I am pruning 7 or 8 of my original apple trees. They are 11 years old. Last year frost and perhaps over production from prior year resulted in no fruit. Having fertilized in March and good moisture all year I now have a gazillion water sprouts . I know you are not suppose to take off more than 25% of the wood in one year. If I take out all the wAter sprouts and any general pruning I will be over 25%. What should I do?
