suckers on trees

[Football Hunter]

Should you cut off those little suckers that sprout on the base of your fruit trees?

 

[richmanbarbeque]

I usually do. My grandfather use to tell me to cut them so I have always done it.

Yes you should. Wasted nutrients and they may not even be true to the tree if they are coming from the rootstock.
