Can Monterey Florel Brand Growth Regulator be applied to crabapple trees that are just budding, there are no blooms? This was applied by an Arborist company to 2 of my apple trees.

Answer:

According to the product label, applications of Monterey Florel Brand Growth Regulator should be made at the mid to full bloom stage, prior to fruit set in spray volumes sufficient to wet, but not to runoff. Failure to wet blooms thoroughly will cause incomplete fruit elimination. Spraying too much (until runoff) may cause some defoliation or other plant injury. 

Sprays applied too early or too late will be less effective and result in incomplete fruit elimination
