Guest guest Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Oooh, this just reminded me of an issue I have... We moved to this property a year ago (purchased from my in-laws). There are 3 great apple trees here. Unfortunately, the apples are *awful*...each and every one of them...they are so buggy or diseased (I don't really know which it is) that I can't even just cut out the bad spots because the whole apple is bad. I remember years ago, they used to produce beautiful, yummy fruit. The last several years, they have not. When I cut into the apple, the inside is dotted all brown. I don't know enough about apples/apple trees to know if this is an insect problem or something else. Does anyone have any ideas what it is? And what I can do about it come spring? It's a shame...3 trees produces a lot of fruit and I want to be able to use it instead of just letting the squirrels have them (though I appreciate that they pick them up off the ground for me. ).
