Re: pomace seedlings 

Is there any data or experience in growing from seed versus grafting - 
specifically whether or not the seedlings naturalize better and will be 
more likely to thrive in regions that maybe are not perfectly suited to 
growing apples? 

Thank you,

   Anybody have favorite vids of mill operations that they could post links 
to? I work in a mid sized mill and we're getting in a lot of strp-picked 
fruit with lots of budwood attached, as well as grass laden drops. I'm 
particularly interested in seeing how other people deal with debris 
removal. Our grinder can handle it, I'm more concerned with the ability of 
the washer to do its job.

Autumn, thanks for the advice about perry pears, I did blend them in even 
though brown and now I'm glad. 
Pome and stone fruit seeds will grow even after being fermented. I grew a 
large patch by throwing out many 5 gallon buckets of lees and used some of 
them for rootstock. I called them "mi plantancitos de barrachas" (little 
drunken seedlings).
