Homeowner Growing and Maintenance TipsGolden Delicious will produce regular and heavy annual crops of fine apples if thinned properly. Overload it with lots of small fuit and next years crop will be much less! Thin it early and agressively. The tree is open and spreading and easy to trim and train. It is usually a good pollinator for other varieties, except Gala, Jonagold, and others that have known Golden Delicious heritage. It blooms mid-late season and is quite hardy. One of the easiest and most dependable apples to grow.
