Unfortunately, the window of opportunity for applying hormone-type sprays is during flowering before fruit set. Spraying before or after flowers results in wasted time and money. Because the tree is large, you may want to consult with a certified arborist for additional cost and information. Please read the leaflet thoroughly; you may find the wife is always right. :) dt, Plant Clinic Bob,
