Here's the steps in pruning an apple tree..
-quote-
"Trimming your apple trees must be done every year in order to keep producing healthy, large apples. Read on to learn how to trim apple trees.
Things You'll Need:
* Pruning shears
Instructions
Step 1
Wait until the fall to late winter to trim your trees.
Step 2
Cut off all suckers and small branches. Cut small branches that grow straight up from larger ones.
Step 3
If you want to limit tree growth, crop off the top center of the apple tree.
Step 4
If there are places where the tree has grown too thick, prune back some of the branches in that area. This leaves room for apples to grow."
