Excerpt from Studies in Orchard Management, Vol. 2: Factors Influencing Fruit Development of the Apple
The development of the apple is dependent on food supply and seed content. Both factors are essential from a practical standpoint.
Apples which fall in the June drop contain fewer seeds than apples which set and develop. There is a high degree of correlation between seed content and weight of apple for both drop and set apples at the time of the June drop.
