This is what about 80% of our crop looks like. It is likely a higher loss, but we are trying really hard to be optimistic.
Gala in the Avery Section
Foliage isn't looking great either, however this is pretty minor compared to other areas.
Noticed some cankering in this tree, but wasn't able to find cankers in other trees.
Still the same Gala tree. Fruit is pretty small in size. Trees are not heavily loaded and plenty of rain this year so these variables shouldn't be an issue as far as fruit size goes.
Another canker in the same tree. Again, while inspecting the other trees, this was the only tree that had obvious cankers.
Jonagold in Avery Section.
Foliage in the Jonagold tree.
Braeburn foliage. Fruit looks awful as well.

Gala north of the windbreak.
Granny Smith Foliage.
Fruit size in the Gala section.
I hear there is money in apple wood...

Oh dear, that doesn't look very good! Is there any way to get rid of it?
