I have an apple tree that produces tart green (some blush) 2-4 inch
apples. The tree is loaded and apples are falling. When I started
picking I noticed that there are green spots embedded in the flesh of
the apple. They can be found from the skin to the core. The first
time I saw this I thought unripe apples are really green and tossed
them. Now its a month later and the green spots are still there. I
tried one and the apple seems ripe and starting to get soft.

Is this normal? Can I juice or eat them?

Yes

Where are placed the green spots? For example are at the bottom of the
apple? Are there really green, or ...maybe bluish?

The spots are evenly distributed throughout the apple. The ones I
found earlier were mostly green. The most recent less than 10
percent, in a vertical pattern. The spots are definitely apple green.
