Picking Apples, Peaches and Pears
HINTS TO THE GROWER
by an Expert

Just when to pick apples. pears and
peaches for market is an essential
question upon the solution of which
depends the matter of prices.
The ideal time for picking apples is
a matter which must be settled to a
very large degree by the individual.
He must solve ii according to his own
locality. We often say that we pick
red apples when they have the color
and pick yellow apples when the seeds
are black. but this is not safe cri-
terion upon which to go. For exam
pie, often such varieties as the
Wea lthy, Wagner, Winesap and
Grimes Golden drop badly when they
are ripe. That the Spy and Ben Davis
as a rule can hang longer than most
of the other varieties. That the Jona-
than has a tendency to develop core
rot if allowed to hang on the tree too
long. Certain apples tend to become
too mellow, mushy or dry after pick
ing such as the Baldwin, King of
Tompkins County and Jonathan This
can be remeded by early picking, al
though we may have to sacrifice some
color at times in order to achieve it..
There are a few apples which often
drop badly before they are thorough
Iy ripe. or at the best stage for pick
ing The Macintosh Red, the Snow
and the Gravenstein often seem to be
troubled this way. Then, again, a
large number of varieties, and more
especially the Jonathan, crack at the
calyx, which is an indication of tardy
picking. Dropping is sometimes in
fluenced by frost, but nearly all our
commercial varieties will drop badly
if we experience unusually heavy fall
frosts. The colors are influenced to
a certain degree by picking, although
the reds are rarely Influenced after
picking: the yellows are to a certain
degree in that the greens and light
yellows will deepen, and their combi-
nations at times with the reds leads
us to believe that all colors change
very materially. The size Of an ap-
pie can be Influenced to quite large
degree by picking. AS we come to
learn more and more the desired
sizes, the amount of thinning and the
time of picking will probably have
some influence on the size that we
obtain. Flavor is not good criterion
to go by in picking apples. as very
few winter apples, and even some fall
varieties, do not obtain their highest
flavor until they have mellowed to a
certain degree in storage.
Gentle Twist of the Wrist
Apples should be picked by gentle
twist of the wrist, and care should be
taken not to pull out the stem or
break the spur. Steps should be

ia ken to handle the fruit in such a
way that the skin is never punctured.
for if it is it gives a chance for rots
and decays to start in and the life of
the fruit will be greatly shortened.
The time for picking pears is of
great importance, especially with all
winter and fall varieties. They
should be picked green. Just as soon
as they have obtained the desired
size. When ever a pear will snar
easily from the stem or spur by a
slight twist of the wrist is will ma
ture in good shape. The season for
picking pears can be greatly length
ened, and the weight of fruit greatly
increased by beginning early and pick
ing the fruit just as fast as they reach
the desired size. Whenever pears are
troubled with core rot or dry or gran
ular flesh the indications are that the
fruit has remained on the tree too
long. The pears are picked green in
boxes and in fact ripen in boxes bet
the open.
Skill in Peach Picking
There is probably no fruit which
requires more skill in picking than
the peach. Especially is this true in
relation to the proper time for pick
ing. The personal experience of the
grower must come into play largely
with this fruit. The time of picking
will be Influenced by soils, elevations.
variety and climatic conditions. 1t is
always desirable to have as much
color as possible. although Tor e5-
treme distances in shipping we often
| sacrifice the color. or course, for
long distance shipping the fruit must
be picked green, while for local trade
or short shippings the fruit can be
allowed to nearly ripen before pick
ing. While the color may AZ times be
used as an index for prope, picking, i,
cannot be adopted as general rule
Some men say pick the peaches when
green and just beginning to ripen and
traces of yellow show Others depend
almost entirely upon the touch or feel
ing of the fruit, and probably in the

determines by slight pressure. is :,
safe indication. Whenever the pres
