On the side of our house by the street (corner lot) we have a huge green apple tree that is at least 25 feet tall with a 14 inch diameter trunk that drops tons of green apples every year in June and July. These apples can be pretty huge but don't have much taste, and we don't use them, they end up on the sidewalk and in the street and make a huge mess, attracting flies. Is there a time of year or method that I could really trim this tree up and cut down on fruit production next year? My wife wants me to cut it down, but it's a pretty nice tree, and the biggest one on our property.
