees to get faster flowering. This is how they test lots of apples quickly vs growing them all out for years.
Its pretty cool stuff. I wonder if this guy learned it on his own or was it passed down? You would imagine Europeans at one time or another would have found some of this out, same with Chinese and Persians… etc.
This is been on the internets for a long time, but gives you an idea of how to do it… I would like to try with a seedling…if i screw up oh well.
