What Bomand writes will certainly work, and many people do exactly as Bomand has written. Of course the best situation would be to retain all the fruits that Brian's tree produces, but at the same time have his tree produce larger sized fruits. Thus the best of both worlds. This is done all the time in commercial groves. 1st spray the tree with low biuret urea 1.5 months prior to the expected bloom date. This spray greatly helps in the bloom and also the retention of fruit. Then after the tree blooms and sets the fruit, spray the tree again with low biuret urea. This 2nd spray increases fruit size. It does this by extending the cell division stage of fruit development, increasing fruit size. To achieve the best results both solutions should be between 5.5 and 6.5 pH. Both low biuret urea sprays are made up by dissolving 100 grams of urea per gallon. Therefore, if Brian would spray the tree with the 2 sprays the tree will retain most all of the fruit and at the same time give Brian his wish of larger fruit..
