i want to know if i should let my pickering and nam doc mai #4 hold fruit this year. with the temps being higher than normal for my area i am tempted to keep a fruit or two on each, but don't want to stunt the growth for next year. thoughts?
One or two fruit should be OK with the plant sizes you listed. I had full size fruit on NDM and Pickering after two years in the ground. How long have the trees been planted?
Pickering, you could. The NDM, I wouldn't. I would pull up some of the grass around the trunk of the NDM. You should have a clean ring out at least three feet from the trunk.
