Fruit Tree Dormancy

[BigGuyNY]

Being that I live in the north, I was wondering if it is possible to take some of my smaller fruit trees that are still dormant and bring them inside as to give them a head start on the season. I know that there are required chill hours for different trees. So if that is met can they be brought from the cold directly into a warm house?

If you are planning on planting them within the next year or so I'd leave them out and get used to the real chill season. I mean you had em out this long. Problem with taking them in now is they will start to leaf inside and when you put them back out to early it could shock them. I'd say your better off leaving them be and let them Leaf when they are ready to normally.

I wouldn't bring them in..moving them back out later will do more harm than good...

Sounds like a not too good idea.
