We have apple trees in our back yard my father platted 20 years ago. i went to pick an apple to see if they are ready.

The granny smiths have dark spots on them that rub off with a wet towel.

    These are most common ally called "rust spots" and come from excessive rain. Wash with water and rub spots off with a clean towel and enjoy!
