Hi Can anyone help as I'm not sure what to do. My two apple trees have set fruit and they are growing nicely but I have also got lots of new growth shoots which are now about 12 to 15 inches in length. Should I leave them or take them off to channel effort into producing the fruit? Many thanks for any advice

If growing from the base one would consider removing then so one has a single trunk. Was removing such yesterday.
