Normally we pick our Hudson Golden Gems in mid October, here in theChicago area. Our tree is usually loaded, so we do aggressive thinning. The apples are now about full size, but still somewhat green. Problem is that they are dropping, about 5-10 each day for the past week. The fallen apples are not ripe. We are having an early season this year for rippening, but that does not explain this apple drop. The big drop is usually in June when the apples are much smaller. Any ideas as to why this is happening?
