Chestnut Crab

So when does the parent of Trailman which is Trail aka Bilodeau ripen in relation to these?

Noticed my Bilodeau finally has a 1/2 doz apples recently after some patient waiting. Think it is on Antonovka roots

I need to check notes. Not sure if I recorded it.

Photos of Trail and Trailman taken today (Northern Indiana). I'll be picking both this coming week. Trail will turn completely red by the end of August, but the texture starts to go bad at that point (crisp, sweet and juicy earlier). The last photo is an open pollinated Chestunt Crab seedling that fruited for the first time this year. About twice this size of Chestunt crab and looks like it will ripen a couple of weeks later. Looking forward to trying it.

Chestnut has been my best crab. Great eater as well. My treeshave been loaded the last 5 years.
