Application of 1500-3000 ppm butanedionic acid mono-(2,2-dimethylhydrazide) (daminozide) from mid-August to mid-October increased fruit set the following year on Mutsu, McIntosh, Cortland, Delicious, and Spencer apples. Fruit set was increased more from the carry-over effects from a fall treatment than from a postbloom spray. Fruit size and L/D ration were reduced following a fall treatment.
