Ginda,

I thought someone more knowledgeable might answer by now.

I wonder if you have cedar apple rust?

I know pear rellis rust very well and I think your symptoms sound like they
may be
cedar apple rust.

The russeting is probably due to cold weather soon after pollination ... or it
could be due to sprays of some chemicals.

: swelling of green tissue, with little fuzzy "hairs" emerging. They are

: not an attached insect. Does anyone know what this is? A large
: fraction of the apples (a small yellow seedling crab) seem to be heavily
