Visual of Budded Out

[beltechc]

Lots of talk about what budded out means. Is it when the bud gets swollen or when the flower actually starts to pop? Wondering if some people out there could help clarify with some pics. Maybe some pics of what you think is good and some pics of what you think is budded out. Maybe we can come to a good consensus if we see it.

This link will help a bit beltechc. This local recent report is put out by the Ontario government.

You're welcome. If you use the link I'm adding to the end of this post it will take you to the home page and you can see all of the previous reports from this year and past years. Each report is packed with useful reference material and lots of great photos to guide new and experienced sugars through the process.
