They are harvested (down there) in our spring and still have some life in them.<br /><br />Or, find an early apple that you like. Vista Bella is coming soon, for instance; maybe that will scratch the itch for now.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06245776593991049317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8647355176632077968.post-20838840204799099332018-07-23T06:39:58.005-04:002018-07-23T06:39:58.005-04:00typo: should read "apples" before "...typo: should read "apples" before "Empire"Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14876946697028231187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8647355176632077968.post-76383070066604328202018-07-23T06:37:13.121-04:002018-07-23T06:37:13.121-04:00Stumbled across your blog trying to learn if July ...Stumbled across your blog trying to learn if July is a bad time for apples. Here in Upstate New York, my favorite apple, Empire, have not been good lately. This week I tied Fuji and they are marginal too. Is it the drought? Is there a better varietal for summer?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14876946697028231187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8647355176632077968.post-81962890100240505502018-07-20T18:18:18.743-04:002018-07-20T18:18:18.743-04:00We don't usually see Mollie until the end of A...We don't usually see Mollie until the end of August. And these early Lodi are frankly not so hot. But I look forward to Vista Bella soon, and maybe some Williams Pride.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06245776593991049317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8647355176632077968.post-57297049554505005042018-07-19T10:59:13.678-04:002018-07-19T10:59:13.678-04:00I, too, look forward to the first fresh apples of ...I, too, look forward to the first fresh apples of the season. None here yet. <br /><br />I do need to check more often at a nearby Sunday afternoon farmer's market. A couple years ago there was an orchardist who has Mollies Delicious and Chenago Strawberry along with a couple others I don't recall. I didn't see him there last year.CopperKnighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05910050712694930988noreply@blogger.com
