Hi all,

My big apple tree right at the back of the garden is producing some really nice apples. The problem is I don't know what kind they are. I've read there are various kinds of apples including cooking varieties so I'm not sure if these can be eaten, juiced or cooked. They are green and that's about all I can say about them

A couple of years back the tree produced over 600 apples and since I couldn't care less at the time they fell down and rotted. I had to manually pick around 600 apples (I know since i put 24 in a bag and I had more than 25 bags). I know it was a terrible waste and was left feeling incredibly guilty. So I want to make sure it doesn't happen again. How do you guys recommend I identify these apples? Since they will mostly ripen at the same time, I was thinking of juicing them and freezing the juice so it should last me a good few months.

Any help will be greatly appreciated
