Abstract
Abstract A joint application of paclobutrazol to soil and Promalin paint to branches before the second growth season combined paclobutrazol flower spur induction and Promalin branching effects to produce compact and well‐branched ‘Bing’ sweet cherry trees. Paclobutrazol and paclobutrazol + Promalin advanced bloom date by 6–7 days, and delayed harvest by about 4 days as compared with other treatments. The effect of Promalin combined with paclobutrazol persisted for over one year, improving fruit set compared with trees treated with paclobutrazol only and also producing the greatest rate of fruit growth up to 24 days after anthesis. The heaviest fruit was produced by application of paclobutrazol, followed by paclobutrazol+Promalin, control, and Promalin trees. In the third year after planting, trees treated with paclobutrazol+Promalin yielded 4.4 kg of cherries whereas trees treated with Promalin or paclobutrazol and control trees yielded 2.2, 1.8, and 2.0 kg, respectively.
