Post them pictures in the thread on how your fruit set is looking so far! I’ll be back to my piece of paradise over the 4th so not sure how mine even look.
 
How about some ripe ones:

Redfield on B.118, second year. This was way too much fruit on such a young tree, so I pruned roughly 60% of pictured crop. Nevertheless, this seems to bode well for future yields.

20200626_190257.jpgHere's a wild tree that just won't give up. It started life about 20 feet back in the brush and apparently at some point broke and fell over but the brush held it up and it continued to grow out toward the field for sunlight. It is one of my most productive trees on the farm. The deer feed on the apples all through Oct. Under the cover of the brush. The literally have made a tunnel through the brush to feed on the fallen apples.

Hate to admit, haven't even looked closely at the crabapples or pears out in my fields but can share a few pics of fruit growing closer to the house.

Muscadines looking like they'll be fairly productive again this year.

Fig bush I had to cut to the ground a few years ago due to ambrosia boring beetles is now about 16' wide, over 10' tall and slap loaded with fruit.

Looks like I'll have a few peaches this year.

While young trees have dropped some fruit, pretty sure I'll get some oriental Jiro persimmons as well.

Even have a few of my very young citrus trees putting out a few fruit (pulled most to help tree growth / keep very young limbs from breaking).

This picture probably isn’t real impressive to most. BUT the cool thing is that this is the very FIRST apple from trees I grafted myself. I believe this is a 5th year Zestar.

Well done BuckSnort. Funny how your grafts can become your babies... watch 'em grow and bear fruit.
 
Not a great fruit set because of a late frost. Stupid late frost may have even claimed an Arkansas Black and a NY Bonkers.

....hit my Tapatalk picture amount......
Breaky, frostbite, Kerr, centennial, chestnut and Whitney all have apples. Some of those trees only have 1 or 2 to try.

Only fruit I have now is the wild pawpaw and rasp/blackberries.....the late frost here pretty much wiped out all my fruit. I think I have like 3 apples in a total of like 6 mature trees!
