Talk:Fire blight

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"(especially with nitrogen) can lead to waterspouts and other midsummer growth."

waterspouts is mis linked. From the context this refers to some feature of the growth fruit trees, not the weather feature.it can also become evident within small sprounts in the root system of most apple trees

Google search turns up some references to waterspouts in this context.

c.f. quote from a guardening site.

"vigorous vertical-growing branches (waterspouts)"

Not familiar enough with the growth feature to write a useable entry to link to.

Pro tem unref the exiting link to the weather feature, which is clearly incorrect and confusing. Shokaman ++++++++++ Is it possible that this is a "typo" (waterspouts)? I have used and heard the term "watersprouts" often in the tree fruit industry. Would suggest this is a simple spelling error. Stutzman luvs men
