Happy Birthday Nick. I have a Buckley Giant Tree here south of Seattle that has the same problem with every bug swarming them and they are pretty aromatic. I don't get many but the Buckley's are really good. Strangely, my Red Gravenstein which is also very aromatic does not get bothered much by bugs.
Liberty is pretty awesome for the home orchard because its fruit size is more sensitive to thinning than other varieties. If you want a bunch of smaller lunchbox sized apples, don’t thin, but if you want larger apples, you can thin!
Happy Belated B-Day. Btw you mentioned you are in the Pacific North West. I live in the Bay Area and I have been in search for a Apple that was served in my elementary school. Obviously I’ve tried everything on sale at the grocery stores and none of them are it. After some research I found there are hundreds and hundreds of Apple varieties. A friend of mine told me to go to Placerville which has a place called Apple Hill. For nostalgia’s sake I really want to find that apple. It was red in skin color but had a bit of a berry flavor
I grow Ahmead's kernel, grimes golden, golden russet, mutsu, and norfolk royal russet to name a few of my favorites. I love yellow apples and mostly grow ugly heirloom triploids. I got frost bite amd sweet sixteen for pollinators but are great eating apples better than honey crisp. Honey crisp don't have the brix levels like it's grand parents. My mom has a pixie crunch that is really good fresh.
I love the gold rush apple too. It is excellent. It is later in the season, and you are right that it keeps well. Nice video, keep up the good work. For market a really good early eating apple I have found Williams Pride. Here in eastern Kentucky it ripens in the last half of July. It has great color an a surprisingly good flavor for so early. It has also been at least partly self fertile in my orchard. The leaves and fruit get no diseases here for me. Just wondered if you have tried this one in your orchard?
Can you also tell me how large these trees are that you sell & when you would recommend planting them ? I live in southwest Colorado ( Ridgway ) zone 5 b or a . Thx
Originally known as Co-op 38, the GoldRush comes from the Golden Delicious and Co-op 17. Its disease resistant qualities comes from the Malus floribunda in its pedigree.
Props to Cornell! With Liberty and Enterprise, they've bested PRI (GoldRush) and Minnesota (the '-crisp' family) in the 'Battle of the University Breeders'.
bro you're right about spartan.. a perfectly ripe one on the right soil can blow someone's mind when they taste it. Seen that many times. Shame about storage though. Have you noticed before they become too soft to eat, they develop an off flavour which is hard to describe but a bit like burnt caramel which is mainly in the skin. Skin is also quite thick but this is not a problem whilst the apple is firm and crunchy. Definitely you should be adding calcium to all trees IMO. What you will notice is that some varieties that you dismissed before can become like a new one, and the ones you already liked also go next level. I add about 30mg actual Ca per m2 of the footprint of the canopy every two weeks if its a soluble form, Ca acetate is great which you can make easily if you know even the most basic chemistry. Add silicon too, it does a similar thing, not forgetting trace elements too. You can make acetates of those too because they are mostly cations. Calcium silicate, wollastonite, is excellent. I can't find Rubella apple variety on the internet... is that the spelling? I hope I can find goldrush here in UK. I wonder whether it has a similar flavour to pitmason pineapple. It's not a crisp apple at all but has a remarkable flavour with spicy notes
Happy b-day my man. Wondering where someone can find a Rebella tree or scion? Cant find much online except for a $60 tree at Raintree Nursery, and it looks nothing like yours.
I was searching too. I found it on “grandpas orchard” but no link to buy. I intend to call and see if they have any for sale. It seems it’s trademarked as “Bella”. That might help.
@@dns_error g935 or g969, but both can have issues if the scion is infected with viruses. Summer pruning is the best way to keep trees from getting large.
@@francostacy7675 ikr? seems like there could be some interesting information... unfortunately all the chewing into the mic is so off putting I can't get to it.
Hope that you had a wonderful birthday! You are an amazing and hardworking young man! Many blessings to you!
Thank you so much!
Gold Rush keeps like a champ! We have enjoyed it in May/ June of the following season. An amazing apple.
I had one, but it died. I'm jealous 😂

You're a positive classic!
Thanks for sharing video, can this apple variety grow in arid areas of tropical climate?
That’s a question for someone who grows apples in a tropical climate

How would you rate an Envy apple compared to Gold Rush? I haven't tried very many apples.
I have never tried an envy
Envy is a nice apple if it's not too old by the time you buy it in the store. Lightly spicy. Ambrosia is another good one.
So would you say Gold Russet is a good sacrificial crop to keep the bugs off of other apples?
Pigs, chickens, turkeys and ducks love the buggy apples
It doesn’t seem like it helps but rather attracts bugs to your yard.
❤ nice
How can I buy these two varieties from you ? Golden rush & Rabella ? Thx 👍

For me a phermone trap in each tree has been one of the most effective controls.
For what bugs?

Never tried it

I missed this, do you still have rebella for sale?
scion wood
@@hbrown9345 trees yes, scion wood no

EnterPRIse is from the purdue/rutgers/illinois cartel.
I would try traps from Great Lakes IPM.
Will look into it

Try "Rebella."

Russet is my favorite. Had an uncle that had an orchard. Too bad grocery stores will not sell them. They’re ugly.
I WOULD LIKE TO BUY. SOME APPLE TREES FROM YOU. BUT I DONT USE FACEBOOK

Are these genetically modified.
None of these are
G214 and g969 reduce bitter pit, but budagovsky 10 is the best.
for a backyard? i want the tree to be smallest ever, but should stand still without support? bud10 or 9? or g935 probably?

Crunchy apples suck, a Jonathan is a great apple
I gotta find a girl who is resistant to yeast lol 😆 😂 🤣
why would you think people would want to sit and listen to you eat apples?
speak for yourself 🤣

I need to know about taste... before I buy !
