Re: [nafex] nafex Digest, Vol 239, Issue 3

Lol.

The rootstock is G202, by the way, and yeah, that probably is a runty rootstock.

In addition to all the other problems you mention, there's not enough light in this spot.

Something is making your roots unhappy. Take care of your roots first. Top growth follows root growth. Get rid of all the weeds, put compost down. Take off any fruit. Keep it moist. Next winter cut it back and maybe it will have enough root to send up some top growth.
