Eek, this is the wrong place to complain about your tree fruiting. Most of us spend our time trying to get the tree to fruit and would love tons of Macs dropping all over the place; you might as well ask how to drown puppies.

Save yourself while there's still time!

Fred:

I have to associated myself with the applenut's remarks. We here on the F&O forum are much more concerned with growing fruit than trying to get rid of it.

Having said that, a strong spray with Sevin at blossom time or shortly thereafter will abort most of the fruit before it forms, especially on a McIntosh.

If you like apple blossoms but dislike the fruit, cut down your Mac and plant a flowering crab with tiny apples.
