In the present study we have investigated the influence of fruit thinning on some apricot cultivars which are grown on the commercial plantation ofthe Bucharest area. The main goal was to establish the optimal phase for thinning. For this reason four experimental variants were organized: VI - control, without thinning; V2 - manual thinning at full blooming; V3 - manual thinning at 25 days after blooming; V4 - manual thinning at 50 days after blooming. At the harvest moment, the main physic-chemical characteristics of fruits, the total yield and the efficiency index, were determined. The experiment has demonstrated the economic interest ofthe thinning, without reducing the production and at the same time allowing the increase ofthe medium caliber ofthe fruits and the soluble solids content. The best results were obtained for the variant where the thinning was made 25 days after blossom. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
