Your trees are suffering from Blossom end wilt - a form of canker No need to panic Get out your secateurs now and cut back to healthy wood. Dispose of the wood (burn) and clean secateurs with methylated spirits so that you do not spread it to other apple trees when you prune them One of my trees tends to suffer more than the other - you can apply a preventative spray now and repeat every 14 days using Diathane 945 which is a fungicide that will help. It is unusual though that this causes loss of crop. Cannot offer a reason as to why though Regards Clifford Bawtry, Doncaster, South Yorkshire |
