Interested to hear your experience how Krymsk-1 is working out for plum (European and Japanese). Vigor, fruiting, pruning etc. Post a few pictures of your tree.

Here’s my planting on K1 spaced 5ft x 1.5ft.

Training high density trellised pluot and apricot, my plan - General Fruit Growing - Growing Fruit

Greenhouse fruit update - General Fruit Growing - Growing Fruit

The rootstocks were planted Febr 2014, budded in June 2014, and started bearing in 2015. One of my better horticultural feats.

The pluots are probably going to behave the same as regular Japanese plums.
