Episode Synopsis

Don, Kari, Shan, and Greg unpack the season’s rollercoaster: a soggy May that drove scab, rust, and bitter rot risk, followed by a dry, color‑rich harvest window. We lay out infection windows, what worked for Honeycrisp, why alternate row coverage backfired, and how to prep smarter for next season.Photo Credit: Lindsay Brown, Penn StateMusic Credit: “The Raven and the Swan” by Josh Woodward is licensed under a Attribution 3.0 United States License.
