MM111 or Bud-9?

Hoping not to beat a dead horse, here’s what I harvested today from a 6-year old Rox Russet on MM.111. See the linked post. The ~230 apples in the big bin (left) came off the tree. The uncounted number in the small (right) bin were drops, mixed in with some Liberty and Black Oxford. Probably ~300 RR in total. Then separately I picked ~50 off a 4-year old dwarf tree.

If you have a use for, say, 1500 apples (300 x 5 trees) or more, great. But some people find excess fruit to be a pain. Not me. We eat them ourselves, give them to friends, give them to the local food bank, and press them for cider. If 250 (e.g., 50 x 5) sounds better, stick with the dwarf.
