Bud Burst on Cherries

Monday Apr 17, 2023

An example of bud burst on a cherry variety.

Reminder: it is time to set your "bud burst" date in the Cherry Mildew Model. Bud Burst is happening in most varieties in the Central/North Okanagan & Kootenay regionsnow. Cherry growers in Southern growing regions should have set their bud burst dates already for your varieties. Each year the cherry mildew model requires this "date" to be entered for each weather station/growing region where you would like to run the model. Set yours and begin to monitor for cherry mildew conditions using the BC-DAS website.
