Endo dormancy no more, it’s time for eco dormancy takes role. The environment will determine when the BUD will break. Cultivars/plant/ buds that doesn't meet the satisfaction is unable to break/ delay in bud break. This is a problem for high chill cultivars growth at Northern region. For low chilling cultivars, fluctuation of temperature (warm temperature) will causes Warm spells and then Cold spells occur and kill most of buds that break after enough in accumula...
