Apples galore

[PickettSFHunter]

All of my trees are loaded this year, at least the ones that the bears haven't previously killed. Wouldn't this be great for deer? Yeah well the bears have already started destroying them even though no varieties are even close to ripe. This happens every year, I've never gotten a ripe apple, a deer has never gotten a ripe apple. Just remember if you have bears anywhere near your area, forget fruit trees. I have lost thousands of $. Very frustrating.

That would sure be frustrating. I'd have some decisions to make, even if they aren't the most popular decisions

Buddy of mine in middle TN said his apple trees are loaded as well.....told me this morning it's the most he's ever seen on his trees.

It looks like you could get an ok to do something about stuff like that. Ridiculous.

I wonder if bears respect hot wire (electrified fencing)? If they do, may be worth it to rig one up on a solar panel since you have invested so much time in that orchard

I have some new trees. Last year had one apple. This year the trees are loaded with apples, except for the tree that had the one apple. Strange.
