There are so many different kind of apples now!!! Kind of leary about how so many are created? Whats you fave apple? I know Granny Smith used to be the one with the lowest sugar conent and they do make you pucker. My go toos are Fuji and Pink Lady...only organic, or course,lol
i like them all but i am a huge granny smith fan. cover that puppy in caramel and nuts and call it a day
I love Fuji apples! I could eat them all day
Fugi for me as well but I like most apples ��
Fuji*
Wow, I just looked up "types of apples" and there are a LOT. I had no idea there were so many lol. I usually just get the red delicious apples.
I like whatever my wife buys, which is usually Granny Smith.
fuji are great. my go to. love honey crisp too, they are a desert for sure but taste so good.
Yes, there are a lot of different apples. The best tasting apples are never sold in stores because they have a very short shelf life. You almost have to eat them right off the tree or they start rotting.The apples sold in stores are apples that have a shelf life of about a month or 2. Red delicious have the longest shelf life of all and are actually very low rated for taste. I hate red delicious apples. They suck. I had a red delicious tree that I dug up and threw away. The apples were terrible.
I have 30 apple trees and about 15 different types. I have fuji, honey crisp, gala, zestar, pink lady, Liberty, Red Baron, etc etc
Sweet Tango apples are by far the best tasting apples that you can buy in stores. They are seasonal and are not always available. If you ever ate sweet tango, you know what I mean. I always look for sweet tango first, if they dont have them, I grab Honeycrisp
Thanks Dzone for APPLE 101! I cant wait to TANGO!Quote:

I planted 2 of these apple trees and have yet to get any apples. I probably wont have any cox orange pippin apples for another 2 or 3 years. The best time to plant an apple tree is 7 years ago lol
Yes, Im happy to answer all your apple questions LOLQuote:
