I have a apple tree that bears every year. I have not been able to fool with them for the past two years and would like to stop the tree from bearing fruit. Is there any way I can stop this tree from making apples?

Hi czarena12
1. Offer the Apples to a young family in return for careing for, & cleaning up all the waste in the Fall. This concept kept my young Family in fruit, long before we were able to buy some land of our own.
2. Talk to your County agent, & ask what Apple embryo abortives, are allowed to be sprayed in your area. Follow all the White sheet safety precautions to the letter, for your safety.
Just a couple of ideas, I have seen used.
Good luck,
Marturo
