Re: [nafex] liberty apple

[Sam Franc <franc@oregonfast.net>]

Are you sure it is a liberty.
I have been growing liberty for quite a while and I do not find that
they are very tart.
In fact it is one of the better ones in the taste tests I have run.
Last year it was 6.09 on 9/18 and rose to 8.75 on 10/18.
8.75 was the highest rating gotten on a scale of 1 to 10.
This was against 15 other varieties.
Maybe you picked them unripened.
Did you check the color of the seeds.
