I have three cherry trees, and I’m a long way SOUTH of Door County. My cherries are not doing all that well either, and this should’ve been the first year they produced decently. I have fruit on, but a lot of it is drying up. Lord knows we’ve had plenty of rain, but the ‘drying up’ comes from it not being pollinated completely.
Not to be crass, but the tree knows when to ‘abort’ the fruit because it’ll never ripen properly.
I manage a Garden Center and have customers in all the time that have poor pollination on fruit trees. So what do I do? I sell them yet another fruit tree to boost pollination.
One can never bee too rich, too thin, or have too many pollinators in the garden. :)
Don’t bees do the pollination?
