In the apple growing region in the state of Maine, United States, I visited my friend, an apple farmer. I saw an apple tree that is so dense fruit, so that the branches should be supported so as not to break.
When I expressed admiration for the thick fruit in the apple tree, my friend said, "Examine carefully and check the apple tree." I see it, the apple trees have been hacked all sides.
My friend explained, "That's what we learned about the apple tree. When we grow apple trees tend to grow into timber trees are tall and leafy with no fruit, we stop the growth by injuring him, stab, jab the stem. We do not know why, but the result is almost always the same. tree and change all its energy and produce abundant fruit. "
