Getting Colour Into Apple Trees
Red apple varieties need sunlight to develop good colour, and Farmer Jim from Seven Days Farm explains exactly how to achieve this. He shows you how to open the canopy, remove branches that shade the fruit and leaf‑pluck carefully so the light can reach the apples. These steps work well for Pink Lady, Gala and Red Delicious, with simple adjustments for growers in hotter regions.

It is also incredibly good for you because it contains antioxidants and important nutrients that support healthy nerve, muscle and heart function. In this video, Farmer Steph from Seven Days Farm explains how to get the best results from your passionfruit vines so you can enjoy a strong, productive crop.
