 thanks will watch, about to be pruning season 
 I think this video mainly applies to pears and apples. I started doing it a couple years ago. It seems to be working well. 
 I have two apple trees and a pear tree 😁 
 Yum. Are your trees producing fruit yet? 
I was watching to refamiliarise myself with the technique. I just ordered two Asian pears. I had good luck with structuring my apple trees. 
 Some yes, three years old at my parents house but I planted them. Others no because we planted this year.

✅ Pear
✅ Peach 1
✅ Fig 1
❌ Apple 1
❌ Fig 2
❌ Peach 2
❌ Apple 2 
 Nice! I’m jealous of the peach. They are not worth the trouble in my climate. 
 That's how I feel about my dad's mango trees further south 
 Mangos! 😋 
 please put a partridge in it at least once 
 where does one get a partridge  
 The partridge store, obviously 
 Oh, duh, muh bad 
 try my new service, parsat, where you send me sats, and then go find a partridge. 
 They prefer open fields, grasslands, and farmland, often in areas with good cover for nesting.
